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.

Steele said that while he enjoyed working with both Lionel Richie, 73, and Luke Bryan, 46, it was Perry who was able to make him “Smile.”A post shared by Oliver (@oliversteelemusic)“Katy always seemed to be able to look into my soul and tell exactly what was troubling me, or what it was I was struggling with,” rambled the Nashville, Tennessee, native. “It’s one thing to teach someone to believe in their ability, which the judges are fabulous at.
Katy reminded me to believe in who I am as an artist.” According to Steele, Perry “challenged me to push myself, to take on challenges that made me uncomfortable,” adding that he believed he was a better musician because of her “Dark Horse”.
