TORONTO (ONTARIO) January 20, 2011

"Our love affair with Katy Perry started the day we first heard I Kissed a Girl and hasn't slowed down since. We can't wait to see her on stage here in Canada," said Nathan Rosenberg, Chief Marketing Officer, Virgin Mobile Canada. "Throughout her Canadian tour we'll be giving our Members access to giveaways and the extra bits of love that they've come to expect from us – starting with exclusive access to get their hands on tickets first!"

Katy Perry has cemented her status as a best-selling superstar with the global success of her second studio album, Teenage Dream, which debuted at #1 in 8 countries. With her third single, "Firework," in its fourth week at #1, she becomes the first female artist in 11 years to score three number one singles from the same album on Billboard's Hot 100 ("California Gurls" reigned for 6 weeks, while "Teenage Dream" topped the chart for 2 weeks). This follows on the heels of her multi-platinum debut album, One of the Boys, which had generated four hit singles: "I Kissed A Girl," "Hot N Cold," "Thinking of You" and "Waking Up In Vegas." She wrapped up 2010 in style with 4 Grammy nominations, including one for "Album of the Year." Katy kicks off her California Dreams Tour at the beginning of 2011, with stops in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, North America and beyond.
