On Thursday, the 39-year-old singer finally released the highly-anticipated music video for the first single off her upcoming album, 143.

The high-energy video opens with a feminine twist on the classic "Lunch Atop a Skyscraper" photo, featuring a group of women construction workers posed on a beam.

Katy takes center stage, channeling Rosie the Riveter with a denim romper and red bandana.

She then takes a swig of some "Whiskey for Women" and moves with her crew to a urinal with new outfits.

The Dark Horse artist changes again, this time from an eye-catching sparkly American flag bikini with denim shorts and knee-high boots to a white bikini with robotic "superhuman" legs.

Also, the clip features internet personality Trish Paytas laughing while chilling with KP behind the wheel of a monster truck.

However, the internet is divided, and while some fans are celebrating the return of Katy Perry, others are left with questions.

"So...the video is making a joke about selling products representing female empowerment to make money...but they never finish the joke," they wrote.

Another said, "Kinda funny how a man wrote this with her…. And of all people… it was Dr. Luke."
