Katy Perry shared moments from her recent visit to Trevi Fountain, posting images and a video from Rome on social media following a private performance in the city.

The singer uploaded a series of photos on Instagram, captioned, "Just Rome'ing around," showing her posing at several locations across the Italian capital.

In one video, Perry is seen placing her credit card into the Trevi Fountain, referencing a personal interpretation of the long-standing tradition associated with the site.

"Y'all, I told you in Save as Draft that I don't f**k with change," she began, referencing a lyric from her 2017 song. "But I feel like I need to put something in the Trevi Fountain for good luck."

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The Trevi Fountain is known for a tradition where visitors throw coins into the water, often linked to beliefs about returning to Rome or having wishes fulfilled.

The visit coincided with a private concert performance at La Nuvola convention centre on Saturday evening. Her appearance in Europe comes shortly after public allegations made by Ruby Rose regarding an alleged incident in Melbourne during her early twenties.

A spokesperson for Victoria Police confirmed last week that an investigation is underway following a report filed by Rose. In response, a representative for Perry denied the claims.
