Last night’s episode of “American Idol” was Disney-themed, and judge Katy Perry could not have picked a better character to emulate.
“I just feel like this whole time has been a true Cinderella story,” Perry told Entertainment Tonight of her time on the show, dressed as the princess.
Similar to Cinderella at the ball, Perry’s time as a judge is about to expire – next week’s finale will be her last episode.

She shed light on what it will be like shooting the season 22 finale.
“I’m gonna stay present and take it all in and then have a little after-party and Luke [Bryan] and I will finally drink. After seven years, we’ll really drink,” Perry said.
Perry, Bryan and Lionel Richie have served as judges on “American Idol” since the reboot of the show in 2018.

In February, Perry confirmed during an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” that she would be exiting “American Idol.” At the time, Perry said Bryan and Richie would learn of her exit when they watched her appearance. “They know that I have some things planned for this year,” she added.

“Me and her and Lionel, we’ve all leaned on each other… It’ll be a little tough knowing that she’s not going to be there.”

Perry’s stint on “American Idol” has not been without issues. Season 21 was a media circus for Perry as she at times was booed by fans. She was accused of “mom-shaming” a contestant during auditions.
Perry has hinted that she is leaving the show to focus on her music career, with fans speculating her sixth studio album will be dropped in the near future.
