Katy Perry's Lifetimes Tour has been branded "low budget" by some critics who tore the show apart on social media. The pop star , 40, kicked her tour off in Mexico City on Wednesday, where she will be performing once again tonight and tomorrow before heading to Monterrey next week. During her first concert, she seemed to hit back at people who criticized her Blue Origin flight by recreating some space moves at CDMX Arena and asking the audience, "Has anyone ever called your dreams crazy?"

Earlier this week, Katy announced that two of her upcoming concerts will no longer go ahead as the venue in Guadalajara, Mexico , where she was due to perform on May 1 and May 2 is incomplete and won't be ready on time. The singer made the announcement on Instagram, saying, "Sadly, I learned that the construction of Arena Guadalajara will not be complete for their scheduled shows next week, which includes mine on May 1 and 2." She continued, "Last week I sent my team to the Arena to make sure there wasn't anything we could do to make this happen but it was evident when they arrived that the venue was not ready or safe to receive my show or an audience.
I wish I could fix this but it is beyond my control." She also said she is "thinking about how I can create something special for the fans in Guadalajara in the future" although no plans have been disclosed as yet. Ticket holders for the Guadalajara concerts will be refunded.
Arena Guadalajara has also announced other cancellations due to construction setbacks, including Carlos Rivera's concert on April 25 and Intocable's gig on April 26..
