Fashion Icon of the week: Katy Perry

Hey loves! This weeks fashion icon is Katy Perry! She is one of my favorite singers. She started singing at the age of 9 at her church. She then learned to play the guitar at age 15 and released in album for Christian label Red Hill. This was unsuccessful. Katy then left her home at the age of 17 for Los Angeles where she worked for record label Island. The album was due in 2005 but Billboard also announced it went nowhere. Katy eventually signed over to Capitol Records. This is what eventually got her going. This started her album One of the Boys, with the hit single I Kissed a Girl. The album has reached number nine on the Billboard 200. Because of this Katy won several awards such as Best International Female Artist at the 2009 BRIT awards. Her second single Hot n Cold reached number three on Billboard's Hot 100. Perry's new album Teenage Dream will be out August 24. She has announced her own fragrance to be released in autumn of this year, named "Purr." Perry is known for her unique style. It's often bright in color. Her stylist describes her style as "very vintage and colorful." Katy is currently engaged to British comedian Russell Brand.
