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.
When "American Idol" was revived in 2018 on ABC, it came with a new judging panel that included Katy Perry, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie.
It was a fresh start for the show on a new network, but over the past few months, "Teenage Dream" singer Perry has been under fire for harsh critiques, earning her comparisons to the original "mean" judge, Simon Cowell.
The most notable instance of Perry’s so-called harsh judgments came in March, when she was accused of "mom-shaming" contestant Sara Beth Liebe in the audition room.
Liebe surprised judges when they learned she was a 25-year-old mother of three. Perry noted that she looked so young and fake fainted. "If Katy [lies on] the table, I think I’m going to pass out," Liebe said.
