Platinum-selling singer and songwriter, Katy Perry, is understood to be amongst essentially the most successful international pop sensations on this planet. In 2010, her album Teenage Dream spawned five number-one hits at the Billboard Hot 100 becoming the primary album in history recorded by a feminine artist to reach this.
Katy may be a nine-time People's Choice Awards winner in exactly the last four years - most recently taking home the award for Favourite Female Artist. She is the second one most 'followed' and 'liked' celebrity from America, behind only to Lady Gaga on social media. In 2011, Katy Perry fans voted her to win Favorite Internet Sensation.

Priyanka received the People's Choice Award for Favourite International Music Debut which was guest presented by Viacom18 Group CEO, Sudhanshu Vats. She collected the award for her debut single In My City, featuring will.i.am, which went directly to hit triple platinum in India.
Speaking on the PCA's, Priyanka said, `This is very out of the ordinary because I HAVE NOT won an award like this before. For me it is a very big deal, and since this was my dad's dream, thanks to the entire people who voted for me and who think that I deserved this award.`
`We are thrilled to have Priyanka on board to introduce the PCA in India and perform on the event,` said executive producer Akash Sharma. `With her experience, mainstream appeal and standing as some of the top female artists of our time, PCA has the chance to push the limits of Indian pop culture to the world.`
