‘Madam Secretary’ Sneak Peek: Is America’s Diplomacy Ace ... Katy Perry?!
Dreaming of world peace? Just send in Katy Perry!
On this week’s new episode of Madam Secretary, Bess (Téa Leoni) and her staff are preparing for a big state dinner to host the visiting president of France. When Chief of Staff Russell Jackson (Željko Ivanek) asks for an update, they assure him that pop star Katy Perry has confirmed her attendance and will be seated by the French president.
“Excellent. It is vital to the future happiness of everyone in this room, and your loved ones, that this dinner goes off without a hitch,” Russell says.

But Katy Perry aside, Bess and her team needle Russell about the inclusion of several tech billionaires on the guest list. These power players withdrew their support from President Dalton when he became an independent. And if they’d been invited as a kind of quid pro quo, Nadine (Bebe Neuwirth) points out, “That could be construed as mildly unethical.”
And not even Katy Perry can solve that!
Madam Secretary airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on CBS.
