Katy Perry confirmed her Grammys performance (opens in new tab) on Twitter and then *very* slyly began teasing her (opens in new tab) newest song "Chained to the Rhythm" in the most Katy Perry way possible: with disco balls cryptically placed (opens in new tab) all over. Lo and behold, when her Grammy performance rolled around, Perry gave us a full-blown performance of the new reggae-inspired song.
Showing off her newly bleached-blonde (opens in new tab) locks, Perry performed in a white suit (another political nod (opens in new tab) for the evening? ) with Bob Marley's grandson Skip Marley. And—wait for it—ended the song, arms raised, with an exclamation of "No Hate!" before a backdrop of the Constitution.
Consider this the ultimate *mic drop* from the historically outspoken singer.
See the best moments from her performance below:
