As Katy Perry sings, “they know what is what.”
We knew it was a major moment when the Grammy nominee took the stage Monday night for a Witness fan concert presented exclusively by YouTube in downtown Los Angeles—the finale to a four-day “Witness World Wide” livestream.

We all either got one or we don’t or we got both. I won’t let it take my power, how about that? Let’s do that. Just don’t look over here…”
