Katy Perry's first tour as an artist in 2001. I was very fortunate to meet and hangout with this Super Nova of a talent in the beginning of her career. At the time I was on a retainer with Pamplin Entertainment and worked on BibleMan staring Willie Aames. I also shot EPK’s (electronic press kits) for all their musical talent. Red Hill Records had just signed Katy and this was a small venue in Portland Oregon.

This is true, actually. By the time she actually starting making a record and touring, she was already wanting to step off the gospel train. it wasn't where her heart was. I'm sure she loved touring and meeting people, but she wanted to write secular music. At least according to an interview with one of her team/label execs from that time.

She really is one of the most talented artists of the current pop industry, no matter how people try to discredit her.
