Katy Perry flaunts figure ahead of 'American Idol' exit

MANILA, Philippines — Pop singer and "American Idol" judge Katy Perry was among the headturners during the red carpet of the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards.

The artist wore a sheer mesh dress over her black bra, underwear, and knee-high boots, kept together by red ribbons running down her sides.

She completed the look with black sunglasses, wavy hairstyling, and natural makeup with smokey eyes.

Katy — who announced last February she would be leaving "American Idol" after seven seasons — was not a nominee or award recipient at this year's iHeartRadio Music Awards dominated by Taylor Swift and SZA.

Taylor won six of her nominations including Artist of the Year, Pop Artist of the Year, and Tour of the Year for her sprawling "Eras" tour.

One of the categories Taylor missed out on was Song of the Year, which went to SZA's "Kill Bill."

SZA also won R&B Artist of the Year, R&B Song of the Year for "Snooze," and R&B Album of the Year for "SOS."

Other key winners were OneRepublic for Best Duo/Group of the Year; BTS member Jungkook for K-Pop Artist of the Year; and Miley Cyrus beating both Taylor and SZA for Pop Song of the Year with "Flowers."

Beyonce, fresh off the release of her latest album "Cowboy Carter," was the recipient of the iHeartRadio Innovator Award, while Cher received the iHeartRadio Icon Award.
