Katy Perry is known for her intense love of pizza, as she enjoys sharing it unlike most of us! In an Instagram video posted on her account, the 39-year-old singer was seen distributing pizza slices to her fans outside her hotel in Brazil. The caption read ‘They Feed Me And I Feed Them.’

During her trip to Brazil, she took the stage at Rock in Rio 2024, one of the nation's largest music festivals. Moments before she started distributing pizza slices, the singer said:

“We are about to deliver pizza to the fans because we love them.”

In a video shared by Pop Crave on X, a young boy appeared to grab Katy Perry while she was handing out the pizza slices. She responded graciously by sharing a slice with him. The singer’s gesture led fans to laud her. One X user wrote:

“I worked for her non profit- she was bombarded with hundreds of kids every time she came out. Her patience and kindness is unmatched. She truly is a gracious person.”

Others reacted positively to how she hugged the young boy at the end. Some users on X admired the way she handled the situation.

“And she hugs him at the end but people will find a way to hate in her for this,” a fan reacted.
“Don’t care what people have to say, she’s a good woman,” a person commented.
“She handled it so well unlike many other celebrities. Very sweet of Katy,” an X user wrote.

Some X users called the situation a ‘startling experience’ while others remained fixated on her reaction.

“That's honestly so sweet. & bold. It'd be so difficult to see the humanity in it after what would be such a startling experience,” a fan commented.
“this was actually a homeless child that ran to her as he saw she was handing pizza, her reaction was so sweet,” another person reacted.
“queen of spreading love,” a netizen wrote.

Katy Perry tossed pizza slices to her fans at a club in Las Vegas back in 2022

The singer previously threw pizza slices into the audience during a club appearance in Las Vegas. In a video shared by a fan account on X, Katy Perry was seen tossing a slice of pizza in frisbee-style to her fans. The slice and the paper plate quickly detached mid-air, landing in the area between the crowd and the DJ booth.

The singer smiled before turning back to the box. While continuing to dance to the music, she grabbed another slice and tossed it into the crowd like a boss!

In May 2024, on her final night on the American Idol stage, Katy Perry reportedly recreated her viral 2022 moment by tossing a slice into the crowd while filming the season 22 finale of the ABC singing competition series. Sharing the video on Instagram, she captioned it as follows: "A pizza my heart will always be on the #Idol stage."

Some fans expressed disapproval of Katy Perry throwing food. Others humorously compared her actions to a mother feeding her children. One follower even praised her as a champion in the "pizza throw category."
