Katy Perry has flown to Morocco to celebrate her 30th birthday.
The ‘This Is How We Do’ hit maker, who will celebrate the milestone on Friday, October 25, 2014, landed in Marrakech earlier this week with a small entourage after she was forced to cancel her extravagant party.
The star – who is currently enjoying a three-week break from her ‘Prismatic World Tour’ – had originally planned to fly a large group of her family and friends to Egypt to mark her special occasion but reportedly cancelled the trip due to ‘safety reasons.’
A source told The Hollywood Reporter that the singer scrapped her dream of taking a cruise down the Nile and partying near the Pyramids after her itinerary was leaked online.
Another source told UsMagazine.com that Katy quickly decided to fly to Morocco instead for a low-key party.
The ‘Roar‘ star recently admitted she has less time for bulls**t’ as she gets older.
She said: ‘A lot of times I’ve ended up with people who have been intimidated by me, unfortunately. They say they’re not, but it comes out in the long run. They’re threatened, or there’s resentment because they don’t know how to handle it.’
She added: ‘As I’m heading into my 30s I have less time for bulls**t. I look for the same characteristics: a sense of humour, someone who makes me laugh off the charts, someone who is sensitive, someone who loves and understands music, and who is really smart.’
