Katy Perry to auction off customised elephant statue for charity

Katy Perry has designed an elephant sculpture which she plans to auction off for charity.

The Firework singer has teamed up with artist Erin Lareau to create a stripy, sparkle-encrusted creature in an effort to raise money for the Elephant Parade fundraiser for Asian elephant conservation.

Having decided to call her masterpiece Dumbina, Katy said that it features echoes of her colour-laden world tour.

‘My elephant was inspired by my California Dreams Tour and Candyfornia – a magical, glittering place where everything is sweet,’ she told the Daily Star. ‘The crystals that adorn the elephant are precious, just like the Asian elephants that need our protection. Let’s raise awareness!’

The elephant will go under the hammer in Milan, Italy.
