Pop sensation Katy Perry will bring her “California Dreams 2011 World Tour” to the KFC Yum! Center on Saturday, Sept. 10 with special guests Janelle Monáe and DJ Skeet Skeet.

Tickets for this sure to be exciting show go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, April 22.

Perry added the Louisville show and several additional dates to the North American leg, of her world tour that already includes sold-out shows in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

Her most recent single, “E.T.,” from her Grammy-nominated album “Teenage Dream” has solidified its place at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart for three weeks and counting. “E.T.” follows the lead of Perry’s other hit singles, “California Gurls,” “Teenage Dream” and “Firework,” by capturing the No. 1 spot.

The album “Teenage Dream” is also setting milestones as it’s the first album in more than six years to yield four No. 1 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and the first by a solo female artist in almost two decades since Mariah Carey did so with her debut album in 1990-1991. Also, it is only the ninth album to produce four No. 1 hits in the 52-year history of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

 
Perry’s Sept. 10 show at the KFC Yum! Center will begin at 7:30 p.m. and is produced by The Messina Group / AEG Live.
