The ‘Roar’ hitmaker reached the staggering milestone last week after adding a huge 18 million followers over the last 12 months, a feat which has seen her overcome Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga – who have 49.1 million and 41 million followers respectively – to become the most-followed person on the social networking website.

She recently tweeted ”What a raging Friday night! Made a sandwich. Watched The Business of Being Born. Hung out with a cat. #imagrownwomanicandowhateveriwant

”Oh yeah AND we grew to 50 million Katycats! Eh, regular day at the office.(sic)”

Katy used her social media power to urge her fans to follow boyfriend John Mayer following his return to the social networking website. John Mayer may try to get cheap Twitter followers to boost his profile. Since Katy has been urged to follow his boyfriend there has been a great increase in Mayer’s followers.

She wrote: ”FOLLOW FRIDAY @JohnMayer who’s account has basically been in a coma state for a couple of years. Let’s update him on all the cat youtubes he may have missed pls! Thanks!(sic)”

Meanwhile, the ‘Gravity’ hitmaker admitted he was unsure about returning to the website.

He tweeted: ”I used to RULE these hallways…

”I’ll be honest, when it came to rejoining twitter, I had mixed emojis.(sic)”

Katy Perry is an American singer-songwriter who was born in a conservative family and grew up under many restrictions. After singing in church during her childhood, she pursued a career in gospel music during her teenage years. Even though it was not allowed by her parents, Perry heard all kinds of music, which was provided to her by her friends, as she had an affinity for music right from the beginning. As an outspoken person, she stood by her desire to become a music artist and chased her dreams. She did not achieve success at the beginning and had to face a lot of obstacles before receiving her first major break.

Many of her songs got shelved before she was signed by the ‘Capitol Records.’ Her second studio album ‘One of the Boys’ turned out to be a huge hit, marking a turning point in her musical career. Thus, she was launched as a singer and never had to look back ever since. Her next album ‘Teenage Dreams’ won the hearts of many music lovers and became one of the bestselling albums of all time. It created many records and cemented Katy Perry’s place as a prominent artist. Apart from writing and recording songs, Perry is also known for her philanthropic works. She is also an activist who promotes gay rights advocacy.
