Katy Perry Brings The Heat In Soaking Wet VMAs Look

Katy Perry had people sweating with her red carpet look at Wednesday night’s MTV Video Music Awards in New York.

The “Woman’s World” singer managed to look like a sexy island castaway as she flashed her oil-slicked abs in a tattered gauze top and matching maxi skirt by the designer Who Decides War.

Keeping everything dripping, the singer wore her hair in wet waves and went with dewy makeup.

Beside Perry was longtime partner Orlando Bloom, who donned a dapper black suit.

Perry was at the event to receive the evening’s Video Vanguard Award, MTV’s equivalent of a lifetime achievement honor.
