Laine Hardy’s Performance That Got Katy Perry Rushing On Stage
Laine Hardy made an extremely impressive journey on American Idol as he became more confident and comfortable on stage with each week passing by – and Katy Perry can’t help but fall in love with him even more.
So, when Hardy took to the stage and set himself free for an exciting revival of Chuck Berry’s “Johnny B. Goode,” the “I Kissed a Girl” singer made it even more evident that she’s one of Hardy’s biggest fans.

Hardy took center stage with huge letters that spelled out his name beaming brightly at his back. All three judges – Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie – were on their feet and began jamming as soon as Hardy started strumming his guitar.
They remained on their feet throughout Hardy’s mesmerizing performance, even dancing along to some parts – but Perry did more than just that in showing her extreme love for Hardy. Just like a starstruck fangirl, Perry tried making her way on the stage. Luckily, her fellow judges managed to hold her back.
She’s even having a hard time calming herself when Hardy’s finished singing. Bryan had to fan her with one of their cue cards. “I’m scared,” Perry exclaimed. “It was so good!” Of course, Bryan and Richie agreed with that sentiment.
