KATY PERRY'S £24,000 HERMES KELLY: A SMALL BAG WITH A BIG PRICE TAG AND EVEN BIGGER ATTENTION

The ultimate status symbol has been spotted on none other than global superstar Katy Perry! The Firework singer was seen posing with her brand new, eye-watering £24,000 Hermes Kelly handbag in New York City after a concert at Madison Square Garden on Monday.

But what's even more astonishing is that the teeny-tiny bag, measuring just 7.8in by 5.5in, barely has enough room to fit her iPhone, let alone any other essentials! Yet, experts claim that with a little bit of juggling, it could also accommodate a cardholder, keys, AirPods, lipstick, and even her phone – without its case!

The 40-year-old singer, who recently broke up with actor Orlando Bloom after nine years together, looked absolutely stunning in a figure-hugging black and white Yael bustier maxi dress. She paired it with sleek small heels and sparkling jewellery that added to her already dazzling aura.

But what's really got everyone talking is not just the price tag of this exquisite handbag, but also Katy's recent stint in space! The pop sensation was one of the celebrities who took part in an 11-minute space mission on Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin rocket back in April. And, boy, did she get roasted for it!

Katy faced a barrage of mockery from the media and online trolls after promoting her tour dates while floating above the Earth's atmosphere and then planting a kiss on the ground as soon as she landed safely back on our beloved planet. It seems that even the stars need to watch what they say and do in space – or else they'll be under scrutiny like never before!

When asked about her new handbag, Katy simply smiled and said, "I just love collecting beautiful things!" But we can't help but wonder: with a price tag of £24,000, does this tiny bag really justify the hefty cost? Or is it just another status symbol to show off on social media?

Whatever the reason may be, one thing's for sure – Katy Perry's got style and she knows how to make headlines! And if you're wondering what's inside that teensy-weensy purse, well... let's just say we won't be finding out anytime soon!
