When the lattermost song reached the summit in August, ...

Audio for this story from Morning Edition will be available at approx. 9:00 a.m. ET January 20, 2012 Felipe Dana / AP If you listen to commercial radio, this is not news: Katy Perry had a huge year. She went number one five times. She was the most played artist on the radio. But the record industry is so weird, it's actually hard to know whether this kind of success translates into huge amounts of money. So we asked. I walked over to Katy Perry's record label. She's on Capital, which is under EMI. I met Greg Thompson, executive vice president of marketing and promotion at EMI. "Did you guys end up in the black?" "As far as I know, yes." "How do you not know?!" "I believe we did. Absolutely." But how much did they spend on Katy Perry? And how much did they make?

Posted 13 minutes ago by Jenna Hally Rubenstein in Celebrity , Music , Videos Remember how Katy Perry 's video for " Teenage Dream " is like, the best video you've ever seen ever ? It just got even better! The already-perfect "Teenage Dream" received a " Pop Up Video " makeover, and we're just a little shocked with what we learned. Hooray! Makeout scenes AND knowledge! Thanks to our well-informed pals over at "Pop Up Video" HQ, we learned that Katy used her real life high school friends as extras in the video, which was shot in her hometown of Santa Barbara. We also find out that even though Katy's parents are extremely religious, she invited them to the set of the video which we all know gets pretty rowdy -- not only did The Parents Perry have to witness their daughter practically having sex with a male model, but they also had front row seats to Katy's pals "taking advantage" of the free booze on set.
