Short bio: 

Katy Perry was born in Santa Barbara and actually started her career in Christian Music. She used her birth name "Katy Hudson" and recorded a debut Christian Contemporary album as a teen in 2001. When her label went out of business, "Hudson" says she started writing love songs and fun songs.. just hoping one day someone would hear what she had to sing. In 2007 She signed with Capitol records, changed her name to KATY PERRY. That's when she took the pop music world by storm with songs like "I Kissed a Girl" and "Hot n Cold." Perry's third record, Teenage Dream (2010), spawned the Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping singles "California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", "Firework", "E.T." and "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)". It became the first album recorded by a female artist in history to produce five number-one hits, and the second album overall behind Michael Jackson's Bad (1987). Perry embarked on the California Dreams Tour following its release. In 2012, it was reissued as Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection and contained the number-one single "Part of Me".

I just cannot believe you support HILLARY CLINTON. J am not saying to support TRUMP but how can you support a party that lies, controls media, controls the voting process and especially a candidate that has done so many questionable acts....
1) she took money from foreign countries, many from middle eastern countries.
2) she had a for profit university scam that gave her hubby 16 million and yes that university has lawsuits
- she has publically spoken negatively of for profit universities.
3) she has had secret speeches with high powered Wall Street corporations and CEO for LOTS OF $$$$
- she refuses to give transcripts of those speeches.
- many of these high powered Wall Street corporations had to pay penalties in the billions for their part in our countries economic crash a few years back
- what can she say to them that she cannot say to us.
4) many of the many given to the Clintons from other countries and university scam went through her foundation
5) Her foundation has a company in Canada that handles the questions money they received because Canada has a disclosure law that they hoped to protect them from revealing where the mine came from.
6) there is a limit to how much a campaign can receive from ec corporations and individuals. That is why Wall Street started paying Clintons BIG MONEY for speeches... Loop hole.
7) now to her email issue. All these illegal and unethical activities needed communication from her as she was Secretary of State. She could not use the govt email so she used her personal email and her own server to try to hide it from the public. That is why it was an issue getting the deleted emails.
- she eventually gave emails to the court and swore under oath she gave the court all of them
- just this week it was discovered she neglected to turn over hundreds of other emails!
8) all money given to and gifts given to a public official are the property of the United States govt by law. The official can keep the gifts but has to pay the govt the value of the gift. She did neither!
9) when her and her hubby left the White House the illegally stole money things that belonged to the White House. It is pre furnished... You leave with only the things you entered the White House with. They were forced to return some items but they kept many of the items that belonged to our govt.
10) factor 8 AIDES scam that made them money when Bill was govenor
I am sure I am forgetting some. This is just on the top of my head.
11) 6 billion tax dollars went missing under Hillarys state department
12) Under Clinton's leadership, the State Department approved $165 billion worth of commercial arms sales to 20 nations whose governments have given money to the Clinton Foundation
I think you have lost track of the people that struggle. I suppose you don't care because they are the ones who cannot afford your tickets. The Democratic Party and media wants racism to exist. The Democratic Party because they campaign on ending it but keep an economical racial divide, media because racism increases rating this money plus the same big business that supports your precious Hillary pays off the media with advertisement. Keep ur advertisers happy...rt.
Look any of these facts up for yourself. I did not even mention everything.

I truly hope that "when" Hillary wins the presidential election, your song Rise will be playing loud and clear. Never have these words been more fitting, especially now. The part that largely seems written for her that stikes me most is this:

Oh, ye of so little faith
Don't doubt it, don't doubt it
Victory is in my veins
I know it, I know it
And I will not negotiate
I'll fight it, I'll fight it
I will transform
When, when the fire's at my feet again
And the vultures all start circling
They're whispering, "You're out of time,"
But still I rise
This is no mistake, no accident
When you think the final nail is in
Think again
Don't be surprised

Make sure this song gets played or sung by you. I am sure I am not the first to think of this or suggest it. If she wins after these awful few days, these words couldn't be more fitting.

I will still rise

You're so young. Couldn't tell HRC a 'great actress'. Not as good as ones from the 40's. She fooled quite of few people. If it was not Trump. She would have lost in landslide!
You see, us with life experience know the Clintons history and how they operate.
They've been for money, which gave them POWER. Finally, they fade into past ....

Your music has lifted me up from when I was down. It's pushed me passed my limits. It even got me to regionals in wrestling! And now I'm in the army fighting the good fight and it can be stressful just like your job pleasing millions of people isn't a easy task. So I wanted to thank you for always being awesome and I will continue being awesome. Oh and I forgot to say hey lol

Either you're incredibly stupid and naive or you're an egregious opportunist and a hypocrite. You have armed guards and a wall around your house. For all we know you might have a moat with alligators. The you hae either the nerve or the ignorance to call for open borders and everyone coexisting with no laws to protect us. Whether you mean it or a hypocrite you're dead wrong and mindless to even say it. Stop listening to that delusional piece of garbage Hillary Clinton.

I love you Katy you are my Idol! I have loved you and your music since I could speak! I am listening to your new album as I type this. I also love what you have done with your hair. Just wanted to let you know that the people we really care about you well always have your back! Love you, your the best!

Dear Katy Perry,
First I want to say thank you for doing what you do and doing it well. I am very thankful for who you are and what you do in the industry. I have been a fan for several years and I am just now able to afford to see you for the first time and I felt the need to share my experience with your music and make a request.
I still remember the first time I heard a Katy Perry song. “I kissed a girl and I liked it.” My parents were outraged. I was told to turn that terrible music off. I'd then go to my room and listen to it on repeat. Finally I could hear someone expressing themselves and I could totally relate to what you were explaining in that song. Then songs like, Hot and Cold and California Girls and even Teenage Dream just really connected with me. As a teenager struggling with their sexual identity I really just appreciated what you sang over the years.
My junior year of college I dated my first boyfriend. I fell in love and then of course he broke my heart. I had begun the process of coming out to my friends and family. I had just been accepted into my schools program for my major. I also deal with some mental health issues. I was overwhelmed, hurt, in pain, ostracized, and felt very, very unloved. I became suicidal. I knew how I was going to die. I knew how I wanted it to happen and the statement I wanted to make with my death. I was in such a terrible place. I was utterly alone and felt like even God could not lift me from this dark place.
I was ready to finalize my steps. I was prepared and aware of the consequences of my actions. I was ready to die. As I sat in the library at school, I really just started coming to terms with my decision to kill myself. When your album Prism dropped, and I heard Unconditional for the first time, I wept. Tears flying, snot running, blasting the song on repeat for hours in the university library. It floored me. Unconditional changed my world. Because of your song and the action of a few good friends, I received help and am now no longer suicidal. Because of Unconditional I am alive today!
I realize that the song was not written as you speaking to the audience or the listener. I understand that you as an artist were speaking about a personal situation. But I want you to know that because of your vulnerability, because you chose to be open and share your story, you saved my life. I heard God say to me, “I will love you unconditionally.” “Open up your heart and just let it begin.” Christ was able to speak through you to me. He showed his love for me with your powerful and beautiful voice.
I am so grateful for you and your music. I wanted to express my thankfulness and love for you and what you do. Just know no matter how hard it gets, or how low you feel, you are capable of saving and changing lives. Thank you for letting God use you to save me. Please don't stop doing what you love.
I am coming to see you on December 7, in Grand Rapids, Michigan. My boyfriend and another couple are coming to see you. It would be such an honor and a life changing experience if we could meet you or even come back stage to watch for a little bit. I know you must get a lot of requests and I acknowledge the sacrifices you make for your fans. If you some how read this and could spare a few minutes it would mean the world to me.
Thank you in advance for the performance. Thank you again for everything you do. I so look forward to see you on December 7.
“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be timid, do not be discouraged. For the Lord your God walks with you every step of the way.” - Joshua 1:9

Hey Katy Kat. Sorry to say but I don’t really get into your music. I’m into punk rock. In fact I used to play drums in one of Australia’s top punk bands in the 90s and early 00s. I am from Melbourne Australia. The reason I like you is that I reckon you’d be a great girl to have a few beers with. So yeah next time you’re in Melbourne Australia and have a spare day look me up and I’ll take you to my brother’s brewery

Watching you on American Idol as a "judge" is funny, because you aren't harsh at all. Instead your criticism is kind and constructive. Our daughter (age 10) has gained confidence in her musical abilities (violin and singing) because she imagines you in her "audience." She is now happier sharing her gifts at home and that has been especially important lately. She was "embarrassed" playing in front of just me and the dog that owns us. Now, she plays solo for her teacher (Zoom) to get help, which wouldn't have been possible previously, before "meeting" you as new watchers of American Idol.
Thank You!

Hey Katy.I hope you're well and safe and healthy.......I just don't know how to express my thoughts in words but...... I just want you to know that you're the inspiration of my life.I really love you and your songs.They feel special to me in a way that I don't even know......it doesn't just make me happy and relaxed it inspires me to be the best person I can be.......You're the greatest singer in world for me.ever.I really really want to meet you......but that's gonna be hard.......cos I am from Sri Lanka you see.It's a tropical paradise basically on the other side of the globe. I count my fingers for the day when I'm finally gonna meet you.I imagine (daydream more like) what it would be to talk to you, to learn from you and just to look at the world like you do. Cos Katy you aren't just the greatest singer of all time for me. You're probably the greatest women in the world for me (right next to my mum).Cos you see Katy, before I listened to your songs all I wanted to be was a doctor. Just a doctor. But after I listened to your songs I didn't just want to be a doctor. I want to be so much more. A CEO, Manager, an entrepreneur etc. You gave me the confidence, energy, self belief to dream bigger and better. I just want to thank you so much for that.I want to be all that and more and tell the world that the reason I'm successful is cos of you. Sometimes I'd get up at like 2am to study cos I got A/Ls coming in a few months.Sometimes I'd feel drowsy and want to go back to bed. But when I think of you, I get like motivated that my drowsiness just disappears and it's replaced by determination and hope etc. It's like that energy is from the universe except that it's all you. I just want to meet you and talk to you so badly It's like a desire. I just can't keep thinking about you. I can't keep my mind straight cos I just want to come to you and meet you and tell all this to you in person. I am having trouble studying cause that desire is just so powerful that all I want now is to meet you.In my imagination you'd be my best friend, you are always there for me. In my imagination you would always help me overcome my problems, too would always be there for me. And I'd always try to be there for you.You are like a sister to me, like a goddess from heaven who I feel like as though knows everything about love and happiness and stuff. Sometimes when I realize that you're only my friend in my imagination, I just can't bear it. I don't even realize that I am crying until I realize that tears are pouring across my face. I would've wished to be born as your friend but since I'm not, I'm trying be a successful personality so that one day I could meet you in person. I just hope that wonderful and beautiful day comes really soon. I really really love. There's nothing I wouldn't do for you. I just want to be happy and enjoy this wonderful life with your family and friends. You have inspired the minds of thousands and millions of people all over the world, given them hope and dreams that cannot be bought. So I'd like to ask you to continue to inspire the hearts of people across the world. All I want is 10000 hours with you and 10000 more. Love you forever.........
I'm sorry this is a bit long. I don't know if my English is good enough to make this message beautiful like I wanted to but I think it's okay.

Hi Katie. I want to start by saying thank you. I am a mommy to a bright nonverbal 8 year old and she loves you. She is a very dedicated fan to your song FIREWORKS. She plays this song for hours, religiously. I want you to know that she has started to sing (or in her case babbles the majority of the song) yet she can now sing one line of this song (again not that well) but now she is producing "Baby youre a firework" clear as day every third time she tries (I say that because the song is rewound every 5 seconds). Thank you for producing such a magical song my beautiful daughter can enjoy and just loves. Pyper and Chrystal
