Katy Perry to feature in The Sims
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 19 January 2012
Katy Perry has partnered with EA, creators of the popular gaming franchise ‘The Sims’, to feature in what the organisation describes as “themed in-game content and virtual goods”.
The alliance will begin with Perry appearing as an avatar in forthcoming edition ‘The Sims 3 Showtime’, which launches in March. She’ll also collaborate with EA’s Sims Studio to co-create a range of accessories, furniture, and props “inspired by the imagination that she brings to her performances, music videos and life”.
Says Perry: “I always like to think of myself as a cartoon, and now I’m a Sim”.
This isn’t the pop singer’s first Sims-related venture, mind. She recorded a version of her track ‘Hot N Cold’ back in 2008 for the soundtrack of ‘The Sims 2 Apartment Life’, even singing it in the game’s nonsense language ‘Simlish’.
