Sunday’s Super Bowl had people online talking about halftime shows of years past, including the one performed by American Idol judge Katy Perry in 2015. In particular, people are amazed by her quick costume change during the performance.

Katy Perry’s Super Bowl Costume Change Goes Viral

As Cosmopolitan points out, this year’s halftime performer Rihanna didn’t change outfits during her appearance at the big game on Sunday, opting to wear the same red number for the entire performance.

This was not the case for Perry, who had 10 seconds to change outfits during her halftime performance in 2015. A TikTok video from @girlbossvideos shows the quick costume change as it happened. It resurfaced on Twitter Sunday as people got ready for this year’s game.

In the clip, Perry finishes a performance with Lenny Kravitz before hurrying to prepare for the next song. With the help of a couple of crew members, Perry removes her flame-accented outfit to reveal a bra designed to look like beach balls. She steps into a matching skirt and walks back on stage in time to start the next song.
