Katy Perry dropped some hints about what fans can expect from her upcoming album, Smile, in a game of “Finish the Sentence” with The Sunday Times Style.

As the name of the game implies, the singer answered a variety of questions from home by finishing sentences given to her.

“I would describe my new album as hopeful, resilient, joyful and my own journey of coming through hell,” Perry said in the video, which was uploaded to YouTube on Friday (July 31).

“The song of mine that best sums up my life right now would be probably either ‘Smile’ or the last track on my album, which is called ‘What Makes a Woman,’ because I am going through very, very feminine things right now,” the pregnant pop star added.

A couple sentence prompts led the glowing Perry to talk further about her pregnancy.

“Being pregnant is amazing because my level of appreciation for women has grown exponentially and given me this powerful feeling, like I can do it all while still creating another life,” she explained. “I feel really powerful.”

“2020: challenging, but the best year ’cause I got the best gift,” she said, holding her belly.

Watch the full interview below to find out what song she’ll never tire of performing, which red carpet outfit she’ll remember forever, the advice she’d give her 18-year-old self and more.

Bruno Mars might be in some hot water with MGM.

The “24K Magic” singer announced a multi-year residency with MGM Resorts International in 2016, performing at the hospitality giant’s Park MGM resort in Las Vegas.

However, the relationship between the 38-year-old and the hospitality giant may have gone sour as the singer’s gambling has allegedly racked up large debts at the poker tables in Las Vegas, according to NewsNation.

“He owed millions to the MGM,” a Vegas insider told the outlet.

Another source added that the debt is as high as $50 million.

“[MGM] basically own him. He makes $90 million a year off of the deal he did with the casino, but then he has to pay back his debt,” added the insider, claiming that the singer only makes $1.5 million per night after taxes.

Part of Mars’ MGM contract reportedly included the creation of The Pinky Ring, a cocktail lounge inside the Bellagio Resort. NewsNation reports that another project is in the works as well.

Method Man is one of Wu-Tang Clan‘s most recognizable MCs, yet he’s revealed he’s not watched a single episode of Hulu’s Wu-Tang: An American Saga series.

The New York rapper joined Kevin Hart for a recent episode of his Golden Minds Podcast where Meth explained he’s never watched an episode because he wanted to allow the show to take creative liberties with its story and not feel a way about it.

“So to see this come to fruition on screen, it was a no-brainer for me knowing how RZA works,” he said. “In the beginning, it was like, ‘Wow, they’re taking a lot of liberties here with the story.’ In hindsight, knowing how some of these things work, and embellishments and sometimes dudes still be having open cases and shit so I could understand.

“I haven’t watched an episode, personally, but I get the scripts ahead of time. Everything ain’t for everybody, that’s all I could say.”
