Katy Perry unveils emoji lyric video for 'Roar'

Pop superstar Katy Perry has shared the lyric video for her brand new anthemic single, 'Roar'.

She unveiled the song officially earlier today (August 12) and took to her Twitter page earlier this afternoon to inform her 40.6 million followers that a lyric video is now available:

"Now YOU can #ROAR louder than a lion too! Lyric video starring Myself, Kitty Purry & some of my closest buds."

The clip sees the beauty wake up and text her friends the lyrics to the track using emojis to replace certain words through a smart phone messaging app. It also features an adorable cameo from Perry's very own cat, who is named Kitty Purry (pictured above left).

She has now told her fans that the song has been incredibly popular since its release, adding: "HEY! THANKS WE'RE #1 IN ABOUT 20 COUNTRIES ALREADY. (How many countries are there actually?)"
