| Full Biography |
| The middle child of two pastors, Perry grew up listening to gospel music and singing in church in Santa Barbara, CA. Perry was raised on a strict diet of church music, but one night during a slumber party, Perry happened upon a Queen record, and according to her, "the heavens opened and saved me. From then on, they have been my biggest influence. Their musicality and lyrics were so flamboyant and real. I'd never heard anything like it."
By the time she was 15, Perry was determined to pursue a path in music. At 17, Perry hooked up with legendary producer and songwriter Glen Ballard, who spent years guiding and developing her talent and songwriting. The L.A-based singer-songwriter's sassy confidence and feisty confessional songs have already had fans and savvy media singing her praises. Perry's irrepressible sense of humor shines through on songs like "Ur So Gay" (a hilarious kiss-off to an ex) and "Waking Up in Vegas," both of which are featured on her debut album One of the Boys. Sassy first single "I Kissed A Girl" continues to showcase Perry's wit, but the album also features several honest, searching ballads, like "Lost," (about trying to find yourself after losing your way) and the regretful, emotional "Thinking of You," both of which display a more vulnerable side to this talented, multi-dimensional artist. Whether it's by hearing her music on MTV's The Hills, Oxygen Network's Fight Girls, the soundtrack to the film Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, or by seeing her emotional performance on ABC Family's hit Wildfire, people are now taking notice of Perry. She's also unleashed her considerable charisma making cameos in the videos for Gym Class Heroes' "Cupid's Chokehold," which has been viewed on YouTube more than 18 million times, as well as appeared in a video for P.O.D. In addition, her face has graced ads for Too-Faced Cosmetics' Spring 2007 line. All these things, and more, have people wondering: "Who's that girl?" Official Website: www.katyperry.com |
