First it calls her the Queen of Camp, then mentions a failed Gospel album and being dropped by a record label. I’m not even particularly a huge fan but Katy is a best selling artist who has been streamed billions of times and just sold her catalogue for $200+ million. She is a huge success. The intro paragraph is negative and doesn’t at all show her relevance, mentioning Fireworks, her huge hit etc. her talent as a writer is completely ignored. Imagine your entire life being written about and the intro is a list of teenage failures. It’s mad. 85.255.234.164 (talk) 17:19, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It actually isn't so negative to bring her first album up, and Firework is mentioned later in the introduction. We can't fit all the big details into one paragraph. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 19:12, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
None of her teenage life is important enough for the first para, which should describe her notability. She became notable in 2008. Many entertainers take years to become notable. I've split the first para into two; perhaps more should be added to the first. Jim 2 Michael (talk) 17:33, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Those admittedly look kind of bare now, especially compared to subsequent paragraphs. If it's not feasible to merge those back together, then I'm not sure yet what else to add, but am open to ideas. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 20:19, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It unfortunately appears to be a copyright violation unless by some chance you were the one who first took this pic of her. If that was someone else's photo, then don't try to pass the thing off as your own work. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 15:11, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Who ever put the picture was wrong to put that picture![edit]
Change "contralto voice range" to "mezzo-soprano voice range"' The source linked is an article inaccurately attributing Perry's voice type as a contralto when any musically trained/knowledged person can easily assert she is a mezzo soprano. 2601:300:477F:2470:F568:9D3B:E4AB:4909 (talk) 04:34, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: There are two cited sources that say it is contralto. If you want to change it you will need to find sources that say otherwise. RudolfRed (talk) 05:01, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
