Bio: Katy
Perry
Since Katy Perry’s Capitol Records debut in 2008 with One of the Boys, she has racked up a cumulative 50
billion streams alongside worldwide sales of over 48 million adjusted albums
and 135 million tracks with her albums One of the Boys, Teenage Dream,
PRISM and Witness. Her
summer 2019 single, “Never Really Over,” off her latest album SMILE, is
certified PLATINUM and was the biggest streaming launch of Katy’s musical
career. 2020’s SMILE release has sold over 1.25 million adjusted albums, with
nearly 2 Billion combined streams to date. Views of her 2013 video “Roar”
recently surpassed three billion views – making Katy the first female artist to
reach this milestone, while “Dark Horse” is close behind with over 2.9 billion
views. Katy was also the first female artist to have four videos surpass
a billion views each. Her videos for “Firework” and “Last Friday Night” have
over one billion views. Katy’s 2015 Super Bowl performance is the highest rated
in the event’s history. She is one of only five artists in history to have
topped 100 million certified units with their digital singles – and the
first-ever Capitol Records recording artist to join the elite RIAA 100 Million
Certified Songs club.
Aside from being one of the best-selling musical artists of all time,
Katy is an active advocate of many philanthropic causes. In 2013, Katy was
appointed a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador because of her commitment to improving
the lives of children worldwide. From traveling to Vietnam and Madagascar to
highlight the needs of some of the world’s most vulnerable children, to
empowering girls and supporting adolescents living with HIV/AIDS, as well as raising
awareness for UNICEF’s emergency relief efforts, Katy has used her powerful
voice to advocate for children and support UNICEF’s mission to ensure every
child’s right to health, education, equality, and protection. She was awarded
with the Audrey Hepburn Humanitarian Award in 2016.
Katy has also been a champion for LGBTQ+ equality. She has received
numerous awards for her work, including the Trevor Project's Hero Award in
2012, the Human Rights Campaign's National Equality Award in 2017, and amfAR’s
Award of Courage in 2018. She has also performed at various events to raise
funds for the fight against HIV/AIDS, including 2009's Life Ball and 2016's
amfAR Cannes Gala.
