Katy Perry named godmother of Norwegian Prima
Pop diva and ‘American Idol’ judge Katy Perry will be godmother to Norwegian Cruise Line’s newest ship, Norwegian Prima, debuting August 2022.
As godmother, Perry will also perform during the christening ceremony before Norwegian Prima sets sail on its inaugural voyages from Reykjavík, Iceland.
It becomes the first major cruise ship christened in the Icelandic capital.
“We are so excited to welcome Katy Perry, a one-of-a-kind artist and worldwide sensation, as godmother of Norwegian Prima,” said Harry Sommer, President and CEO of NCL. “We are so incredibly proud that she will be part of the Norwegian Cruise Line family and look forward to launching our beautiful, innovative ship with her in August.”
The singer said: “I love that I get to christen her with my good vibrations, and I’m so excited.”
Launching August 2022, Norwegian Prima will offer inaugural voyages to Northern Europe from Southampton, England; Amsterdam; and Reykjavík, Iceland beginning 12 August.
It will offer Bermuda sailings from New York City beginning 6 October; and Caribbean itineraries from Galveston, Texas and Miami beginning 27 October.
