Katy Perry: Childhood Nightmare to Teenage Dream | Deep Dive

[@rhonnichan]

Being a teen during the Teenage Dream era was EVERYTHING

[@diabloakland]

It really was

[@adreena456]

I loved her tour documentary, the part where Russell breaks up with her and she still goes on stage still makes me cry. Love her!

[@hallievanoutryve3109]

Breaking up a marriage over text? What a pathetic, immature way to do that. Russell Brand is awful for that, snd for the way he talked about her as vapid and vacuous (indirect, but still, not cool)

[@neverlandnights]

​@@hallievanoutryve3109 the timing of it is truely despicable too. He couldn't wait until after the show ?

[@carissaa8411]

@@neverlandnights people like that are selfish and don’t care about anyone else’s thoughts or feelings. He lacks emotional maturity.

[@tawnyew]

I can't watch someone crying and especially know why and not start to imagine how they feel then tear up myself.

[@arturoDelgado-d3p]

Yall forgot to mention the one that got away, Part of Me and Wide Awake, breaking the record for most number ones in an album era.

[@backdoorsluts_9]

The one that got away was my shiiiiiit

[@KaylaJPaige]

I don't think the one that got away reached #1 on billboard hot 100. Part of Me and Wide Awake were post-releases, in an add-on to the album. If artists could just tack on hits later to break records then all artists would do this.

[@arturoDelgado-d3p]

@@KaylaJPaige a week before part of me would chart billboard changed the rules to protect MJs record. Prior artists like Rihanna reissued an album and billboard counted the extended release as one. Teenage Dream had a deluxe with 3 add ons. Completely different from a EP like Gaga’s the fame monster or Kesha’s animal. But what I said still holds true, “ most number ones in an album era.” Emphasis on era. Billboard counts Teenage Dream as an album with the most numbers ones with a reissue. artists have reissued their albums many times before katy and yet they can’t add on that many hits like she did. I don’t think every artists would have been capable as you said.

Christians are no different than anyone else. Being a bad person is universal, but that doesn't mean the message of Christianity is bad...just my opinion. People forget this. The common traits in these Hollywood parents: Spears, Simpson, Carter, Culkin (and more) is greed, narcissism, entitlement and laziness, oh, and bad parenting....obviously.

I noticed that too lol grifters

[@shepherdsatellites]

Russell is so evil for doing it right before her show, he knew what he was doing

[@carissaa8411]

This documentary seems pretty accurate, but I’m not sure about that part. I vaguely remember Katy saying the text was on New Year’s Eve. Unless the show was NYE. It was so long ago, I don’t remember.

[@mikhailico]

@@carissaa8411 She literally showed it on her own docu-film, Part of Me, that Russell broke up/asked for a divorce through a text right before a performance for her tour, California Dreams.

[@carissaa8411]

@@mikhailico I’ve seen that movie about 90 billion times. It was never shown in that scene that it was a text from him on that specific day. No one knew exactly why she was crying. She was upset for a few different reasons. Katy said years ago that the text came through on New Year’s Eve. So unless that show was on New Year’s Eve, it wasn’t the divorce text.

[@Eli0223]

@@mikhailicoI agree with you, I remember it being the day of the concert. The other person is remembering wrong, they publicly broke up at the end of December but not on New Year’s Eve. It was like a day or Two before, Russell should have waited cause you’re not in the same room rn anyways. So why be urgent that you have to do it right before her concert.

[@cherachapin3826]

Just...who breaks up over a text anyway? That alone is cold enough. But to add insult to injury, he had to do it right before her concert.

[@AndyyWithAY]

Dark hair looks so perfect on her. I can't believe she naturally has light hair. Her short blonde do didn't suit her at all IMO when she had that a few years.

[@gianfranco_maldetto_92]

She does not naturally have light hair. Even at a young age, her blonde hair was dark blonde. She was a brunette by her teenage years.

[@Kellie_FROST]

Wow that’s crazy…

[@naledi0017]

Her and Nicki Minaj 😭

[@timothy2935]

It's because she decided to go back on her promise. When she sold her soul to the 'devil" she su*ked and fu*ked her way to the top of the charts BUT she stopped before she got the big showbiz awards. Like Grammy , Emmy ect. I'm speaking the truth unfortunately. There's a reason why she tried for SO LONG and was chewed up and spit out. She had all the talent in the world and she could pull it off.. BUT Thankfully she OPENED HER EYES THAT WERE STILL SO WIDE SHUT.❤❤ LOVE HER

[@KaitlynCharlene]

When I was 16 I went to stay somewhere called Mercy Ministries (now known as Mercy Multiplied) in Nashville, TN. While there, Katy Perry’s parents were guest speakers one day and personally prophesied over me. Then at the end of everything they told us all to pray for Katy lol

[@DeepDiveProductions]

Whoaaa that is wild.

[@DelusionDispeller]

Did their prophecy come to pass?

[@carijean37]

That's so wild. I guess they're all over the south. Her brother lived out here in Oklahoma (staying with his aunt or something.) I partied with him quite a few times back in the day. Slept with him as well but nothing serious just a few nights of whatever. Honestly we all thought he was lying about being Katy Perry's brother until I saw him on Katy's E! true Hollywood story thing. Lol. I was flabbergasted. Just like "oh... Huh, guess that guy I slept with a couple times and partied with for awhile actually was Katy Perry's brother..." lol. Wasn't anything wild by any means. One of David's friends did go crazy on me because I slept with David and apparently said friend was rolling his balls off and without even talking to me at all had decided I was his? People can be weird sometimes. So we just slipped out and he drove me home. Anyways. From what David told us (I don't remember a lot because we thought he was lying so it was something we shrugged off) her family is super bible bangers and a little crazy. For Oklahoma that's the norm though. At least it used to be. SLIGHTLY more diversity now. (Editing to say I just started watching and ofc they were all over the south they're traveling preachers basically haha)

[@gnolalegna6432]

Dude!!! Mercy ministries is Lue Taylor’s little cult church!

You connected the dots. I was about to research her parents church after listening to this because from the details given about her upbringing, it sounded like the family was into cult like behavior. @@gnolalegna6432

I’m sorry that part with Elmo was hilarious. Elmo was like idgaf we were singing

Before watching these, I usually know absolutely nothing about the artist, and after watching these, I always gain so much more respect for the artist. Deep Dives are my absolute favourite things to watch, they get the artists’ full story of their rise to fame and allow for so much more understanding of how the artist got there.

Katy Perry made my preteen to early teen years so lit. Lowkey made me like pop tbh. She was THAT girl I swear. I never knew her come up was like this. It make sense why she was always so colorful & lighthearted & happy

[@tessadiggety]

I like to think Russel brand was sitting there watching her show from his couch waiting for her to cancel and break down but instead she came out and served, ate, left no crumbs and bussed the entire table

[@klkay206]

If things did unfold like that it was probably a test: our marriage, or your career. It's a crappy way to break up, Russell has said in the past he was fed up with the lifestyle and having an absentee marriage. Usually marriages like theirs fail.

[@jmac356]

I was such a huge Katy fan when I was like 7. I used to watch the part of me movie HUNDREDS of times because I was so fascinated by her and her style. I completely forgot what the part of me movie talked about and showed but it still holds a special place in my heart.

[@DeepDiveProductions]

Me toooo! I bought the movie where it still lives in my iTunes🩷🩷🩷

[@rockygirl9533]

I kissed a girl was the only song by Katy my mother refused to let me listen to growing up. I wasn’t even allowed to sing the song and if she caught me singing it or listening to it she would tell me off. But funny enough my mom’s favorite song is California Gurls and played it all the time when I was younger. 😂

[@NocturnalWolf83]

😂 California Gurls wasn't not kid friendly either 😂 Irony.

[@CharlesH-t9r]

I remember when I first heard that and I thought it was very cool I never understood the hatred , if you listen to the lyrics it's actually a very sweet song about her realizing she's bisexual

[@ciarakristos111]

And, yet, 'California Gurls' is just as risque and sexualised as 'I Kissed A Girl'. 🤔One of the lyrics is "We'll melt your popsicle" (sexual innuendo and double entendre) and, during Snoop Dogg's rap, Katy makes a stereotypical sex voice noise.

[@raquelgreer0417]

The industry is a blessing and curse at the same time. I am in my 30's, so I grew up in my teens and early 20's on these types of artists. I love them dearly and still do- but watching these stories makes be feel sad about all the controversy and exploitation that they've been through

[@Kim-vt8yr]

It just shows that confidence really is everything! Never give up on your dreams and just back yourself all the time! People say that a lot of these celebs have big egos but they had to be confident to get where they are! Katy Perry was literally my childhood! I kissed a girl was one of my bisexual awakening songs 😂😂 I felt like I related to her tomboy image as I was a big tomboy when I was younger!

[@msroxannablack]

Her childhood sounded so sad. Being raised in the Church can be absolute hell.

[@morticiagomez6166]

These are not Christian homes, these are Cults …. There is a big difference. The spirit that these Pentecostals summon to make people fall over and speak gibberish is NOT a Christian thing. It is the spirit of kundalini that the hippies who took LSD used to summon and it is a Hindu practice. All this nonsense she says that she didn’t know who Michael Jackson was growing up is a blatant Lie. Katy travelled around USA with her parents and went to normal schools. You can see she is talking blatant lies to make herself look like she was so oppressed. Katy is a Satanist herself who has admitted as much. They are not against Lying.

[@idanceforthestars]

😂😂😂

[@morticiagomez6166]

You call yourself 666 and you reckon that being raised in the church is “Hell”?? 😂😂🙈…. I Think if you lead Katy Perry’s’ lifestyle and sell your soul to Satan and call yourself 666 , you are living in Hell…? Katy’s parents run a Cult. They have Nought to do with the Jesus of the Gospel. You should read the gospel for yourself.

[@arturoDelgado-d3p]

Maybe that’s why she’s so over-saturated with fun, color, happy things/themes ? 🥹

[@StellaAdler_]

“ in the Church” ? Only specific churches. In america predominately - from the cult like, to Catholic. Here in Europe, thankfully we don’t have such issues, apart from the countries that are Catholic & not Christian Orthodox (like Greece,all of central and eastern europe, some countries in africa and middle east too)

[@Kylelongwest]

I got emotional just watching this, she has come so far in life, getting knocked down again and again, but she has never given up.

[@Rey_Palpatine]

Not surprising at all how many people end up walking away from religion, tbh. A decent number of parents just use it as a tool to scare and control their kids in ways that screw them up psychologically. Said kids end up with a ton of negative memories and feelings surrounding the topic of religion as a whole. The second they break free from their parents, they can try to distance themselves as far as they can from the things that stressed them out and/or restricted them during their childhood. I'm speaking from experience, I've gone through that struggle

[@EquineDreams3]

Surr, but distancing yourself and doing everything the opposite of your parents means you are still under their control because you arentaking choices on your own, but in rebellion to your parents. Find your own way between the two to live honestly.

[@Rey_Palpatine]

@@EquineDreams3 Recognizing that religion itself isn't inherently bad and mentally separating it from the bad individual followers of said religion would probably be the healthiest outcome, yeah. For some people, it can be difficult to get there, tho.

I didn’t like her at first being raised strictly Christian & thinking I kissed a girl was awful lol. Once I saw her documentary I became obsessed bc I thought omg we are so much alike. When you grow up in that bubble there’s this weird guilt that sticks with you. I’m still close with my parents & I’ve never been as brave as Katy to totally set free my other side, just keep it from my parents lol, most sad bc I just turned 40 & it’s a big thing I’m having to reconcile with in therapy bc I feel like 2 diff people. I wish I had moved away but after having kids young I stayed close to the fam in ALABAMA. Y’all can’t imagine the hell when I’ve always felt like a wild child California girl at heart. This video meant a lot to me today bc I had always felt destined for something big but a bad marriage derailed my life & im currently at my rock bottom. Hearing Katy speaking about her car being impounded & having nothing but still fighting forward & not giving up re lit q candle in me this morning, so your top tier videos not only entertain us, sometimes they lift people up who are feeling a true rock bottom ❤

I was like well that’s good, considering she’s never done anything to you to warrant hatred toward her. This is why we shouldn’t judge people we know nothing about.

Katy’s sister: “we didn’t even know who Michael Jackson was” Katy, later: “we all grew up with Madonna posters” hmm🤔 Just somethin that gave me pause 😅

[@atinyworldofdimples9865]

I think she meant girls in general grew up with Madonna posters

[@MPPG663]

Yeah. the fact that they were trying hard to make that "we couldn't have Lucky Charms" a category of abus3 is crazy, lol. Y'all know good and well that you weren't missing out.

[@atinyworldofdimples9865]

@@MPPG663 I think their saying their life was different in a way from other kids, they were very sheltered from everything and couldn’t embrace their true self in a way unless their parents approved and that kind of is physiological abuse to an extent, forcing your kids to be what you want not allowing them to figure out themselves, although in my opinion lucky charms are filled with bad things so good on their part but it’s the other aspects that I would consider wrong to do to your kid. Idk that’s just my opinion.

[@MPPG663]

@@atinyworldofdimples9865 Parents are expected to parent. What that looks like is going to be different from one house to the next, but at the end of the day, it's the *responsibility* of parents to decide what is or is not acceptable... for their children. You commend the parents for restricting them from a cereal you know is harmful, but because you disagree with everything else, they're wrong (music)?...I don't think you hear yourself. The overuse and exaggeration of what abus3 is in this day and age is frankly, disgusting. These children were not "abus3ed".

She said girls grew up with Madonna posters, not herself

“Thinking of you” is a masterpiece.

I have a sentual eyes and sometimes I need to cry (to wash eyes). I just go to youtube and push "The one that gone away" and cry my eyes away, like a shower. What a great song! 😢❤

[@banudi2]

Wow that gave me a whole new level of respect for Katy. You go girl!!

[@ciaragoering]

[@marcoleocata9398]

Could you do a Deep Dive about Kesha's career?

[@saintnmills]

[@ashleenanikitagroenewald8409]

When you do another deep dive, do one on Kat DeLuna. She was also a well known singer in the early 2000s

[@Indomita506]

Yes

[@breesechick]

Dad is more supportive than mom.

[@morticiagomez6166]

Neither of those parents are Christian’s. They’re out to make money and fame thru their Cult.

[@joeyyyy]

[@denia1594]
