In case you somehow missed it, Katy Perry is deep in ~album mode~. The pop diva has been teasing her new project 143 since all the way back in June and it seems like each new week brings another album Easter egg.

Don't believe us? Cast your minds back to the beginning of summer, when Katy turned up to Paris Haute Couture Week and rocked a tiny red dress with a huuuuuge train that was *wait for it* emblazoned with the lyrics for her (then forthcoming) single 'Woman's World'.

And, months later, she's still at it! As it turns out, the music icon slipped another reference into her star turn at the MTV Video Music Awards this week, where she graced the red carpet to accept the prestigious Video Vanguard Award and to perform a medley of her hits as well as her latest single 'I'm His, He's Mine' alongside Doechii.

Fashion-wise, she rocked a completely shredded, off-white bra top and coordinating maxi skirt by Who Decides War, as well as copious amounts of body oil and tousled, wet-look hair.

The look was giving all kinds of Survivor, castaway chic (obsessed) but there was one subtle af detail that really takes it to the next level.

On the small of her back, Katy is rocking a tiny QR code tattoo. Eagle-eyed fans who spotted the tramp stamp did some internet sleuthing, scanning the QR code to see where it led. And (no surprises here!) it directs to a link with options for 143 album pre-saves, vinyl and merch.

Yep, this girl commits to the bit.
