The pop icon is gearing up to release her new single, ‘Woman’s World.’
Katy Perry’s celebrated 2010 album Teenage Dream has officially been certified Diamond by the RIAA. The release has now officially accrued 10 million equivalent units in the U.S.
To help bolster Teenage Dream’s success, two of Perry’s singles also earned the same honor. “Teenage Dream” and “E.T.” have now racked up the equivalent of 10 million units.
Before this week, Perry already owned four Diamond singles: “Firework,” “Dark Horse,” “California Gurls” with Snoop Dogg, and “Roar.”

The accolades come at a very exciting time for Perry. Katy is kicking off a new pop era this summer, beginning with the release of her new single, “Woman’s World,” on Thursday, July 11, at 7:00 PM ET/ 4:00 PM PT.
The official video will premiere the morning of July 12. The global pop superstar recently unveiled the single’s bold cover art, which was shot by acclaimed British photographer Jack Bridgland, and a snippet of the song on her social media. “Woman’s World” is the first single from Katy’s forthcoming album. Fans can pre-save the single and pre-order the CD single or 7-inch vinyl editions now.
Last we heard from Katy was in May when her hit single “Roar” hit four billion YouTube views. Reaching that impressive number made “Roar” the most-viewed video of any female artist on the platform.
For those who haven’t seen it, the video shows Perry stranded on a jungle island after a plane crash, learning to fend for herself after her egotistical male companion is almost immediately mauled by a tiger. Her position as queen of the jungle is won after she lures the tiger with a cat toy made out of feathers and challenges it to a roaring contest. Having won, she deems the tiger Kitty Purry, which was the name of Perry’s real cat at the time.
