Peep a racy Katy Perry on the cover the of Vanity Fair‘s June 2011 issue.
Ironically, the singer devotes a large portion of her feature to discussing her strict religious upbringing, and how her devout parents react to her antics.
Excerpt after the jump…
Via Vanity Fair:
“I didn’t have a childhood,” she says, adding that her mother never read her any books except the Bible, and that she wasn’t allowed to say “deviled eggs” or “Dirt Devil.” Perry wasn’t even allowed to listen to secular music and relied on friends to sneak her CDs. “Growing up, seeing Planned Parenthood, it was considered like the abortion clinic,” she tells Robinson. “I was always scared I was going to get bombed when I was there…. I didn’t know it was more than that, that it was for women and their needs. I didn’t have insurance, so I went there and I learned about birth control.”
“I think sometimes when children grow up, their parents grow up,” Perry says of her evangelical-minister parents. “Mine grew up with me. We coexist. I don’t try to change them anymore, and I don’t think they try to change me. We agree to disagree. They’re excited about [my success]. They’re happy that things are going well for their three children and that they’re not on drugs. Or in prison.” Perry’s mother confirms that she is proud of her daughter’s success, telling Robinson, “The Lord told us when I was pregnant with her that she would do this.”

EPICNESS!!!!!
this is one of the most beautiful artist out there…
she is amazing, talented, and having great persona.
I love that cover.
she is amazing..smarter, classier than so much better than Lady Gaga.
Reminding me of Liz Taylor here
She looks beautiful.
SMH These dumb b****** always have to bring up Gaga’s name.
Ummmm is that why “Naked Perry” is forever disrobing all over town? And why she married that boney madman Brand…ewwww?
I like Katy, I admire for her songwriting skills, but I don’t think she has that “umph” to be around 20 years from now…She doesn’t push her music to create boundaries like Gaga does.
Anyways, looking forwad to her next album. It may just make me a fan of hers, lol.
I love her better than Lady Gaga the biggest copycat of 21st century ! 🙁
*****She isnt trying hard like Lady BlaBlahBluek !****
@JJFAN1814
I like her music and the fact that she writes her own songs, but I can’t get passed that voice. If she had a good voice I would be a fan of hers.
I’m starting to love Katy! She’s too cute and she looks great on the cover 😀
E.T still slaying hard!
Last Friday Night (TGIF) is coming…another #1? 😀
seems like a cool article. i should be receiving my issue soon.
Breast reduction needed. +100. B**** gets those cantaloupes down!!!
WHY IS IT THAT REALLY PRETTY GIRLS LIKE RIHANNA ,KATY PERRY ,BRITNEY SPEARS ,CHERYL COLE are slaying it doesnt include gaga LOL
@Wild Child
Her voice is ok. It’s not versatile though but it’s a good pop voice.
She looks good…
@The Truth Hurts
Sorry booboo that Gaga doesn’t flaunt her looks to go with her music. Music isn’t about beauty last time I checked and there are various music videos (Poker Face, Bad Romance, Just Dance) that shows that Gaga is pretty.
& wtf is Cheryl Cole slaying?? I don’t even know who the f*** she is. lmao. I guess she’s irrelevant in America.
GORGEOUS !!!
@THE TRUTH HURTS
You dumb c***. It is truly sad that some people will only become a fan of someone if they are attractive. We live in a f***** world. This post isn’t even about Gaga. You must really be threatened by her.
Gaga’s raw talent>>>>>>>>>>>all of the people that you named
LMAOOOO
THIS B**** IS WACKKKKKKKK
WITH HER S**
SHUT THE F*** UP!!!!!!!
KATY HARRY IS A DISGRACE AND NEEDS TO GIVE IT UP
CAUSE
GODDESS GODGA IS #WINNIN!!!!!!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAH
@ THE SAME PERSON USING ALL THEM USER NAMES LMAO FAIL!!!!!
@PERRY
NOBODY CHECKING FOR YOUR FAV!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS B**** IS SO TYPICAL
LMAOOOO
LIKE BORINGGGG
YAWNNNNSSSSSSSSSSSS
She. Looks. Great!
I like her personality, voice and some of her songs. I do think that she’s been turned into more of a pop artist when she started as an acoustic/rock artist. That’s a little unfortunate because it makes her “of the moment”. The songs may go #1, but they are sticking in people’s memory. It’s more valuable to have one song that smashes to #1 and sounds unique so people remember you as creative than a slew of #1 hits people will forget tomorrow.
I’d love to see her switch gears back to more of a rock sound. Interested in how long she’ll be around after she’s rode this wave.
The b**** is boneheaded as they get, but I think she should play Wonder Woman in the upcoming movie, she has the eyes, hair, gigantic tits…how tall is she?
her parents obviously didn’t rub off on her…with those soft p*** videos…Uggs Giving Away Stuff After PETA called them out.. http://goo.gl/OeFMB to Get Consumers to Support them….haha got 2 pair!

Boring! Why is sam postin about that nobody. Tgj needs to get everythin together. Nobody likes her. I mean theres nothin to talk about. She has no presence. U just dont notice her. She could die today nobody would care. NEXT
I like this cover she look good
But no shade katy perry Will not last long in the game her and kesha will be gone in the next 5 years! only gaga and rihanna will remain to compete with the new bunch of pop divas to come. but I like her personality and some of her songs. but if she Upgraded herself…ahh who am I kidding. *leaves*

@ITSVERYPERRY
I watched her unplugged last year and I couldn’t take her voice. There are certain songs that I like her voice on like Lost , Hot N Cold, One of the Boys, and I Kissed a Girl. She sounds horrible on Firework and Teenage Dream. The majority of the time she just sounds awful in my opinion.
SHE SOLD HER SOUL TO DEVIL TO HAVE A COUPLE OF HITS HERE AND THERE…WHAT SHE GONNA DO WHEN GOD COMES BACK TO THIS EARTH FOR HIS 2ND COMING? LISTEN TO UR PARENTS KATY AND STOP DOING THE DEVIL’S MUSIC
1.8 MILLION IS A FLOP

I agree Illuminati
Do you have to rely on your country to give you something all
the time, think out of the box and improvise on how you would earn more than what employment
can offer, CNBC investing may help. *Run or move the pearl gently along the sharp edge
of front teeth. Yes, this is the way of the world, but it doesn’t have to be your
world.
What’s up to all, how is all, I think every one is getting more from this site, and your views are nice for new people.
