7 Facts You Didn’t Know about Katy Perry

Katy Perry is one of the hottest divas in the industry. She is actually quite a multitasker and a rebel in many senses. Her upbringing is actually shocking, considering the attitude she flaunts (there is the rebellion, read it below) and she has had quite a rocking life, as well as her fourth album Prism released in 2013.

Here are the 7 mind-blowing facts about the amazing Katy Perry.

1. The presentation and reality (differences)

Okay, people in showbiz have to adapt to a lot of changes with their realities. Katy has her own secrets and there is nothing wrong with that! Nevertheless, it does no harm to know that there is a human behind the star. To start with, Katy Perry is not her birth name. Her original name is Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson. When her life took her to showbiz, she had to change the name to avoid confusion with actress Kate Hudson. She is a natural blonde, but she keeps them dyed (much like Elvis Presley). Perry is not a made-up name either. It is the maiden name of her mom.

2. The upbringing and the rebellion

Her parents’ raised Katy in very stringent Pentecostal Christian values, being pastors both of them. Her upbringing was so strict that even watching the smurfs or reading Harry Potter was restricted. She once said, if she would not have been a singer, she would have been a stay-at-home mom. Her singing career actually began at the church where she sang from an age of 9 to 17.

You can easily imagine the teenager going to church on masses, not reading Harry Potter, later turning into Katy Perry who sings ‘I kissed a girl”! Did you actually try to imagine? It is kind of hard to believe. However, destiny fulfilled her rebellion very ironically, as her debut film was as the Smurfette at the Smurfs. There, she even had her natural blonde color.

3. She may actually believe in karma

Although there are no straightaway revelations on her spiritual beliefs, given the above Smurf twist of fate, she may actually believe in the ancient Indian idea of Karma. She and Russel Brand also married in India. Reportedly, Russell proposed to her in India while they were watching fireworks from the back of an elephant!

4. Other relationships

Besides the well-known marriage and subsequent divorce with actor Russell Brand, she had been in a relationship with Travis McCoy, lead singer of the Gym Class Heroes. Travis also has a cameo role in her video, “I kissed a girl.” Rumors report that the song has Scarlett Johansson as inspiration. Guest roles are kind of Katy’s favorite thing. She appeared as herself in an episode of “The Young and the Restless” in 2008.

5. Her unknown musical career

Katy can not only sing, but she is also a talented guitar player (both acoustic and electric). She grew up strictly hearing Christian gospel music. Her first non-Christian tune was Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette. She also has a course complete in Italian opera, and she took her first steps into the musical career with Christian pop.

She released that album under her real name. The rebel left home in 17s with only one dream- to make her career in music. She is the only other popstar since Michael Jackson to have a single album with 5 hits in the top slot. Her vocal range is in the control too. She reveals Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” as her favorite track to listen while driving.

6. Her cat

Her cat is Kitty Purry. The cat has her own blog. Speaking of cat things, Katy also launched her own perfume label in November of 2011. The perfume is called Purr, and she appears in the ad with a cat costume, complete with the tail. The bottle of the perfume is also in the shape of a cat. There is also a Katy Perry Barbie doll, released in December 2011. Perhaps, it was on her cat’s advice that she rejected an offer of 20 million dollars to be the judge at the 12th season of the American Idol.

7. Tattoos

She has a tattoo for each one of her albums. There is a strawberry tattoo for ‘One of the Boys’. The Teenage Dream got her a peppermint tattoo.

7 BS Facts About Miley Cyrus Everyone Thinks Are True

Okay, demystifying Miley Cyrus has to be a tough job simply because of her explosive personality.

Okay, demystifying Miley Cyrus has to be a tough job simply because of her explosive personality. Many of her actions literally cause moral explosions in people who are kept by her Hannah Montana image. In fact, even the Hannah Montana ways were true, but life’s experiences taught her to stick her tongue out and twerk on stage at one of the most prestigious glam music events, the MTV VMA. She is a real girl with an attitude of rejecting all BS aimed at her, and she does that in sassy popstar style (with her tongue sticking out). Find below the ultimate list of seven outrageous wrong ideas everyone has about Miley.

1. Her portrayal of Hannah Montana was fake

This is perhaps the most common reason Miley haters state. They just cannot bear to see that cute, homely girl from HM turn into a wild sex thing right on stage, or while swerving on a wrecking ball with a revealing costume. Come on people…wake up to reality! Hannah Montana was the character of a teenager in love with the fantasy of beautiful things in life.

Everyone knows how love relationships shatter, transforming a person. Her romance with Nick Jonas and the subsequent breakup was a major emotional turning point. She even went to the extent of dyeing her golden locks to a deep dark shade to cope with the depression. Hannah Montana changed to Miley Cyrus, but inwards she is still the loving, caring girl.

2. She is someone who does not understand what love is

It is perhaps the most common knowledge that a person who loves dogs as a family member is never inherently bad. She has thousands of pics with her favorite Floyd. She recently tattooed her dog on her back. She is still the diva who showed what love is to millions of teenage girls in America and across the world. Her love songs are not without depth, as most of the popstars of today conjure.

3. She is super crazy about being sexy

How is that a crime? It is certainly difficult to understand it. It is practically the rawest patriarchal BS that goes on around in every society. Whenever a girl is bold, wild, and free, there are always some people questioning her display of passion. In fact, these hypocrites themselves are the biggest watchers of Miley’s raunchy videos. If you do not believe it, just ask anyone who hates Miley, how many times did he/she watch her twerking.

4. She has a bad singing voice

It is practically impossible to say how much trash this assumption is. In an interview, she told that she treats her music as if they are in a relationship. In the same interview, she described music as her ‘main love’. Her interview concluded, “I will never look back to my music as if we had a breakup.” Someone so serious about music cannot be a bad singer. She is amazing with the guitar.

Besides, she grew up in a musical environment right from her childhood. Even the Hannah Montana character she played was that of a musical prodigy. A company like Disney does not hire someone to play a musical prodigy if the actress has a bad singing voice.

5. She does not care about her family

This allegation again comes from the set of mind in seeing her as a daddy’s daughter in Hannah Montana. Girls grow up, get over it people! She is very affectionate to her family members and she often finds time to spend with her family. She is very close to her loved ones. Haters must know that her family came out in full support of her controversial VMA performance. Her sister Brandi, father Billy & his wife Tish, all supported Miley.

6. She shows fake emotions

This is the most untrue of all allegations. Instead, she is a hellraiser kind of real. This does not need an explanation! She will just do anything she wants with absolute courage. The fact is, many people fear her courage and they try to put her down. Miley is unputdownable any day. No fake star goes so extreme even with haircuts. Girls know how important the hair is. Miley just chopped them off one day on a whim. Maybe she is showing a happy face but nobody perhaps knows how much she is crying inside.

7. She is a fame-monger

Does this allegation even hold ground? She is in showbiz! She has to attract fame. It is a matter of her career and her survival in a bitching world.
