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.
For a first-time mother to be, Katy Perry is not at all worried about the physical agony that can come with delivering a child.
The nine-months pregnant singer is due to deliver a baby girl any day now, and says in a new interview that she won’t entertain any bad energy about childbirth. “The pain will pass.
It’s temporary,” the 35-year-old singer tells the L.A. Times in a new interview, before discussing her upcoming album Smile.
The album was due out in June, then moved back to Aug. 14 and is now set to drop on Aug. 28. At this point the baby might come before her follow up to 2017’s Witness.
