ADRIAN THRILLS: Katy Perry was once so captivating but her latest album is a damp squib
ADRIAN THRILLS: Katy Perry's momentum has stalled of late, and the countdown to 143, her first album in four years, has been far from smooth.
Famous for her peppermint swirl dresses and candy-coated pop, Katy Perry was a breath of fresh air when she first swept onto the music scene with 2008's breakthrough single I Kissed A Girl and a debut album, One Of The Boys, bursting with verve and personality.
