Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson (born October 25, 1984), known professionally as Katy Perry, is an American singer, songwriter, and television judge. After singing in church during her childhood, she pursued a career in gospel music as a teenager.
Perry signed with Red Hill Records and released her debut studio album Katy Hudson under her birth name in 2001, which was commercially unsuccessful. She moved to Los Angeles the following year to venture into secular music after Red Hill ceased operations and she subsequently began working with producers Glen Ballard, Dr. Luke, and Max Martin.
After adopting the stage name Katy Perry and being dropped by The Island Def Jam Music Group and Columbia Records, she signed a recording contract with Capitol Records in April 2007.
The Radford family, stars of Channel 5's '22 Kids and Counting', faced their fears in a recent episode. Sue and Noel Radford's son Daniel revealed his plans to relocate to Australia after securing a job there, but he needed to overcome his fear of driving, which stemmed from a car accident two years prior.Daniel opened up about the incident, while his mother Sue expressed her concerns about him moving halfway across the globe.
Recalling the accident, Sue said: "We were actually in America when we found out about this and Daniel had text Noel to say 'Is Mum with you?' I think he was more worried about my reaction than how he was because he knew we would be really worried about him."Daniel was always a really confident person, he was a confident driver but since this accident, I think his confidence with driving has really taken a knock because he's not wanted to drive another car."By the end of the episode, Daniel mustered the courage to drive again and announced that he would be accepting the job in Australia.
This news will undoubtedly upset Sue, who earlier stated: "I do fear the kids leaving home. I'm going to miss him."Daniel's decision to move means he'll soon be saying goodbye to both his family and the show, reports the Mirror.In another part of the episode, Aimee took on the task of training her family for a tough mudder event.
