Happy Birthday Katy Perry: Singer Turns 27 (PHOTOS)

Happy Birthday, Katy Perry!

The colorful songstress turns 27 on October 25, and she really has come a long way since her breakout song, "I Kissed A Girl," hit the charts in 2008.

Perry -- born Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson -- has since racked up several Grammy nominations, wed actor Russell Brand and has toured the world singing hits such as "Hot n Cold, " "California Gurls," "Teenage Dream," and "Firework."

Now that she's 27, we thought we'd celebrate the singer's big day with a trip down memory lane. Check out some photos of Perry below and for more Katy Perry flashback photos, head over to Snakkle.com.

NOW WHY DO YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT? I DON'T THINK SO. EVEN IF IT'S TRUE, WHY SAY IT?

She's a talented performer who doesn't take herself too seriously. She keeps her tongue firmly planted in her cute little cheeks.

Katy is 27 but has the maturity level of a 15 year old.

MINE IS THE FIRST OF NOVEMBER. I HAVE ALWAYS EXTREMELY DISLIKED BEING BORN OF THE FIRST OF NOVEMBER, SINCE IT IS THE DAY AFTER HALLOWEEN. HOWEVER, IT IS ALSO ALL SAINT'S DAY AND I AM CATHOLIC. MY PARENT'S HAD FOUR BOYS WHEN I WAS BORN AND THEY THOUGHT IT WAS MIRACLE THAT I WAS A GIRL.LOL
GOD LOVE THEM. I MISS THEM SO. IF YOU HAVE YOUR PARENTS, REMEMBER THEM.

We have an office betting pool devoted exclusively to guessing the month of her divorce from that human flotsam she married, also known as Russell Brand.

He needs 2 years under his belt to ensure permanent US residency and a passport, the well-informed have opted for that deadline, self included.

THAT'S NOT A VERY NICE THING TO SAY. MY HUSBAND SAYS THAT I'M A PESSIMIST.
HE SHOULD MEET YOU. WHEN WE MARRIED, EVERYONE SAID IT WOULDLN'T LAST. THAT WAS 54 YEARS AGO. MOST OF THOSE PEOPLE ARE DEAD.

Her style lies somewhere between a Porn Queen and Jessica Rabbit.

YES! The way she dresses along with the whacky wigs.
