“Hi everyone. I know, I know, it’s crazy. It’s so late, it’s so cold outside. You had way too much sugar,” Katy said. “You don’t know whether to stay or go, or be in or out, or hot or cold. Just make up your mind then!”
So, why were people leaving early during Katy Perry‘s set? Turns out, they were just trying to make sure to catch the last trains!
While Katy performed at the end of the night, the last trains out of the city were about to leave and everyone was rushing to get on them. One fan even commented on TikTok that she stayed through to the end of the concert and was stranded in NYC until 4am!
