Katy Perry shows off figure in stunning black ensemble backstage at 'SNL'

Katy Perry is letting loose — and we’re here for it!

The singer is gearing up for what’s expected to be an epic performance on Saturday Night Live this weekend, so naturally she felt inspired to do a last minute photoshoot on the set of the iconic NBC sketch show.

“Hold onto ur W.I.G.,” Perry captioned a series of photos in a black cut-out jumpsuit designed by Casey Cadwallader of Mugler while donning a long black wavy wig.

Of course, her fans were gagged by the look.

“Wig soaring like a bird,” one admirer wrote while another added, “Slay!”

“WE CANNOT WAIT QUEEN LETS GOOOO,” added a fan. “You are beautiful ?? I love you,” another chimed in.

This year is sure to be one of epic proportions for Perry, who recently announced that she’s adding 16 summer dates to her successful Las Vegas residency due to high demand.

"Ummm we heard y'all! thx to popular demand we've just added 16 more shows of #PLAY?? at @resortsworldlv!” she captioned a post on Instagram announcing the news.

Earlier this month, she spoke candidly about life on tour and how she finds her zen before performing for thousands of screaming fans.

"Well, people think backstage is pretty scandalous, but for me, for a decade, it's pretty much been the same," she told People magazine. "We're just getting ready, we're eating well, we're doing a pre-show workout. We're doing lots of different business things and really sticking to the meditation."

The artist added, "So the [things] that I do, and have done for over a decade, has given me a lot of help with fatigue and exhaustion. Especially getting through these shows, because I think this is probably the most physically grueling show I've done."
