Katy Perry says Motherhood is a full-time job

Katy Perry has a newfound appreciation for the hard work mothers do.

The hitmaker and her fiance Orlando Bloom welcomed their daughter Daisy into the world last month, and the 35-year-old star has soon discovered the realities of a particular "popular misconception" about being a mom.

And Katy urged her followers to get in touch with their own mothers to share their appreciation, and called for them to campaign for longer paid parental leave.
