In 2017, however, she dyed her hair back to blonde, her natural hair colour, and has kept it that way since.

It's unknown if Katy's new dark locks are a wig or if she's dyed her hair, but fans loved the Amy Winehouse-style beehive and fringe.

"That hair is iconic," one fan Tweeted.

"Lady Gaga and Katy Perry having a moment together — these two will remain as POP LEGENDS, no matter how the media & critics will find a way to pit them against each other," another said.

While the pair became famous around the same time and were friends, they were pitted against each other and had a short feud in 2018.

Court documents in a legal battle between singer Kesha and producer Dr Luke revealed text messages between Lady Gaga and Kesha where she made some not so nice comments.

Lady Gaga then took to Twitter to set the record straight, writing, "[Katy Perry] & I have grown up in the industry together. We’ve gone through both celebrations & differences w/ each other. These are old texts. We’ve matured, gotten over the past, love each other & share deep respect. Katy is my friend and is truly a kind soul. End of story."

Katy replied, saying, "Love you too friend. Onward and upward."
