This weekend, the actor and pop star helped TV journalist (and son of Woody Allen and Mia Farrow) [Ronan Farrow](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/10/18/10-things-you-need-to-know-about-ronan-farrow-that-will-make-you-feel-horribly-unaccomplished/?iid=sr-link3) celebrate his birthday with a night out at a karaoke club. Helpfully, Farrow shared an Instagram video of the celebrity-stacked squad going all-in on some Alanis Morissette. They did not hold back. This isn’t the only musical whisper we’ve heard from Perry recently, either; she also took to Instagram Moments to tease some potential new music, which would be a welcome development for fans who’ve waited since 2013 for an album from the hitmaking singer. > [](https://twitter.com/FOTPKatyPerry/status/810038917927989248) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4606859/katy-perry-orlando-bloom-karaoke/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4606859/katy-perry-orlando-bloom-karaoke/"},"headline":"Watch Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom Go All-In on Karaoke Night","datePublished":"2016-12-19T20:16:10.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:39:38.335Z","description":"Is new music on the way?","url":"https://time.com/4606859/katy-perry-orlando-bloom-karaoke/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Entertainment","celebrities"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4606859/katy-perry-orlando-bloom-karaoke/","name":"Watch Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom Go All-In on Karaoke Night"}}]}] ```
