Katy Perry’s willful determination, not to mention her songwriting, vocal talent and larger-than-life charisma, have led to an astonishing year for the raven-haired pop starlet. Her platinum Top 10 debut album, One of the Boys, has sold over 2 million copies globally and spawned smash hits ‘I Kissed a Girl’ and ‘Hot and Cold.’ The video for the latter was the #2 most-viewed premiere of all time on MySpace. She electrified our audience last year as host and performer at the 2008 EMAs and even picked up an award for Best New Act.
