Katy Perry has teamed up with the Kim Kardashian game creators

It’s funny how in one moment technology can fill me with immense pride in the human race and its accomplishments and, in another moment, it can completely destroy any faith I had in humanity. An example of the latter moment would be the fact that the makers behind the stupidly successful Kim Kardashian: Hollywood have teamed up with Katy Perry for another game. 

Mobile game developer Glu Mobile Inc said it would partner with top-selling singer Katy Perry to develop a new mobile game, which will include the “Firework” singer’s voice and likeness. The company, known for its popular “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” game, said it expects to release the game in the fourth quarter. Shares of Glu, which also reported a 78 percent jump in fourth-quarter adjusted revenue, rose 14 percent to $4.39 in extended trading. Katy Perry, who hosted the Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show on Sunday, is known for hit singles such as “Teenage Dream,” “E.T.” and “Roar.” “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” is a free-to-download mobile game where the user can create a celebrity avatar and interact with celebrities in a virtual world filled with parties, paparazzi and luxury homes.
