Tickets to Katy Perry's upcoming New Zealand show sold out in just 30 minutes this morning, forcing the chart-topping hitmaker to announce a second show.

Perry, who recently wed British comedian Russell Brand in India, will now perform two dates at Auckland's Vector Arena, on May 7 and May 8.
The pop star is known for her tight-fitting outfits and controversial hits like I Kissed A Girl. She is touring on the back of her recently-released album Teenage Dream.

"I am ecstatic to be able to see the glittering faces and also to go to New Zealand for the first time," Perry said. 

"I love going somewhere new because there's a special feeling in the air. It's like when you meet someone you love for the first time."

Perry promised Kiwi fans that her performance will be an extravaganza.

"I want it to be sensory overload. I'm figuring out the nuances, because I have these wild ideas, but they're not really traditional concert things," she told the Sunday Star-Times.

Tickets for the second show are on sale now.
