On Monday night, Katy, 39, revealed that the upcoming season of American Idol will be her last following years of mixed reactions from viewers.
Since then, it seemed she’s been trying to avoid the host of the show Ryan Seacrest, 49.
In pH๏τos taken on Thursday, the cast of the compeтιтion show spent time at the Aulani Disney Resort in Kapolei, Hawaii.
They were filming for the upcoming season of American Idol while hanging out with Minnie and Mickey in their floral outfits.
“I noticed interactions between Katy and Ryan Seacrest were pretty icy and they would only interact when the cameras were rolling,” an eyewitness to the filming said.
“Otherwise, they would just pᴀss each other and not even look in each other’s direction.”
“For the most part, Katy kept to herself unlike prior years on set, and there really seemed to be a distance between herself and the other judges,” they continued.
“She has always been particularly close with Luke Bryan and Lionel but this year, she would film her segment and leave the set as soon as she could.”
BYE BYE IDOL
After six years on the judges’ panel, Katy announced she’s leaving the series.
On Monday, she announced she was leaving the long-running show after seven seasons.
After the season, the Dark Horse singer plans to exit the show to focus on new music.
While discussing her decision on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Katy explained: “So I think this will probably be my last season for Idol.
“I love Idol so much. It’s connected me with the heart of America, but I need to feel that pulse of my own beat.
“I love the show so much but I wanna go and see the world and maybe bring new music.”
“Well, you know, this fall, this September, I’m going to be doing this huge music festival in Brazil called Rock in Rio. It’s really exciting,” she added.
“It’s a big deal for people all over the world, especially my Brazilian fans.
“So it’s going to be a very, very exciting year … for all popstar girlies.
“Maybe I’ll come back if they’ll have me one day!”
NEW MUSIC
With the news that Katy is moving on, her fans think she’s dropping a new album next – especially since they’ve been begging the star to release new music.
Katy teased her career moves in an Instagram post, capturing her posing in a Sєxy skinтιԍнт black dress with a plunging neckline and large cutouts at her midsection.
It was held together with numerous silver ʙuттerfly pins, a symbol that has appeared in several of her music videos.
She wore her dark, black locks in an updo, with long dangled earrings and a full face of makeup.
Katy mentioned in her caption her exit from Idol and gig headlining the Rock In Rio Music Festival in Brazil this summer.
