Just the opportunity of being within such close vicinity of Katy was incredible! The foam was actually slightly under an inch thick, so I could feel nearly every touch from her. Originally, Katy wasn't coreographed to walk over to me, but when she arrived at the rehearsal location, the staging was changed to better fit the lyrics of the song ("... underneath the palm trees.")

TL;DR: ABSOLUTELY!

There was an entire wardrobe crew dressed in white haz-mat-like outfits devoted to sprinting on/off the stage and changing her clothes, which were, for the most part, snap-on.

That was me! :)

HELL YEAH! :D

Edit for clarification: I was THE tree.

Sorry to let you down, but Katy Perry did NOT smell like corndogs.
