"When Katy Perry was a fourth grader, her teacher asked the class to make a 'vision board' - a collage of images cut out from magazines that represents the dreams and aspirations you hope to manifest in life." -http://www.katyperry.com/bio/

"The year was 1993 and Selena had just won a Grammy Award, so nine-year old Katy chose a photo of the young Latin pop singer holding her golden statuette."-http://www.katyperry.com/bio/

"Fifteen years later, Perry has been nominated for her first Grammy Award in the Best Female Pop Vocal Performance category for her ubiquitous No. 1 single, I Kissed a Girl, from her platinum Top 10 album One of the Boys, and has been chosen as this year's My GRAMMY Moment artist."-http://www.katyperry.com/bio/

"Current sales check in at over 2 million albums and more than 13 million tracks, singles and mobile product globally."-http://www.katyperry.com/bio/

"I found my vision board when I moved apartments recently, says Perry, now 24. I knew where I wanted to be even as a young kid. I just didn't know that if I put one foot in front of the other, I would actually get there someday."-http://www.katyperry.com/bio/

"After only a mere four weeks, Katy's "California Gurls" (featuring Snoop Dogg) is #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 Chart becoming the fastest rising single for Capitol Records in 40 years."-http://www.katyperry.com/news/
