Katy Perry Goes Under the Sea in New Beauty Campaign

Katy Perry GHDDavid LaChapelle for GHD

It wasnt just about planking; Katy Perrys recent stint as a mermaid had to do with her latest series of ads for haircare line ghd. The singer channels Little Mermaid Ariel in her new U.K.-only campaign, (ironically) advertising a hair dryer from below sea level.

I love it because Im such a fan of the Disney movies, the newly single star says of her campaign, shot by David LaChapelle. Ariel is such a big influence. Its always fun to dress up once in your lifetime as a mermaid and have that fish fin tail.

The glimmering tail Perry wears in the photos was custom-made by a Dubai-based designer, but the singers favorite part of the look seemed to be wearing the lavender week. It was fun, the blue-haired star shares. Its as if Lisa Frank had done The Little Mermaid.

So should we expect to see Perry who explored past decades in her last round of ads donning a mermaid costume on her next tour? I would wear it again, she says. I actually thought about wearing it for Halloween. Tell us: What do you think of Perrys aquatic ad?
