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.
Orlando Bloom reveals Katy Perry relationship can be 'really, really, really challenging'
foxnews.comActor Orlando Bloom isn't shying away from sharing how difficult things can be in his relationship with pop star Katy Perry, revealing in a new interview that things are sometimes "really, really, really challenging." "We’re in two very different pools," he told Flaunt magazine of his fiancee and their careers. "Her pool is not a pool that I necessarily understand, and I think my pool is not a pool that she necessarily understands." The "Carnival Row" actor divulged that things are not always easy, although he is aware of how lucky they are. "I won’t lie.
We definitely battle with our emotions and creativity, [but] I think we’re both aware of how blessed we are to have uniquely connected in the way that we did at the time that we did," he said. "There’s definitely never a dull moment," he said of his relationship with the "Firework" singer.
Bloom currently has a project in the works with Peacock TV, one that follows the actor putting himself in gravely dangerous scenarios.
For the show, Bloom learned how to free dive, trying parachuting as well as wingsuiting, another type of skydiving in which the participant wears a suit with webbing under the arms to simulate wings.The stunts, Bloom admits, have "stressed" Perry.They have also made Bloom realize that he can't "wing it" like he used to.
