Born Katheryn Elizabeth "Katy" Hudson on October 25, 1984 in Santa Barbara, California, Katy Perry pursued a career in gospel music as a teen and released her debut studio album, Katy Hudson in 2001. In April 2007, Perry signed a recording contract with Capitol Records and hit the mainstream with her single "I Kissed a Girl" followed by her second album, One of the Boys in 2008, a pop rock effort about heartbreak and other teenage themes.
Perry's third record, Teenage Dream (2010), was preceded by the Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping singles "California Gurls" and "Teenage Dream", and later produced the number-one singles "Firework", "E.T.", and "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)". Teenage Dream became the first album recorded by a female artist in history to produce five number-one hits, and the second album overall after Michael Jackson's Bad in 1987.
Her fourth album, Prism (2013), was preceded by the Number One single "Roar" and features Swedish dance music influences with themes such as living in the present, relationships, and self-empowerment. Perry has received numerous awards and nominations, including eleven Grammy nominations and Billboard dubbed her as 2012's Woman of the Year.
She remains the only artist to spend 69 consecutive weeks in the top ten of the Hot 100. Perry is also the third best selling digital singles artist in the US according to RIAA. In late July 2011, she made her film debut voicing Smurfette in The Smurfs. Billboard ranked Perry at number fourteen on their 2011 list of top moneymakers, grossing more than $11 million.
In early July 2012, she released her 3D autobiographical documentary film, Katy Perry: Part of Me, which concentrated on her life as a touring artist and the breakdown of her one-year marriage to English actor/comedian Russell Brand. As of November 2013, Perry has sold more than 11 million albums and 81 million singles worldwide and her singles are some of the best-selling worldwide. (Source: Wikipedia.org)
