The singer and actress was living one of the best moments of her career when her world fell apart. That moment after she inspired one of the most dramatic scenes in her film.
Katy Perry is an undisputed popular icon and her music, in addition to having been awarded by all existing awards, reaches millions of people around the world.
But being a pop star doesn't exempt her from having her heart broken and that happened at the worst possible time. It should be remembered that the singer was married to actor Russell Brand for only 14 months, and unfortunately everything ended in great disappointment.
At the time Katy Perry and the artist married, she was 25 years old and he was 35, yet they decided to let themselves go and formalize the love they felt at that moment. The ceremony took place in Rajasthan, India, a special place for them due to its proximity to the sanctuary where, in December 2009, he had proposed to the singer.
“The private and spiritual ceremony was attended by the couple's close friends and family, and was performed by a Christian pastor. The backdrop was the majestic and inspiring fields of India,” the couple detailed in an official statement.
Unfortunately, the hectic life of Katy Perry, a global star in her prime, with tours, recordings, interviews and television shows, made it impossible to be together.
Russel Brand, with her work commitments, could not accompany her either so, 14 months later, while she was in the middle of her California Dreams Tour, she received divorce papers by text message in the middle of a presentation. .
Katy Perry burst into tears and the presentation was about to be suspended, however it was the singer herself who gave the order to continue. When she came out on stage, while The One That Got Away began to play, she expressed: “Sometimes we say forever, but it's easier said than done.”
That situation, years later, was captured in the most moving, moving and dramatic scene in her film Katy Perry: Part Of Me. Later she said: “I was having great success at 23, 24 and 25 and then I met someone who was interesting and stimulating. “It was like a tornado, everything was happening at once.”
