ABOUT THE BOOK She's quirky, she's talented, she's Katy Perry! Katy Perry has dominated the pop music scene since 2008 with hit after hit from her albums, One of the Boys (2008) and Teenage Dream (2010). Katy Perry had the third highest grossing tour and was the most played artist on the radio for 2011. With her glowing white skin, dark wavy hair and bright blue eyes, it's no wonder that the world has fallen under this musical Snow White's spell. Katy Perry hasn't always been riding high on the waves of success. In fact, she was dropped multiple times by record labels before finally finding the perfect match. Unlike some pop acts, Perry is not content to be a cog in someone else's machine. Katy is actively involved in the artistic process of her music and shows, from songwriting to conceptualizing her worldwide tours. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK By the time Katy was fifteen years old, she had caught the attention of people in Nashville, Tennessee. Interested labels flew her out to Nashville to develop her songwriting skills. Perry eventually signed with a Christian music label, Red Hill. At the age of seventeen, in 2001, Perry released her first album, a collection of gospel songs titled Katy Hudson. The album was ultimately unsuccessful, and Katy was dropped from the Red Hill label. Looking back at that time in her life, Perry says that she says she is a different person now than she was then. As Katy has seen more of the world, her ideas are not as church-driven as they were in the past. In her interview with the Scotsman she says, "When I started out in my gospel music my perspective then was a bit enclosed and very strict, and everything I had in my life at that time was very church-related. I didn't know there was another world that existed beyond that." Following her lackluster results in Nashville, Perry moved to Los Angeles. Katy's next venture in the music industry was at Island Records. When she arrived at the record label she found her Christian background put her at a serious disadvantage. The executives at Island Records wanted to know who she wished to collaborate with, and were rather surprised when she did not know any secular artists. After working with famed songwriter-producer Glen Ballard, though, Katy quickly was schooled in the wide world of secular music. Perry cited Alanis Morisette as a particularly influential artist for her own music. Though she was supposed to release a record in 2005 with Island Records, the project was not completed and she was dropped from the label. Later some of the songs that Katie and Glen Ballard wrote together were picked up by singer Kelly Clarkson for her album All I Ever Wanted... Buy a copy to keep reading!
Download or read book Katy Perry written by Jo Berry and published by Orion. This book was released on 2011-03-31 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lifting the lid on the chart-topping, girl-kissing, trend-setting princess of pop In 2006, Katy Perry was on the brink of packing it all in and giving up - Hollywood had almost got the better of her. Two hit albums later and she practically owns the place. The gorgeous singer, best known for her flirty hit 'I Kissed a Girl', likes to flaunt her feminine side with inch-long eyelashes, maraschino-cherry lips, and playful retro outfits like polka-dotted hot pants and tube dresses, but Katy's path to fame was far bumpier than her glamtastic image lets on. Raised in Santa Barbara, California, she started her musical career in the church, her parents were both born-again Christian pastors. Her first album, released in 2001, was Christian gospel and the rules for her early years were 'no pop, no snacks, no boys'. At 16 she dropped out of high school and made the move to L.A., and her life was forever changed. It took more than eight years of false starts, winning and losing three record contracts, before she scored the million-selling album One of the Boys. But once `Ur So Gay' was declared by Madonna as her song of the year, 'I Kissed a Girl' ignited all that controversy, and Katy met her husband-to-be Russell Brand and so became one half of one of the most exciting and endearing Hollywood couples, Katy Perry was propelled to the top of the Hollywood A list. Jo Berry's insightful and honest biography reveals the incredible story of the life and loves of the artist and performer Katy Perry.

Book Synopsis The Presidents vs. the Press by : Harold Holzer
Download or read book The Presidents vs. the Press written by Harold Holzer and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An award-winning presidential historian offers an authoritative account of American presidents' attacks on our freedom of the press—including a new foreword chronicling the end of the Trump presidency. “The FAKE NEWS media,” Donald Trump has tweeted, “is not my enemy, it is the enemy of the American People!” Has our free press ever faced as great a threat? Perhaps not—but the tension between presidents and journalists is as old as the republic itself. Every president has been convinced of his own honesty and transparency; every reporter who has covered the White House beat has believed with equal fervency that his or her journalistic rigor protects the country from danger. Our first president, George Washington, was also the first to grouse about his treatment in the newspapers, although he kept his complaints private. Subsequent chiefs like John Adams, Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson, and Barack Obama were not so reticent, going so far as to wield executive power to overturn press freedoms, and even to prosecute journalists. Theodore Roosevelt was the first president to actively manage the stable of reporters who followed him, doling out information, steering coverage, and squashing stories that interfered with his agenda. It was a strategy that galvanized TR’s public support, but the lesson was lost on Woodrow Wilson, who never accepted reporters into his inner circle. Franklin Roosevelt transformed media relations forever, holding more than a thousand presidential press conferences and harnessing the new power of radio, at times bypassing the press altogether. John F. Kennedy excelled on television and charmed reporters to hide his personal life, while Richard Nixon was the first to cast the press as a public enemy. From the days of newsprint and pamphlets to the rise of Facebook and Twitter, each president has harnessed the media, whether intentional or not, to imprint his own character on the office. In this remarkable new history, acclaimed scholar Harold Holzer examines the dual rise of the American presidency and the media that shaped it. From Washington to Trump, he chronicles the disputes and distrust between these core institutions that define the United States of America, revealing that the essence of their confrontation is built into the fabric of the nation.
