My dad would give me $10, which is a lot of money when you're 9, to sing at church, on tables at restaurants, at family functions, just about anywhere.
Katy PerryMy career is like an artichoke. People might think that the leaves are tasty and buttered up and delicious, and they don't even know that there's something magical hidden at the base of it. There's a whole other side of me that people didn't know existed.
Katy PerryDivorce was emotionally traumatic for me. It was the death of a dream. I was in fairytale land, and the reality of it wasn't so. But I don't really like talking about it anymore, because it feels like a thousand lifetimes ago, and also it makes me look desperate, like I need it for attention.
Katy PerryA lot of people do things out of fear. A lot of people make choices, based on thinking, they wonโt have a career in five years. I know where I am, I know what I do is worth something and does not have an expiration date on it. Iโm not making choices โ in any capacity of my life, with any kind of endorsement, with any kind of product โ out of fear.
