In addition to announcing her pregnancy, Katy Perry uses “Never Worn White” to express her love for Orlando Bloom. She also shares her fear surrounding their upcoming big day. According to Page Six, the couple is set to tie the knot this June, ideally in Japan. (However, the publication reports that increasing concern over coronavirus may result in a change of plans.)
Perry’s new lyrics acknowledge she’s never had a love quite like this: “I’ve stood on the edge of love / But never took the leap / And you took my armor off / Did it delicately / And I let my guard down / To show you what’s underneath.” She also references Bloom’s proposal, singing, “You asked the question / I said yes, but I’m scared / ‘Cause I’ve never worn white / But I wanna get it right.”

Despite any nerves, the song makes clear she’s ready to say “I do.” Perry knows their relationship will last as she sings, “Now let’s dance with each other / Mixing all of our colors / It’s so easy to surrender / When you finally find forever.”
But while the song title strongly implies she’s never worn a wedding dress before, fans know that’s not true. There’s another marriage being left out of the conversation, partly on a technicality.
