Katy Perry opened up about one of the biggest mistakes she’s made in her career Friday.
During a question and answer period during a private event for Los Angeles radio station KIIS-FM, the 38-year-old singer admitted she passed on an opportunity to work with then fledgling singer Billie Eilish because she thought her song was ‘boring.’
The Roar singer, who shares daughter Daisy with fiance Orlando Bloom, appeared at the event wearing a pair of green leather pants with a green and white cropped sweater with a maze design.
Big mistake: Katy Perry admitted she made a ‘big mistake’ when she passed on the opportunity to work with an up-and-coming artist several years ago because she thought her song was ‘boring’
Her raven locks were styled in an updo with long tendrils in front to frame her face.
Holding the microphone, she explained to the audience that a friend ‘sent me an email one time that was: ‘Hey, check out this new artist. I’d really like us to work with her because she was working with me for Unsub [Records].’
‘It was a song called Ocean Eyes, and it was just a blonde girl, and I was like, “Meh, boring.”’
Email: Katy made the admission during a private event for LA radio station KIIS-FM, revealing a friend sent her an email suggesting she check out the new artist
‘Big mistake, huge mistake,’ she added.
She then joked, ‘Don’t let this hit the internet.’
That was way back in 2016. Since then, Billie has gone on to win multiple Grammy awards, plus a Golden Globe Award and an Oscar for her song No Time To Die from Daniel Craig’s swan song as James Bond in the thriller by the same name.

Billie’s concert, Live at the O2, opened Friday and is currently playing in theaters across the US.
The Lovely singer snuck into a showing and shared a photo of her feet as she laid back in a recliner seat enjoying the film.
Now that the cat is out of the bag, perhaps Katy and Billie could collaborate when the California Gurls artist resumes her Las Vegas residency in February.
