"Gracias, Barcelona," she captioned the video of herself, soundtracked by the new track she's teasing, "Lifetimes," and the fan she kissed through the glass commented as well: "I'm the boy you kissed, I LOVE YOU."
She shared another set of photos on Instagram soon after, including some of her navigating her revealing outfit and serving more shots to clubgoers, and captioned it: "Last day of Pride in Barcelona, first day of the rest of our Lifetimes."

While "Woman's World" quickly became a top trend on social media and started off with strong streaming and sales numbers, it received mixed reception from fans and critics alike, some of whom also pointed out the irony of writing a feminist anthem with a host of male writers, include the infamous Dr. Luke.

The album is titled after old school pager and text lingo, which translates to "I Love You" and is a phrase Katy has often used on social media. The "Dark Horse" singer has promised that the new album will be a predominantly dance-pop record.
