Katy Perry has said that she will "never forget" being pregnant while the world is battling the coronavirus pandemic. The I Kissed a Girl singer is expecting her first child with actor Orlando Bloom, and while speaking to Ryan Seacrest during the first at-home episode of American Idol on Sunday night, she opened up about the realities of being pregnant during the COVID-19 outbreak. "I'm doing well. Thank you. When I look back at this time, it will be a time I never forget. My first pregnancy, in a pandemic, having cravings that I can't necessarily fill if I want to," Katy replied after Seacrest asked how she was faring.

In a Facebook Live before the episode, she also discussed the technicalities of getting the "historic" episode of American Idol on air. "We didn't want to cancel the show, and we're really serious about these kids' dreams. And we knew we were not far off from picking a winner," the 35-year-old said. "So, all the producers and creatives and logistical people behind the scenes put together an incredible idea, to film the show from our homes." "Everybody got the same kit, because fairness is very important for everyone. So, they got the same mic, they got the same iPhones, a ring light. And they're doing it from their living rooms, and they're doing it from their kitchens and they're doing it from their backyards... Basically, everybody had to do their own set-up," she continued. Katy and her fellow judges, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan, all appeared on the show from their respective homes. "This is probably the most excited I've been in a very long time. Because I can actually say I have never done this before in my entire career," Katy added.

At the end of the short film, the singer is seen cradling her baby bump.

Not only will I be giving birth, literally, and figuratively… to something you guys have been waiting for. “I’m excited, we’re excited, and happy. It’s probably the longest secret I’ve ever had to keep. I thought I would tell you guys in the best way through a piece of music. While it’s not the lead single, it’s a good way to start out. I had to reveal it [the pregnancy] at some point." [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/xkatycatsarah/status/1235440855940382720]]
