Katy Perry's Mum To Write a Book on 'Her Own Life'

Katy Perry's preacher mother, Mary Perry Hudson, is shopping a book about how her pop-star daughter has impacted her Christian ministry, and admits that while she's proud of Katy, she "disagrees with a lot of choices she makes in her career."

 
  

Hudson shopped the proposal, seen by Page Six, to New York's literary agents hoping to land a publishing deal. "This memoir is her story, in her own words. Mary and Keith Hudson have been Christian Evangelists long before the world every heard of Katy Perry," the proposal begins.
 

Following her debut single, "Ur So Gay," the raunchy singer's career took off with her smash hit "I Kissed a Girl." She flaunted bust-bearing outfits and sexy bad-boy husband Russell Brand while comparing her upbringing to "Jesus Camp" and recalling speaking in tongues and channeling messages from God. Perry admitted kissing girls before marrying confessed sex-addict Brand.
 

Perry told Rolling Stone last year, "Speaking in tongues is as normal to me as 'Pass the salt' . . . It's a secret, direct prayer language to God. My dad speaks in tongues and my mom interprets it . . . I wasn't ever able to say I was lucky because my mother would rather us say that we were blessed. Deviled eggs were called 'angeled' eggs."
 

Her mother's proposal states: "Amid a torrent of negative reports from tabloid magazines and entertainment shows, Mary Hudson wants to tell 'her story' and dispel a lot of rumors. Katy's success has impacted her ministry in both negative and positive ways.
 

"She loves her daughter very much and is very proud of her accomplishments, but disagrees with a lot of choices she makes in her career. This memoir is to set the record straight. It is not Christian proselytizing or a Katy Perry tell-all. It is the story of Mary Perry Hudson."
 

Co-writer T.L. Gray told us, "We currently have interest from a couple of different agencies, but have not signed with anyone . . . Mary also just completed a Christian book called 'Joyful Mother' that will be released soon from Destiny Image . . . we've been playing around with a few different titles." A rep for Perry didn't get back to us.

I'd be interested. Especially from the Evangelist faith, I'd like to see how Katy's family deals with it and how they keep the happy family. It still sounds like Katy still tries to be connected with her faith, but perhaps not to the extent she was growing up.

Working at the Episcopal Church over the summer, a lot of members are Roman Catholic or Evangelist "refugees", because those branches are so rigorous compared to ours.

/can't wait!

LMAO, this is going to be good.

Ugh, really? That's awkward. It's so weird when celebs' parents kinda pop in and try to get fame of their own. And it's so annoying the way Katy tries to be ~holier than thou while at the same time trying to be too sexy. Russell can do better, I think.

Deviled eggs were called 'angeled' eggs."
Oh lawd, that sounds like a few people in my family. And I'm just sitting there like ">_________< REALLY?"

lmao reminds of some people I've seen that instead of calling their kids "omg they are such little demons! they break every toy in 2 days" they say

"omg they are so blessed! they brea every toy"

You know they're dying to bash the kids, but then say they're blessed. LOL

No one wants to read about your very untalented daughter or your homophobic dated views.

This.
It's one thing to hate gays, it's completely another to disagree with it because of your faith.

Mrs. Hudson, what are your views on Russell Brand?
queenofissues 16th-Mar-2011 03:22 pm (UTC)
I love the picture, how do you make it look like that?

I'm tired of all the memoirs. Not just celebrities but pretty much ask anyone and they say I'm writing a book. You aren't that interesting, no one cares!
