Katy Perry references song lyric in fountain moment
In a short video clip, Perry explained the reasoning behind the gesture, referencing one of her own lyrics.
“Y’all, I told you in Save as Draft that I don’t f**k with change,”
“But I feel like I need to put something in the Trevi Fountain for good luck.”
The singer, dressed in glasses and a hoodie, kept a low profile as she filmed the moment.
Trevi Fountain tradition explained
The Trevi Fountain is one of Rome’s most famous landmarks, attracting thousands of visitors each day. The long-standing tradition involves throwing coins into the water, often believed to ensure a return to the city or bring good fortune.
Perry’s version, using a credit card instead of coins, offered a light-hearted take on the custom.
Rome visit and private performance
The trip coincided with a private performance at La Nuvola, where Perry performed on Saturday evening.
She also shared a series of photos from around the city, captioning the post:
“Just Rome’ing around,”
