Which pop songs should I sing for my audition?

I am a mezzo-soprano auditioning for an a capella choir. The choir mainly sings pop songs, so I would like to sing something in that genre. The audition is a 60 second mixture of any two songs (the verse of one and the chorus of another.) I was thinking of doing part of a Katy Perry song and possibly part of a Demi Lovato song, but I'm not sure. I'd like whichever songs I sing to be fairly emotional and expressive. Thank you! :)

Why not sing something by jesse j? Try "Alive" or "Domino".

Try a Rhianna song with a Beyoncé tune.
