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.

They are used to having their separate careers and not being on top of each other every day." While the source says the "Never Really Over" singer, 35, and Carnival Row actor, 43, "have disagreements and conflicts like all couples," they are "not a big deal." Rather, the stars are focusing on their baby girl, who is due this summer. © 2020 Getty Images BRIGHT, AUSTRALIA - MARCH 11: Katy Perry performs on March 11, 2020 in Bright, Australia.
