Has it really been a year since Katy Perry came into our lives?

A little over a year ago, Katy Perry released One of the Boys, and since then she has propelled into superstardom. She's got a new video, a string of tour dates across the US, and an appearance on Today on July 24. Now, despite heavy promotion, Youtube simply doesn't allow Katy Perry's new video to be embedded. However, you can view "Waking Up in Vegas" over at YouTube. The tour dates are all posted after the jump. As far as the Today performance, you're just going to have to wait.
