Katy Perry responds to investigation into “unauthorised” ‘Lifetimes’ video
Katy Perry’s label has responded to reports that the pop star is under investigation over potential environmental damage caused during the “unauthorised” ‘Lifetimes’ video shoot.The sun-kissed visuals for Perry’s latest single were released last week, and find her at the beach before heading to an Ibiza club. Elsewhere in the clip, the singer revealed the tracklist for her upcoming new album ’143’ on a billboard.It was subsequently alleged that the video – directed by frequent Bad Bunny collaborator Stillz – contained unauthorised filming on Spain’s Balearic Islands, and an investigation was launched.In a statement, the Balearic Islands’s Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and the Natural Environment said that the production company behind the ‘Lifetimes’ visuals had failed to seek “authorisation from the Regional Ministry to carry out the filming”.“That is why preliminary investigation actions have been initiated,” it continued.Despite this, the statement went on to say that Perry’s actions were not a “crime against the environment” and instead an infringement – stating that general photography and filming “can be authorised” in the location.A spokesperson from Perry’s label, Capitol Records, has now responded in a statement obtained by The Independent.
