Katy Perry showed off her incredible figure in a tiny zebra-print bikini to film a raucous new music video in Ibiza on Sunday.
The pop superstar, who is said to be engrossed in ‘crisis talks’ following the failure of her comeback single Woman’s World, flaunted her gorgeous curves in the swimwear.
She had her toned abs and lithe legs on display in the beachwear as she posed with a hunky extra and danced on the beach to shoot scenes.
Katy accessorised with a statement gold necklace and wore her dark brunette tresses in beachy waves while opting for glamorous makeup.
She later covered up in a stylish white crochet dress and added matching shades to her look as she posed up a storm.

She was also seen dancing away on the boat and enjoying drinks with pals before swimming out to the beach and sand dunes to shoot more scenes
Katy was seen frolicking in the sea and surrounding cliffs which was the perfect party music video location.
The music video being shot with no doubt appear on her upcoming album 143, which is to be released on September 20.
Katy’s outing comes after DailyMail.com revealed she is ‘pointing the fingers at everyone but herself’ after her comeback single, Woman’s World, failed to set the charts alight.
Insiders claim she is desperately scrambling to devise a new plan to save her musical comeback.
The singer released the lead single from her forthcoming seventh studio album 143 this month, but the track – billed as an empowering feminist anthem – was quickly dismissed as unoriginal, hypocritical and formulaic.
The Teenage Dream hitmaker also faced criticism for the sexualised nature of the accompanying video, as well as her decision to work with music producer Dr. Luke, 50, after his highly publicised legal battle with Tick Tock singer Kesha, 37.
With the single plummeting down the US iTunes chart less than a week since its July 11 release, Katy is said to be ‘freaking out’ and demanding that her team go ‘back to the drawing board’ to save her album from suffering the same fate.

‘Katy is freaking out right now because she is very aware of the feedback that Woman’s World is getting,’ an insider exclusively told DailyMail.com.
‘She is pointing the fingers at everyone but herself, but it is her own fault.’
The source claimed the biggest risk Katy had taken was reconnecting with Dr. Luke – the music producer who worked on her hit singles including 2008’s I Kissed a Girl and 2010’s California Gurls before later being accused of sexual, physical, and emotional abuse by Kesha.
The super producer, whose real name is Łukasz Gottwald, denied all allegations, including Kesha’s claim that he raped Katy – something she shut down.
A New York state judge ruled against Kesha in 2020 saying she had defamed her former producer with the claim, and an appeals court upheld that decision in 2021.
Music lovers have been vocal about their disdain for any artist choosing to work with the hitmaker following Kesha’s allegations, despite the pair reaching a settlement in 2023.
Some of Katy’s fans have defended the star by claiming she was forced to work with Dr. Luke due to contractual obligations. But Katy previously confirmed that she has no ties with the producer.
During her 2018 deposition for Kesha’s suit against Dr. Luke, Katy confirmed that she had only ever signed a three-album publishing deal with Dr. Luke’s Kemosabe Records and that the pair were no longer in a contractual relationship.
She also acknowledged what the public feedback would be if she chose to collaborate with Dr. Luke amid his battle with Kesha.
‘Working with him at this moment would mean – would not be – would not be received well because of this lawsuit,’ she stated.
When asked if she thought working with Dr. Luke would have a potential impact on the success of a future release, the Dark Horse singer responded: ‘[People would] protest against it, a smear campaign, just 20 different narratives than the one that I am.’
After DailyMail.com previously revealed that Katy had been warned not collaborate with Dr. Luke for the new album, the source confirmed that the Roar singer had ignored pleas.
‘She was insane to think that Dr. Luke was a good idea. She didn’t listen to anyone’, the insider stated. ‘Instead of diving deep and creating art she put something out that sounded like it could have been on an album of hers from 2010.’
Not only did the track see Katy team up with the producer, the track was also mainly written alongside men.

Dr. Luke, Aaron Joseph, Vaughn Oliver, and Rocco Did It Again! all co-wrote and produced the track – while Katy and Chloe Angelides are the only women who helped pen the song.
Not a single woman produced the album.
‘You don’t make a song about female empowerment with basically all men,’ the source said.
‘Katy cannot identify with other women because she lives in her celebrity bubble. She knows nothing about what it is like to be a woman in the real world.
‘She is not using her star power to make change in the world – she is using it to make money.’
