Katy Perry<\/strong>‘s about to embark on her Lifetimes tour, but while appearing on Jimmy Kimmel<\/strong> Live! <\/em>Wednesday night, she talked about the tours she attended as a kid \u2014 and shared a story about one of them.<\/p>\n

Katy revealed that her first concert was technically by swing revivalists\u00a0Big Bad Voodoo Daddy<\/strong><\/a>, but she considers her “real” first concert to be Radiohead<\/strong>. She told Kimmel<\/a>, “The one that made the most impression was going to see Radiohead with my best friend at the time. I was 13, I looked 18, and they invited me backstage and my dad was like, ‘Hell no.'”<\/p>\n

When a surprised Kimmel asked, “Who<\/em> invited you backstage?” Katy just tossed her hair and gave a coy look. “The rock! The rock ‘n’ roll invited me,” she laughed.<\/p>\n

“So your dad was at the concert?” Kimmel asked. “No, he was just giving us a ride,” Katy explained. “I called him after the show\u00a0and I said, ‘They want us to come backstage.’ He said, ‘I’ll be right there!’ No way, Jos\u00e9!”<\/p>\n

She laughed, “It was good, and then I went back to eighth grade or something after that.”<\/p>\n

Asked if she ever told Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke<\/strong> that story, she said, “No, I think when I’ve seen him, I’ve just frozen because he’s just incredible.”<\/p>\n

But as you may recall, Katy did reference Radiohead in the lyrics of her hit “The One That Got Away<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

There likely won’t be any backstage shenanigans on Katy’s tour, though. She’s bringing her 4-year-old daughter,\u00a0Daisy<\/strong>, with her, and\u00a0she told Jimmy<\/a>, “I’m gonna start these shows at 8:30, ’cause I now understand that bedtime takes over an hour and a half. I am gonna be considering all mothers around the world now!”<\/p>\n
