American Idol Judge Katy Perrys Biggest Scandals & Dramas Explained

Singer/songwriter Katy Perry, who is now a judge on American Idol, has been the subject of many scandals in the past. From the moment she came into fame in 2008 with her hit single “I Kissed a Girl” to her new journey into motherhood, Katy has become a headline for a number of news outlets. However, Katy always manages to keep her head held high by focusing on her career rather than the drama in the tabloids.

Katy joined the judge’s panel on the ABC reality competition series in 2018 alongside Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan. Since she became part of the show, Katy released her album Smile and welcomed her daughter, Daisy, with her fiancé, Orlando Bloom. After becoming a mother, Katy has stayed away from any negative press or drama. However, she has faced controversy in the past, and many of the scandals were quite captivating.

Her Divorce From Russell Brand

Katy and Russell tied the knot in India in 2010 after dating for about a year. After the singer was spotted without her ring in December 2011, rumors of divorce began to swirl. By December 30, Katy filed for divorce. During an interview with Vogue from 2013 (via Los Angele Times), Katy revealed the comedian broke up with her via text message, and they have not spoken since. Russell didn’t want Katy being his “equal” and would often put her down and control her. She suspected he wanted the divorce, so she initiated it before he could. The pair are now on good terms, but aren’t in touch regularly, as Russell is married and Katy is engaged.

Feud With Taylor Swift

The Taylor vs. Katy feud began after three dancers left Taylor’s Red album tour early to work on Katy’s Prism tour back in 2014. Taylor then did an interview where she spoke about a friend who was shady in terms of business, which prompted Katy to tweet the infamous phrase, “Watch out for the Regina George in sheep’s clothing.” However, the two pop stars have since squashed their beef after Katy literally sent Taylor an olive branch on the first night of her Reputation stadium tour.

Assault Allegations

In 2019, Katy was called out for sexual misconduct after two people came forward with stories about the judge’s unwanted advances (via Flare). The first person to come forward was Josh Kloss, who starred alongside Katy in her music video for “Teenage Dream.” Josh alleges Katy assaulted him at a party by pulling down his pants. A couple of days later, Russian journalist Tina Kandelaki detailed an encounter she had with Katy, where she tried to kiss her without consent while under the influence. Katy has commented on the allegations, but never confirmed or denied them.

Katy Perry has been in the entertainment industry for more than a decade now and has sold millions of records. With that kind of notoriety comes scandal and drama, which Katy has clearly been the subject of in the past. However, since she has become a mother, Katy has been committed to focusing on her work as a judge on American Idol and her baby girl, Daisy.
