Celebrity Yearbook Photos from Before They Were Famous

Katy Perry

Just like Kim Kardashian West, Katy Perry sported the short bob in high school. Perry was born in California and went to religious camps and school growing up. She went to schools like Paradise Valley Christian School and Santa Barbara Christian School for elementary studies. During this time her family was struggling financially, and her mother was very against anything that could be connected to the devil.

Calling deviled eggs ‘angeled eggs’ is one thing, but her mother went as far as not allowing them to eat lucky charms as the word ‘luck’ reminded her of Lucifer. Perry got her love for music from her sister, Angela. She started training when she was nine, got her first guitar when she was thirteen, and started performing the songs she wrote publicly. When she was fifteen, Perry completed her GED and went on to pursue her music career.
