In the Rolling Stone August 2014 issue, Katy Perry appears on the cover, and in an exclusive interview with the magazine, the singer addressed concerns about her on-stage antics, particularly the "racist" and "cultural offensiveness" of the costumes she and her dancers wear.

Katy Perry's on-stage performances have always been a different mix of many spectacles, but some of her recent props raised eyebrows, especially when dancing mummies with large behinds appeared each night during her "Prismatic" tour.

The costumes attracted mixed reactions from her fans and critics, some calling it racist, while some weren't offended at all.

In her Rolling Stone interview, the singer defended her choice of costumes, saying that the mummies represent a plastic surgery era, even calling out popular figures such as Kim Kardashian and Ice T's wife, Coco.

"As far as the mummy thing, I based it on plastic surgery," said the singer during the Rolling Stone interview.

"Look at someone like Kim Kardashian or Ice-T's wife, Coco. Those girls aren't African-American. But it's actually a representation of our culture wanting to be plastic, and that's why there's bandages and it's mummies. I thought that would really correlate well together ... It came from an honest place. If there was any inkling of anything bad, then it wouldn't be there, because I'm very sensitive to people," continued Perry.

When asked about the geisha costume that Perry wore for her American Music Awards performance of her song, "Unconditionally," and how it sparked racism concerns, Perry became sarcastic.

"I guess I'll just stick to baseball and hot dogs, and that's it," replied the singer, who admitted that the quote could backfire on her.
