Katy Perry, actually Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson [2] (born October 25, 1984 in Santa Barbara) - American pop singer, songwriter [1], actress, entrepreneur and philanthropist, and UNICEF goodwill ambassador.
Born and raised in Santa Barbara, California, her father is a pastor. In 2001, she released her debut studio album entitled Katy Hudson, but it did not achieve commercial success [3]. Then she took the pseudonym Katy Perry and recorded two more albums: with the producer band Matrix and a solo, which has not been released. In 2007, she signed a contract with Capitol Records.
She gained popularity with the album One of the Boys, released in 2008, promoted by two world hits: "I Kissed a Girl" and "Hot n Cold". The album took thirty-third place among the best-selling music albums in 2008 [4]. In 2009, the American Billboard magazine placed Perry in the 50th position among the most popular musicians of the 2000–2009 decade [5]. Teenage Dream, her third studio album, is the eleventh bestseller of 2010 [6] and the ninth of 2011 [7]. The album and its re-release include eight singles, six of which took the first position on the Billboard Hot 100. Thus, Katy Perry, as the first woman and second artist in history (after Michael Jackson from Bad), promoted five songs from one album to the top of the official charts in the United States: "California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", "Firework", "ET" and "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" [8]. The singer's fourth album, Prism, was announced the best-selling album released by a woman in 2013 [9]. The singles promoting the release, "Roar" and "Dark Horse", became another international hit of Perry.
