Girl Power

Glittering pop starlet Katy Perry makes her Atlantic City debut July 30 at the Borgata. Perry is best known for her catchy breakout song “I Kissed A Girl,” which was released as a single in 2008 and spent seven weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard charts, selling over 6 million tracks. The song wound up on Perry’s second album, One of the Boys, which went platinum and garnered the big-eyed chanteuse a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.

With her pin-up good looks and her penchant for colorful outfits, Perry has a flamboyant quality that elevates her above the usual pop diva. Her comedic side is evident on her follow-up singles, “Hot N Cold,” and “Waking Up In Vegas”—the videos for each song are immensely popular on MTV and YouTube. But Perry also knows her way around an emotional ballad, as evident on the chart-climbing “Thinking of You.”

Now headlining her first international tour, Perry’s live shows are a dazzling affair, with choreography and costume changes.
