Katy memiliki dua saudara yakni Angela Hudson (kakak) dan David Hudson (adik). Sejak berusia sembilan tahun, Katy telah menunjukkan bakat menyanyinya. Dia kerap bernyanyi di gereja binaan Keith dan Mary. Katy dididik dengan keras oleh ibunya dan hanya diperbolehkan mendengarkan lagu rohani. Selain menyanyi, Katy juga piawai menari. Beranjak dewasa, Katy membulatkan tekad untuk berkarir di bidang musik. Katy kemudian keluar dari sekolahnya dan meneruskan pendidikan di Music Academy of the West di Santa Barbara. Katy juga mempelajari opera Italia untuk memperdalam kemampuan menyanyinya.

Di usia 15, Katy telah merilis debut album bertema rohani yang mengusung aliran rock berjudul "Katy Hudson" (2001). Saat itu dia menyandang nama panggung Katy Hudson. Sayangnya, debut album Katy gagal di pasaran. Setelah label rekaman yang menaungi Katy, Red Hill, bangkrut, Katy mulai mempertimbangkan untuk mengganti aliran musik. Menandai perubahan dirinya, Katy juga mengganti nama belakangnya menjadi Perry. Nama tersebut diambil dari nama gadis ibunya. Selain ingin menampilkan sosok yang berbeda, Katy mengganti nama belakangnya agar tidak bernama sama dengan aktris Kate Hudson.

Perjuangan Katy sebagai penyanyi masihlah panjang dan berliku. Ketika anak muda seusianya masih asyik bersenang-senang, Katy harus meninggalkan kampung halamannya ke Los Angeles untuk bekerja keras mewujudkan impiannya. Suatu hari, seorang penyanyi bernama Glen Ballard dari label Island Def Jam Music Group mengajak Katy berkolaborasi di album barunya. Album tersebut seharusnya beredar tahun 2005. Namun, tanpa alasan yang jelas pihak label rekaman batal merilis album tersebut.

Kegagalannya itu tak membuat Katy patah semangat. Dia pun memposting beberapa single kolaborasi dengan Glen seperti "Box", "Diamonds" dan "Long Shot" di halaman MySpace miliknya. Nama Katy baru mulai dikenal ketika salah satu single duetnya dengan Glen, "Simple", berhasil masuk dalam album soundtrack film remaja "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants". Di sela-sela perjalanan karirnya, Katy sempat menjajal kemampuan sebagai bintang video musik beberapa band dan grup terkenal seperti video musik single P.O.D., "Goodbye for Now", dan video musik single grup hip hop Gym Class Heroes, "Cupid's Chokehold".

Kerja keras Katy ternyata tak sia-sia, tahun 2007 dia berhasil menandatangani kontrak dengan label rekaman Capitol Music. Setahun kemudian, Katy merilis album pertamanya sebagai penyanyi pop, "One of the Boys" (2008). Keberuntungan Katy tak berhenti sampai disitu. Namanya semakin melejit saat dua single pamungkas dari album pertamanya itu, "I Kissed a Girl" dan "Hot N Cold" berhasil meraih nominasi Grammy untuk kategori Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. Single "I Kissed a Girl" bahkan terpilih sebagai single pop terfavorit lewat ajang penghargaan yang tayang di Stasiun TV CBS, People's Choice Awards 2009.

Tahun 2010, Katy telah merampungkan album terbarunya "Teenage Dream". Rencananya album tersebut akan dirilis pada 24 Agustus nanti. Terkait album tersebut, Katy menjagokan "California Gurls" sebagai single andalan. Menurut Katy, single tersebut merupakan pembuktian janji Katy untuk membuat single yang mengangkat potensi kota asalnya California. Sebelumnya, Katy mengungkapkan kalau dia ingin membuat single tandingan bagi single Jay-Z dan Alicia Keys, "Empire State of Mind". Dalam single "California Gurls", Katy membawakan lagunya bersama rapper Snoop Dogg. Ini merupakan kerjasama pertama mereka. Untuk irama musiknya, Katy mengusung aliran house musik dan terinspirasi dari karya-karya musisi senior Prince. Sementara penggarapan single dan aransemen musiknya dipercayakan pada duo produser, Max Martin dan Dr Luke, yang juga pernah memproduseri single hits Katy, "I Kissed a Girl".

Untuk video musik single pamungkas "California Gurls", Katy yang selalu kreatif menampilkan sebuah negeri bernuansa permen berwarna-warni. Dalam video musik itu, Katy memerankan karakter putri di negeri Candyfornia yang mencoba menyelamatkan para gadis dari cengkeraman penguasa jahat yang diperankan Snoop. Saat beraksi, Snoop mencoba menggagalkan usaha penyelamatan itu melalui papan permainan yang digunakan Snoop sebagai alat pengendali kehidupan di Candyfornia. Selain aksi petualangan Katy dan para gadis, video musik arahan sutradara Mathew Cullen tersebut juga tak lupa menampilkan ciri khas Katy yang selalu berpenampilan seksi dengan memperlihatkan sosoknya yang mengenakan bikini berbentuk cupcake. Katy bahkan berani tampil telanjang sambil berbaring diantara awan-awan merah muda. Seiring dengan kesuksesannya sebagai penyanyi, Katy pun mulai berambisi menjajal kemampuan akting. Rencananya, Katy akan unjuk kebolehan sebagai pengisi suara karakter Smurfette di film yang akan dirilis pada 2011 mendatang, "The Smurfs".

Hampir mirip dengan perjalanan karirnya, kehidupan pribadi Katy juga sarat dengan cerita. Penyanyi berusia 25 tahun tersebut pernah menjalin kasih dengan personil grup hip hop Gym Class Heroes, Travis McCoy, pada tahun 2008. Mereka mulai dekat sejak Katy muncul di video musik single "Cupid's Chokehold" dan tampil bersama di Warped Tour. Ironisnya, hubungan yang berjalan beberapa bulan itu akhirnya kandas pada Desember 2008 karena perbedaan visi di antara mereka. Tak butuh waktu lama bagi si seksi Katy untuk mendapatkan pujaan hati. Katy kemudian menjalin kasih dengan Russell Brand pada September 2009 lalu setelah mereka bertemu di acara MTV Video Music Awards. Tiga bulan kemudian, pasangan yang dikenal unik dan kompak ini bertunangan saat mereka berlibur di India. Kala itu, Russell melamar Katy ketika mengendarai seekor gajah India di malam Tahun Baru.

Hubungan asmara yang terbilang singkat ini berlanjut ke jenjang yang lebih serius saat Katy dan Russell mengumumkan pernikahan mereka, 23 Oktober 2010. Mereka menggelar upacara pernikahannya di resort Aman-i-Khas di Rajasthan dengan adat tradisional India yang dipadukan unsur agama Kristen. Upacara pernikahan dipimpin pendeta yang merupakan teman orang tua Katy.

"Russell Brand dan Katy Perry dengan sangat gembira mengumumkan bahwa mereka resmi menjadi Tuan dan Nyonya Brand pada Sabtu 23 Oktober," ungkap jubir Katy. "Upacara pernikahan yang digelar secara spiritual dan sangat privat ini dihadiri keluarga dan teman dekat pasangan dan dipimpin pendeta sekaligus teman keluarga mempelai."

Dalam upacara pernikahan itu, pasangan Katy dan Russell mengenakan pakaian adat India. Saat itu Katy mengenakan gaun rancangan Elie Saab warna putih keabu-abuan yang dihiasi dengan lengan berenda.
