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 dropped a massive hint that she and Orlando Bloom had already settled on their baby girl's sweet name before she was born.
The singer and her actor fiancé have welcomed their first child together - Daisy Dove Bloom. In the adorable black and white picture posted by Orlando, the besotted couple are seen holding onto the little one's hand.
And it looks like Katy, 35, had her nails done specially ahead of the birth. She had said that they had a shortlist ready but that they wanted their baby to choose her own name.
However, the tiny daisy design on her thumb seems to suggest that they'd settled on the moniker already. Orlando announced the birth on Instagram, sharing a repost from charity Unicef.
