Star's preacher dad urges congregations to 'pray' for his daughter.
Pop star Katy Perry has been branded a “devil child” — by her own dad.
Firebrand
preacher Keith Perry also claims watching his daughter’s gigs is so
hellish he ends up weeping because the fans are worshipping the singer
instead of God.
And, in a string of bizzare
sermons, he urges congregations to “pray for Katy”, whose hits include I
Kissed A Girl And I Liked It.
Keith and wife Mary are currently touring American churches as star speakers.
The
pair, who have made millions off the back of their famous daughter,
show a video making Katy out to be a “devil child” who needs “healing”.
Speaking
in Santa Fe Springs, California, Keith ranted: “They ask how can I
preach if I produce a girl who sang about kissing another girl?
“I
was at a concert of Katy’s where there were 20,000. I’m watching this
generation and they were going at it. It almost looked like church.
“I stood there and wept and kept on weeping and weeping. They’re loving and worshipping the wrong thing.”
Katy’s parents ask for donations, saying they need “not one or two dollars, but 20s” so they can go to Switzerland.
Katy, 28, was a church singer before hitting the bigtime. She was briefly wed to sex-mad Brit comedian Russell Brand.
