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 and Orlando Bloom welcomed their daughter Daisy Dove Bloom earlier this week. But while their baby girl's name came as a surprise to some fans, others had a feeling about the name after Katy dropped several hints months ago.
Back in May, then heavily-pregnant Katy announced the release of her first track from her album Smile. The song name was Daisies, which was essentially the first hint the singer gave to fans.
She then continued to leave very subtle hints on social media ever since. Katy said the song Daisies is a symbol of "strength and resilience" for her and says it's the anthem for "going for your dreams".
