Katy Perry has announced the name of her next album in a big way. She revealed the name, Prism, on the side of a gold semi-truck that reads "Katy Perry – Prism – 10.22.2013.”
On Monday, Perry had some fun with it when she tweeted:
Find the #PRISM semi, take a picture and I'll RT you. Don't worry, Los Angeles is just the first stop on the map.

Prism is a follow-up to 28-year-old Perry’s 2010 album Teenage Dream, which produced five No. 1 singles. Like her last album, Perry worked with Max Martin, Dr. Luke, Bonnie McKee and Greg Wells on the new one.
Perry told Billboard back in April that Wells “allows me to vomit words. Not that I can’t find that with other but he just lets me [makes retching sound].” She added, “Max and Luke push me the most. As a team we have certain strengths. With Max, it’s melody choices, Luke is production and I’m topline and melody.”
She also said she was halfway done then, but the “race starts” when she sets a date. “When I put myself on a timeline, when I tell the record company when I want to release the album, that’s when the race starts,” she said. “That’s when I put pressure on myself.”
