Publisher's Synopsis
Perry rose to fame in 2008 with the release her second album, a pop rock record titled One of the Boys, and its singles "I Kissed a Girl" and "Hot n Cold." The former track also sparked controversy for its sapphic themes. Her third album, Teenage Dream (2010), ventured into disco, and contained the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping singles "California Gurls," "Teenage Dream," "Firework," "E.T.," and "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" as well as the number-three single "The One That Got Away." The album became the first by a female artist to produce five number-one songs in the U.S., and the second overall after Michael Jackson's album Bad.
