Billboard Queen Katy Perry opens up on religious upbringing



Katy Perry sang about kissing girls, and now she's talking tongues: In the new issue of Rolling Stone, Perry reveals that her Christian minister parents spoke in tongues when she was growing up.

The California girl, who has "Jesus" tattooed on her left wrist, tells the magazine, "Speaking in tongues is as normal to me as 'Pass the salt..' It's a secret, direct prayer language to God." Perry, 25, adds that her dad usually speaks in tongues while her mom plays interpreter. "That's their gift," she explains.


Speaking of gifts, Perry reportedly bought fiance Russell Brand a $200,000 ticket to outer space aboard the Virgin Galactic for his 35th birthday.

But if Perry feels lucky to have found love with the British comic, she'll never admit it. In the Perry household, she explains, "I wasn't able to say I was lucky because my mother would rather us say that we were blessed, and she also didn't like that lucky sounded like Lucifer."

In fact, the quirky brunette reveals, "I wasn't allowed to eat Lucky Charms, but I think that was the sugar. I think my mom lied to me about that one."

The new issue of Rolling Stone hits newsstands on Friday.

"I wasn't able to say I was lucky because my mother would rather us say that we were blessed, and she also didn't like that lucky sounded like Lucifer."
HAHAHA WHAT

she annoys me so fucking much.
her whole personality and shtick is fucking annoying.
[info]ambeaux 2nd-Aug-2010 09:29 pm (UTC)
Yeah, this is where I am at, sadly. I can't get past *her* and into her music at all. It's funny because I thought Jill Souble's 'I Kissed a Girl' was cute and funny but I thought that Katy Perry's was shitty and contrived...like despite the song Jill would probably be willing to sit down and have a burger with some real lesbians but Katy Perry would probably not open her door to any unless they were Ellen.
[info]xbrokenxdollx 2nd-Aug-2010 10:40 pm (UTC)
also i think jill sobule may have actually kissed a girl and wrote the song after the experience and not used bisexuality to titillate an audience into liking her.
KATY PERRY RAGE
[info]xbrokenxdollx jill sobule's awesome quote2nd-Aug-2010 10:42 pm (UTC)
When Katy Perry's song came out I started getting tons of inquiries about what I thought. Some folks (and protective friends) were angry, and wondered why she took my title and made it into this kind of 'girls gone wild' thing....

As a musician I have always refrained from criticizing another artist. I was, 'Well, good for her.' It did bug me a little bit, however, when she said she came up with the idea for the title in a dream. In truth, she wrote it with a team of professional writers and was signed by the very same guy that signed me in 1995. I have not mentioned that in interviews as I don't want to sound bitter or petty...

Okay, maybe, if I really think about it, there were a few jealous and pissed-off moments. So here goes, for the first time in an interview: Fuck you Katy Perry, you fucking stupid, maybe 'not good for the gays,' title-thieving, haven't heard much else, so not quite sure if you're talented, fucking little slut.

God that felt good.

Judging by the drop in other pop stars' careers and output....when she's 30. You've got six more years to go.
