Singer-songwriter Katy Perry has gone from internet music sensation to bona fide international star in just two years. Her multi-platinum debut album, 'One of the Boys,' generated four hit singles: "I Kissed A Girl," "Hot N Cold," "Thinking Of You" and "Waking Up In Vegas."
This August, the Grammy-nominated artist will release her next album, 'Teenage Dream,' which features "California Gurls", the fastest-rising single to Top 10 radio in more than four years.
