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.
One “American Idol” contestant is reflecting on an awkward moment with judge Katy Perry during her audition. Earlier this month, 25-year-old mother of three Sarah Beth was featured on the music competition show.
As Sarah Beth was introducing herself, the judges all seemed shocked to learn she was 25, with Perry, 38, noting the singer looked 16.
When Sarah Beth told the judges that she was a mother of three, Perry stood up fanning herself in apparent shock. “If Katy lays on the table, I think I’m going to pass out,” the visibly nervous Sarah Beth said. “Honey, you’ve been laying on the table too much,” Perry quipped, referencing the young mother’s family.
Shortly after the audition aired, Sarah Beth took to her TikTok account to comment on Perry’s joke, saying it “wasn’t super kind.” “It was embarrassing to have that on TV, and it was hurtful and that’s that,” the mother of three said, adding, “I think that women supporting and uplifting other women is so cool and I think that mom shaming is super lame and I think that it’s hard enough to be a mom and it’s hard enough to be a woman.” Sarah Beth concluded her message, saying, “I see all of the young moms and just moms in general… keep loving your babies.
