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.
Katy Perry doesn’t expect any special treatment when dining out. The singer, who is currently in Australia with her partner Orlando Bloom while he films “Wizards!” in Far North Queensland, headed to a Port Douglas café recently, but the waitress didn’t recognize her.
The story has since blown up on social media. Choo Choos worker Indianna Paull spoke to Sunrise about the surprise meeting, explaining how Perry headed to the café on Saturday with her one-year-old daughter Daisy Dove.
Paull shared how she didn’t recognize Perry because she was wearing a hat and sunglasses, so told her she’d just have to wait to be seated as there were no tables available.
