Katy Perry Gets 17 Stitches After Dance Accident

Daisy dukes, bikini on top – and 17 stitches on her leg.

“17 stitches later… Don’t make fun of my dance moves tomorrow,” Katy Perry Tweeted on Tuesday. “That’s what got me here in the 1st place! Thanks for the souvenir Canada :)!”

According to the UK’s Daily Mail, the “California Gurls” singer sliced her right leg open following her performance at the MuchMusic Video Awards on Sunday night during an “energetic dance session at a Toronto nightclub,” requiring the numerous stitches.

The star sported a calf-length bandage on Tuesday night during a performance on Canadian show “Live @ Much” and kept the dancing to a minimum.

“Thinking about getting a candy cane walker made for this performance coming up… I will be expecting YOU to dance for me, okay?! Oy vey,” she Tweeted before the show.

Her new album, “Teenage Dream,” is due on August 24 – enough time for a full recovery.
