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.
Jon Bon Jovi was among the many performers to take to one of the America-wide stages for Wednesday night’s “Celebrating America” in honour of the inauguration of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
The famed rocker and his backing band performed virtually from Miami, and chose a fitting song: a cover of The Beatles’ “Here Comes the Sun”.
The iconic George Harrison-penned song set the perfect hopeful tone for the star-studden inauguration concert, which also featured performances from Katy Perry, Bruce Springsteen and John Legend.
