Pop star Katy Perry’s company has been paid nearly $200,000 by the campaigns of presidential candidates she has endorsed, including Hillary Clinton, public records show.
Perry endorsed Clinton in October. Two months later, the Hillary for America campaign reported paying Perry’s company, Kitty Purry Inc., about $70,000 for “event production.”
It was not immediately clear which event that referred to or what services Perry’s company provided. Neither the Clinton campaign nor Perry’s manager responded to questions about the arrangement.
Perry has headlined Clinton campaign events, including an Iowa rally in late October. She and Elton John will perform a concert for campaign donors next month.
Clinton’s campaign is not the first to enlist the services of Perry’s company. Barack Obama’s reelection campaign paid Kitty Purry Inc. more than $128,000 for a host of services related to a campaign event.
Those payments were made weeks after the president was reelected.
