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 has been criticized for her treatment of contestants during the current season of "American Idol," but in a new clip, one of the contestants in question actually apologized to her. "Katy, I wanted to apologize because I felt very bad when you said to me, ‘More grace, more grace,’" contestant Nutsa Buzaladze told her, referring to an incident last week in which Perry judged her and her duet partner, Carina DeAngelo, for not working well together. "And I wanted to like tell also my side of the story," she continued, "and I felt so bad I was, like, frozen.Then I didn't want to bring negative energy, so that's why I didn't say nothing.
I thought that because I didn't speak up that I could not really speak because I did not want to cry onstage, but after I left the stage I was just like destroyed, so I wanted to apologize for this." In the previous episode, Buzaladze and DeAngelo were paired together to sing a duet, and DeAngelo mentioned immediately before the performance that Buzaladze had slept through a rehearsal.
The complaint set an awkward tone for their performance, and after it was over Perry told them that it was "underwhelming." "I just think the energy was broken between both of you, and so I think you couldn’t give each other the energy you both needed.That you both deserved," Perry said. "I think you’re both better than that performance." "Katy is so rude and condescending to the contestants unless it's a male cutie then she acts like a teenage fool," one user commented on a photo shared by host Ryan Seacrest following that show. "Sooooo much drama!
