Katy Perry

Katy Perry was born to pastor parents Maurice Hudson and Mary Perry. Raised in a religious family, the only music she was allowed to listen to were Sister Act 1 & 2 tracks and not other rock or any popular music. Perry started taking her music lessons at the age of 9 and she also learned to play the guitar at 13. Soon she was interested in pursuing a career in music and started rebelling against her upbringing by her parents. Her first experience was singing in a church.

“All that begins well ends well." With her mother’s help, she recorded her first album Katy Hudson, which was not a great success. Perry signed up for various labels, but none of them lasted long and never brought success on her side. She started providing backing vocals for songs. It was not over. It was just the beginning when she was introduced to Virgin Records Chairman Jason Flom that resulted in her recording her second song One of the Boys and in 2008 she released her single “I Kissed a Girl” which became a hit despite being dragged into several controversies.
