AceShowbiz - With just a few days away from the August 12 release of her "Prism" album lead single "Roar", Katy Perry is not letting up on the under-30-second teasers. The pop superstar lets a white cat hog the spotlight in the latest clip in her teaser series to demonstrate her transformation from an adorable to a fierce feline.
Entitled "From a Meow to a Roar", the clip features a white kitty which hops onto a sofa to feast on a feathered toy then lets out a mild, uncharacteristic roar. As the previously announced single release date is flashed, fans of the 28-year-old singer get to hear a brief snippet of her much-anticipated new song, a few fleeting seconds of "whoa-oh-oh's" set to mid-tempo beats.
"This one's for the kittens. It's time to make those meows #ROAR," tweeted Perry to caption the clip she posted on Twitter. Indeed, as co-composer Bonnie McKee previously described, the upcoming single is a "more mature" tune for the "Teenage Dream" singer where "she's taking a new approach."
"From a Meow to a Roar" is the third installment of teasers released over the past week for "Roar", after the first "Burning Baby Blue" where she sets fire to her signature blue wig and the second "The Third Coming" set in a funeral for Perry's spinning peppermint corset symbolizing the demise of her old candy-coated image.
