Nutsa wore a navy blue bedazzled sheer dress over a matching slip. She finished off her look with a navy blue leather motorcycle vest. Some of the fans loved her over-the-top performance. Katy Perry was shocked by her dancing.

Luke Bryan said, “That performance embodies why we love you.” Lionel Richie admitted he could feel the energy throughout the room. He can tell that the audience loved it. Katy Perry started out with a compliment but ended it on a sour note. She got booed at the end.

“Nutsa, every time you take the stage, it’s like you glitter bomb it,” Katy Perry said. “Listen, I think that one thing I personally would like to see from you is not one piece of glitter next time. I know it’s going to be hard.”

There were some boos heard throughout the crowd. Luke confirmed that someone in the audience booed the pop star. Meanwhile, Lionel hushed the crowd so that Katy could speak. Katy smiled and said that it was “the first time in six seasons” that she got booed.

She let out a “Woohoo!” Katy Perry told Nutsa that she could “flip the script.” This comes amid the ongoing backlash against her. Fans aren’t liking the comments she’s been serving. They think she’s been shady this season.

Is Katy Perry shady?

Fans can’t help but see through the lines with the judge’s critiques. In that same episode, Katy Perry revealed her thoughts on Dawson Wayne’s performance. He performed his version of Billie Eilish’s “Copycat.” It was a different song for him to take on, but he managed to make it work.

Dawson’s vocals channeled Billie’s quiet vocals. He performed his own haunting rendition that left the audience speechless. Luke and Lionel felt that it was unlike anything he’s ever done. Katy Perry started things off by talking about her fourth studio album, Witness.

“It was a dice roll and I locked in finally when we got back to that moment where you really controlled the room with your voice,” Katy Perry explained. “And then you went, ‘Sike!’ and I was scared of you for the first time.”

Dawson’s performance “freaked” her out. However, American Idol fans on Twitter saw that comment as “shade.” One defended the hopeful and said it wasn’t the kind of critic he was looking for. Another fan claimed that Katy loved his performance.
