Katy Perry has been having a good year. The pop star is currently on some international dates for her Prismatic tour in support of her 2013 album Prism, and was recently confirmed as 2015′s Superbowl halftime performer, but all those late night performances haven’t stopped her from taking time out to sight see during her travels.
She traveled to Mexico City for two performances—tonight (October 17) and tomorrow (October 18)—but Perry got to the city early to hang out in the Colonia del Carmen neighborhood of Coyoacán and visit the house-turned-museum dedicated to the legendary Mexican painter Frida Kahlo. And apparently, she’s a huge fan! Katy hung out at the La Casa Azul and snapped several pics of the place.
Known as La Casa Azul (or literally the Blue House) due to its striking cobalt blue paint, the structure has become something of a monument to Frida’s legacy, and features both her artwork and items from her personal life.
“Hanging @ Frida & Diego’s,” Perry captioned this pic, referencing Frida’s husband Diego Rivera who lived in the house with the painter after they were married.
She was also stoked to see Frida’s headpiece…
And her paints!
Will we see some of Frida’s style slipping into the rest of the costumes for Katy’s tour? That headpiece does look like something the “This Is How We Do” singer would rock—plus we already know her affinity for incorporating art into her style:
So we’ll keep an eye out.
