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.
“American Idol” contestant Doug Kiker, a definite fan favourite, got emotional as he was eliminated from the competition on Monday’s show.
Kiker, who works as a garbage man in Alabama, went viral after he belted out Rascal Flatts’ “Bless the Broken Road” during his audition.
However, the judges weren’t so impressed on the first day of Hollywood Week. Kiker, who continuously gushed over his two-year-old daughter in his VT, shared, “I’m starting to become who I want to be,” but admitted he was feeling sick before taking the stage.
The judges said, after his a cappella performance of “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough”, that he struggled to stay in the right key, with Katy Perry adding: “I love him but I’m just not sure.” RELATED: ‘American Idol’
