Innocence in dispute?
Ouch! Katy Perry’s mom has so many issues with her daughter’s choices that she’s shopping around a book to tear into her.
The New York Post says her mother’s proposal will react to some of the comments Katy has made about her religion:
“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.”
According to POPeater, Katy has spoken out about her family’s conservatism on numerous occasions:
“We were never allowed to swear,” Perry has said. “I’d get into trouble just for saying ‘Hell no.’ If you dropped a hammer on your toe in our house you had to say something like ‘Jiminy Christmas… “The only music we were allowed to listen to was gospel. No wonder I rebelled!”
And Perry told Rolling Stone:
 “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.”
It remains to be seen just what her mother will have to say about all this…
