Katy Perry released her new single "Chained To The Rhythm" this past week via giant disco balls, and tonight she performed the track for the first time live at the Grammys. (Synergy!) She wore a Persist armband in true new #woke Katy fashion, and danced around a reflective white picket fences, which was teared down and gave way to a "We The People" background. Skip Marley was also there -- she's still sticking by that choice! Watch below.
