Despite her pompous hat, she kept trying to get a comprehensive view of the surroundings. The US singer and songwriter seemed increasingly confused. The clip of Perry trying to find a seat went viral.
The fact that her appearance on the net was commented on diligently did not go unnoticed by the musician and so she published the relieving information a short time later via Twitter: “Don’t worry people, I’ve found my place,” she shared the good news with the world .
Her casual handling of the situation again caused a lot of reactions on social media. Ironic sayings ranging from “I was so worried, but thank god!” to “Wait for more updates […] you look great” followed. In addition, users also had questions such as: “Could the people behind you even see anything with your big hat?” and “How long did you have to look for your seat?”
