"It's not my third record. It's my second record, with a face-lift" the songstress is quoted as saying. In an interview with MTV, Perry discloses that the focus of this "Teenage Dream" re-release is not to gain more fans, but instead to give her preexisting fans a more unabridged album:
"I had the idea to do a reissue, like that one last 'wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am.' Like, 'Here's Teenage Dream, if you're on the edge of being a fan.' ... It's for that last push of, like, 'Jump in with me. Why not? You've already bought five songs, so you might as well complete your album!' ... But really, why I did it was because I know my fans always want more, so it's for the die-hard fan to have a nice, complete package."
Along with numerous number one singles, three new songs grace Katy Perry's latest release. Additionally, listeners will be to listen to acoustic versions and remixes/mashups of their favorite songs. In a previously unreleased song, titled "Wide Awake", which was recorded after the initial release of "Teenage Dream", Katy sings of her somber "fall from cloud nine" after "dreaming for so long", alluding to her not-so-fairytale ending with her ex. Perry hinted that she "needed to flush that out of (her) system" before she could move onto her next project.
Her next endeavor is the release of her 3D cinematic debut, an interactive concert film composed of footage from her California Dreams Tour in addition to never before seen, behind-the-scenes footage. From whipped cream guns and cupcake dresses, to elaborate peacock-esque ensembles, this 3D experience is sure to be quite a colorful spectacle.
