An early morning performance by Katy Perry on Channel Seven’s Sunrise helped the show to its highest ratings for the year with an average 484,000 metro viewers according to OzTAM.

The show broadcast live from an outdoor stage at the Sydney Opera House took Sunrise into the top 20 programs of the day and put the show ahead of rival Nine’s Today, which averaged 315,000, in all five cities.

It was Perry’s second performance for Seven following her appearance on The X Factor which averaged over 2.2m on Monday. And it boosted the breakfast’s show’s ratings less than a week before Ten launches its new morning lineup Wake Up and Studio Ten on Monday.

Sunrise is such a classy show and looks like everyone is having fun. Katy perry was incredible even though she had no sleep and was jetlagged. Great work by all
