Cheetos mascot to wrestler! Katy Perry's Super Bowl half-time show leads to explosion of Internet memes, Katy Perry took over the Super Bowl during a spectacular halftime show and her 12-minute performance quickly sparked a slew of Internet memes.

The 30-year-old pop superstar made a dramatic entrance wearing a red and yellow flaming dress and riding atop a mechanised tiger.

Her fiery outfit earned quick comparisons online to the late US professionnal wrestler Bam Bam Bigelow who wore outfits with hot-rod style flames along with a large flame tattoo on his head.

Others promptly pointed out that Katy resembled Chester Cheetah - the official mascot for Cheetos snacks.
Her entrance to others also evoked memories of Peter Griffin riding a lion in an episode of the animated comedy The Family Guy.

Some also thought the outfit was similar to the ice skating costume worn by Will Ferrell in his 2007 comedy Blades Of Glory.

Yet others thought the dress was reminiscent of Jennifer Lawrence's flaming gown that she wore as Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games.

Katy next belted out her hit song Roar while riding atop the gigantic cat on the floor of University Of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, California.

The brunette beauty after singing Dark Horse introduced 50-year-old rocker Lenny Kravitz for a duet of I Kissed A Girl with flames erupting in the background.

Katy changed outfits for her next song Teenage Dream that featured toothy beach balls and dancing sharks who some thought were making Nazi salutes during their dancing.

Her red, white, yellow and blue dress was compared to the outfit worn by girls at the Hot Dog On A Stick counter.
Katy busted out California Gurls in the same outfit before changing into an all-black ensemble for her duet with Missy Elliott.

She switched into a silver dress adorned with stars for her final song Firework that featured her singing while flying high above the stadium floor as pyrotechnics sparkled behind her.

Commenters on the Internet noted that Katy as she flew threw the air resembled NBC's logo for its The More You Know series of public service announcements.

Katy, real name Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson, earlier on Sunday shared a throwback photo of herself as a child and dedicated her performance to her younger self.

'Today is for this girl. She had the dream, always believed in herself & her worth. Today she is the one smiling,' Katy tweeted.
