Katy Perry has announced Icona Pop as her support act.

The singer is currently promoting her latest album Prism and will be embarking on a tour next year.

So far she's only revealed the UK leg of her tour, and she's also given British fans a taste of what they can expect when the shows start in May.

"#THEPRISMATICWORLDTOUR is coming May 2014! First stop: UK! Tix on sale FRIDAY, 11/22," she wrote on Twitter.

"I'm bringing my friends @iconapop to Belfast, Newcastle, Nottingham, Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Liverpool, Sheffield and LONDON! (sic)"

The 29-year-old star will perform her first show on May 7 in Belfast and then move onto venues in cities such as Liverpool and Sheffield, before finishing up at The O2 Arena in London.

Careful not to alienate her fans around the world, the star revealed further concerts would be announced in the near future.

"DON'T WORRY - more GLOBAL tour dates coming soon! I can't wait to get closer to ALL of you than ever before! #THEPRISMATICWORLDTOUR (sic)," she promised.

As well as being busy with her music, Katy is happily dating singer John Mayer.

She recently received attention when she was spotted with a sparkler on her left ring finger.

However it's been denied that John has proposed to her.

"She's not engaged. It was just a ring that went with the outfit,” a close source told Us Magazine.
