Katy Perry Makes an Appearance on Good Morning America



Katy Perry made an appearance in Good Morning America earlier today, clad in a sunny, surprisingly demure daisy printed dress to unveil the cover of her next album, "Prism." Good Morning America is also collaborating on the ROAR Katy Perry contest, which calls for high school students to record themselves and their classmates performing their own rendition of Perry’s no. 1 single. The winner’s school will receive a live concert by Perry on October 25, 2013, the singer/songwriter's 29th birthday.

Mariah Carey Performs Live In Central Park For Good Morning America Summer Concert Series

Mariah Carey, one of the best-selling music artists of all time, performed live in Central Park's Rumsey Playfield early this morning for ABC Television's Good Morning America Summer Concert Series. In one segment, Mariah wore a gorgeous light pink Versace sequined gown which "malfunctioned." During the show, the back of the gown popped open but the situation got fixed. Mariah first performed the hit song "Always Be My Baby", and then offered the first-ever live performance of her new single, “#Beautiful,” featuring Miguel. Carey has won five Grammy Awards, 17 World Music Awards, 11 American Music Awards, and 31 Billboard Music Awards. She is known for her five-octave vocal range and signature use of the whistle register. Good Morning America, America's reigning favorite morning program offers a free summer concert series at the Rumsey Playfield which is located right off the 5th Avenue and 72nd Street entrance to Central Park.
