subject: Katy Perry Tickets - On Top Of The Charts [print this page] Katy Perry's "California Gurls" became one of the summer's hottest radio singles. Billboard has the numbers to back it up. The song stayed planted on the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for the majority of the summer months and, as MTV.com notes, "With its lyrics about wearing bikinis and Daisy Dukes, it made for pitch-perfect driving and lounging music." Although Perry had some pretty tough competition from Lady Gaga and later from Eminem with his ode to domestic violence ballad titled "Love the Way You Lie," the girly-girl pop star managed to hold her own, and in all respects, it seems "California Gurls" was the song of summer 2010.
Now that Ms. Perry has seen a tremendous amount of success in the music industry, she has turned her gaze to other realms, most specifically a starring role in her own reality television show. According to monstersandcritics.com, the singer has apparently caught the eye of network executives after her recent stint on "The X Factor" and there is talk about Perry becoming a regular on the small screen. While we wait for her big television debut, why not purchase Katy Perry tickets today from StubHub and see her perform "California Gurls" live on stage?
Perry has managed to avoid one of the biggest problems many new music artists face: the sophomore slump. After her debut album became a surprise hit thanks to songs like "I Kissed a Girl," "Hot N Cold" and "Waking Up in Vegas," fans wondered if she could duplicate her success the second time around. It turned out that the worry was of little concern.
An article on MTV.com notes that Teenage Dream already has ratcheted up two huge hit singles with "California Gurls" and "Teenage Dream," and looks to be on its way to landing on top of the Billboard albums chart with relative ease. Some people have pointed to her outgoing personality and massive online following of fans as a reason she avoided the dreaded "slump." Whatever it is, there is no doubt that Perry is on a whirlwind trip to the top of the charts and she's certainly having no trouble achieving her goals.
Initially Perry started her music career as a Christian artist, but switched over the pop genre once she realized she could gain more exposure. Her first full-length album, One of the Boys, sailed easily to the top of the charts and she promoted the effort with continuous touring, while also formulating material for her second album, Teenage Dream. The album dropped in August, preceded by the hugely successful "California Gurls," with special guest collaborator Snoop Dogg.
These days Perry is living the high life, both in her public and personal life (she recently became engaged to comedian Russell Brand). For her third album, it's likely that fans will not worry about any sort of slump, because Katy has proved herself as one of the hottest pop stars in the industry. See her perform her catchy tunes live on stage by purchasing a pair of Katy Perry tickets today!
