SHE may have been following in the footsteps of Madonna and Beyonce, but last night Katy Perry proved she can wow the crowds at Super Bowl too.

The 30-year-old singer put on an increible performance during half time, and was even joined by a couple of other stars of the music industry.
To ensure her show really was an unforgettable one, Katy enlisted the help of rocker Lenny Kravitz and US rapper Missy Elliott.
Katy wore a sexy flame patterned mini skirt and matching top as she twerked up against 50-year-old Lenny, who was of course, playing his guitar.
The suave rocker sported a leather jacket, jeans and dark sunglasses as they switched from Katy's hit Roar to I Kissed A Girl.

Katy had begun her performance with Roar and rode into the Phoenix Stadium on a giant gold lion.
The US star wore her black hair up in a slicked back ponytail and included four outfit changes throughout her performance.
Her second outfot consisted of a multi-coloured striped crop top and matching skirt as she performed her hits Teenage Dream and California Gurls.
The dark-haired star was joined by an array of female backing dancers who were all dressed in polka dot Fifties-style bikinis.

In record time, Katy ditched her silver glittery boots and matching two-piece to slip into someting a bit more appropriate as she was joined on stage by Missy Elliott.
For this slot, Katy wore an oversized black tracksuit top which was emblazoned with the number 49 and a pair of black tights as she strutted her stuff with Missy and her backing dancers.
The US rapper performed two of her biggest hits, Get Ur Freak On and Work It, and looked as good as ever as she wowed the crowd.

However, Katy saved the best until last and slipped into a long floated through the air attached to a giant shooting star as she performed Firework.
Surrounded by constant fireworks on stage, she belted out the ballad whilst wearing a long silver dress which was adorned with stars.
The performance saw Katy entertain perhaps her largest audience to date as the game was expected to draw 115 million viewers - or about one in three Americans.
Katy was clearly on such a high following the show that she decided to get a tattoo to mark the occasion.

Taking to her Instagram page this morning, she posted two pictures which showed her getting inked just hours after her performance.
"I thought it would be appropriate to draw blood tonight... XLIX," she wrote alongside the snap which shows a male tattooist working his magic on her right hand.
She then uploaded a snap of the inking, which are the letters 'XLIX' on the insider of her finger in black ink.
