Reviews

- musicOMH: “Where it hits the mark, One of the Boys is sparky and accomplished – through entirely disposable – pop.” 3/5 [link]
- The Observer: “Ultimately, it’s a fun teen party album. Just don’t call it girl power.” 3/5 [link]
- The New York Times: “Ms. Perry is curiosly blank on her major-label debut album (in 2001 she released a moody, eclectic collection of Christian contemporary music).” [link]

Thank Yous

“This list is rather long because this record has been a long time coming. So many people have been a part of the Katy Perry marathon, hopping in, helping out, passing the baton or running to the finish line. This record is for every one of you that have helped me along and pushed me ’til I didn’t think I could be pushed anymore… never.give.up. First of all, I would like to thank God. I’m happy to know there’s someone else out there bigger than me controlling things. I recognize that my talents are God-given gifts and for this I thank You. I would like to also thank my wonderful loving, but weird family, Mom, Dad, David & Ang, Grandma and Jenn. You keep me grounded, easy way or hard way ; ) Very special thanks to Glen Ballard, who believed in me from the very beginning and always challenged me to write a song a day. I love you.
