== Background and development ==
Perry first teased the tour during her "We Can Survive" event at the [[Hollywood Bowl]] on October 23, 2013. At the event, she encouraged fans to see her on her 2014 tour, stating that the tour would be "magical."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop-shop/5770379/katy-perry-hosts-famous-friends-previews-next-tour-at-hollywood|title=Katy Perry Hosts Famous Friends, Previews Next Tour at Hollywood Bowl: Live Review|work=Billboard|date=October 24, 2013|first=Justino|last=Aguila|publisher=Prometheus Global Media}}</ref> In late October 2013, she told ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'', Perry discussed the tour, saying, "The tour is going to be fantastic. I always try to take it to the next level. I think people will realize what the tour is going to be like when they listen to the music." She also emphasized that she would be "very close" to the audience during the tour.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://music-mix.ew.com/2013/11/05/katy-perry-2014-roar-tour-video-exclusive/|title=Katy Perry says her 2014 tour for 'Roar' will be 'less cartoony' — EXCLUSIVE VIDEO|work=[[Entertainment Weekly]]|date=November 5, 2013|first=Kyle|last=Anderson}}</ref> At the [[2013 MTV Europe Music Awards]], Perry said the tour would be "less cartoony" than the [[California Dreams Tour]] and would be a "feast for your eyes."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1717195/katy-perry-tour-ema.jhtml|title=Katy Perry's Tour Will Be A 'Feast For Your Eyes'..... And Your Instagram|work=MTV.com|date=November 11, 2013|first=Christina|last=Garibaldi}}</ref> In a December 2013 interview with [[Capital (radio network)|Capital FM]], Perry stated that the tour would have less of a storyline than her previous tours, saying, "I'm going to bring all the bells and whistles like it was last time but it won't be so highly narrated. I just want a little bit more room to express myself." She also said "I'm just really excited. I just did a big tour meeting yesterday and saw the graphic drawing of the stage and it's unlike anything I've seen for any other artist and it's unlike anything I've ever done. It's different, it's fresh, it's clean and it's actually in the middle of the audience it feels like", Katy explained.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.capitalfm.com/artists/katy-perry/news/prismatic-tour-expectations-teaser/|title=Katy Perry Promises 'Prismatic' Tour Will Be 'Unlike Anything" She's Ever Done - Audio|work=Capital FM|date=December 19, 2013}}</ref>

Running for nearly twelve minutes, the video features four songs from [[ARTPOP]] and features the central video for "G.U.Y."

An instrumental of her song, "[[Artpop (song)|Artpop]]", plays in the background. The men run off and Gaga crawls to safety, removing the arrow from her chest. Gaga makes it to her feet and travels to a palace, where she collapses at the front door and is scraped up by the guards. The song "[[Venus (song)|Venus]]" begins. She is carried down to the pool, where people cover her in flowers and descend her into the water as a healing process.

Gaga, [[Lisa Vanderpump]], and [[Kyle Richards]] are seen coming out of a car in black outfits, shooting money cannons, and walking down the hallway to kill corporate executives to replace with G.U.Y. clones.

"'''Princess of China'''" is a song by British [[alternative rock]] band [[Coldplay]] with guest vocals by [[Barbadian people|Barbadian]] recording artist [[Rihanna]]. It is the tenth track from Coldplay's fifth studio album ''[[Mylo Xyloto]]'' (2011), and it was released as the album's third single on 25 October 2011 through [[Parlophone]]. "Princess of China" was written by band members [[Guy Berryman]], [[Jonny Buckland]], [[Will Champion]], and [[Chris Martin]], along with [[Brian Eno]], and draws influences from the music genres of [[electropop]] and [[Contemporary R&B|R&B]]. The song was met with a mixed response from [[Music journalism|music critics]], with some praising the collaboration between Martin and Rihanna, whilst others criticized Rihanna's vocal performance.

==Background and release==
[[File:Rihanna, LOUD Tour, Florida 7.jpg|thumb|upright|left|Chris Martin initially wrote "Princess of China" secretly hoping that Rihanna ''(pictured)'' would appear as a guest vocalist on the song, and was surprised when she agreed to lend her vocals to the track.<ref name="MTVTease"/>]]
In an interview with [[MTV News]] on 20 September 2011, frontman [[Chris Martin]] confirmed the band had recorded a song with [[Rihanna]], and that it would be featured on Coldplay's fifth studio album, ''Mylo Xyloto''.<ref name="MTVTease">{{cite news|url=http://www.mtv.co.uk/news/rihanna/332836-rihanna-new-single-calvin-harris-we-found-love-coldplay|title=Rihanna Teases New Single 'We Found Love' On Twitter?|work=[[MTV News]]|publisher=[[Viacom]]|date=2011-09-20|accessdate=2011-09-20}}</ref> Martin continued to say that he had written a song specifically for Rihanna to be featured on, and hoped that she would like it enough to want to lend her vocals to the track, saying, "In like a dream scenario, we had a song that I'd secretly kind of written to see if Rihanna would want to sing it ... and then the rest of the band wanted to keep it, so we came up with the idea of asking her to sing it with us, and, to our great surprise, she said okay".<ref name="MTVTease"/> Martin also confirmed that "Princess of China" is the band's favourite song on the album because of how it differs from their previous efforts in terms of genre and musical direction.<ref name="MTVTease"/> When asked if fans would unite and react favourably to the song, Martin expressed that he was not concerned with how it would be received, and noted that Rihanna is always pushing the boundaries of the music industry.<ref name="Metro1">{{cite news|last=Lee|first=Ann|url=http://www.metro.co.uk/music/876022-chris-martin-rihanna-duet-princess-of-china-is-best-bit-of-mylo-xyloto|title=Chris Martin: Rihanna duet Princess Of China is best bit of Mylo Xyloto|work=[[Metro (British newspaper)|Metro]]|publisher=[[Associated Newspapers Ltd]]|date=2011-09-20|accessdate=2011-09-21}}</ref> Martin also explained how he approached the singer about collaborating on the song, saying, "The album is designed as a whole piece. It has boy and girl lead characters and top of our list for the girl part was Rihanna, but it took a while to pluck up the courage to ask her. We did a show in Las Vegas and I met her and said, 'Do you think there's any chance?'
