Perry told PEOPLE in January of being part of the project, “I love being a part of anything that is playful and is good storytelling and has really good messages to share with the world. Now having a child myself, Iunderstand that it’s so important to play. This is a continued extension of who I am.”
In 2019, Perry — whogave birth to daughter Daisyin late August — visited The Pokémon Café during a trip to Japan, and the experience was “amazing,” theAmerican Idoljudge recalled, adding that the visit “brought up all these wonderful childhood memories.”
Growing up, Perry told PEOPLE, she always related most to Pikachu: “I’m really attached to the hero. I know there are others in the game, but I just found Pikachu to be really cute.”
“I understand the story of Pikachu. On the surface, you might just think I’m just cute, have a couple of cute songs,” she added. “But if you dig deeper, you’ll realize’Chained to the Rhythm’is not just a fun little song!”
