Katy Perry
In 2001, Katy Perry was Katy Hudson, and she released her debut album, a Christian music album, under that exact name. Perry grew up only listening to gospel music because both of her parents are Pentecostal pastors. The album didn’t do well, and trying her hand at getting another record deal at the age of 17, Perry left home for Los Angeles and before we knew it, she was singing “I Kissed A Girl,” dressing raunchy, and going by her stage name, Katy Perry (she didn’t want to be confused for actress Kate Hudson).
