Norwegian Cruise Line has named international popstar and American Idol judge Katy Perry as godmother of new-ship Norwegian Prima.

Prima’s godmother, pop star Katy Perry, will perform at the vessel’s christening in Iceland

As godmother, Perry will not only fulfil the maritime tradition of blessing and officially naming the vessel, but she will perform during the christening ceremony in August before the vessel embarks on its inaugural voyage from Reykjavik.
 

Harry Sommer, president and chief executive of NCL, said the brand was "excited" to welcome the "one-of-a-kind artist" as godmother of Prima.

"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," he added.
