[lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Katy Perry[/lastfm]‘s parents are super-religious.  In fact, they’re Christian preachers. Last Wednesday, the superstar parents did some guest-preaching at a church in Westlake, Ohio . . . and according to the not-always-reliable British tabloids, they said some REALLY controversial stuff!

[photogallerylink id=85820 align=left]After Katy’s dad, Keith Hudson went on an ANTI-SEMITIC RANT, he moved on to more pressing issues – such as his daughters failed marriage.

Katy’s mom and dad feel her divorce from Russell Brand is a good thing . . . because it brought people to the church for their sermon.

Keith said, “What has taken place in my daughter’s life has opened many opportunities to go in and be with guarded and gated people. God has given us a platform to go in and meet people . . . and they like us because we are cool.  We are not threatening.”

Katy’s mother added, “I’m sure Katy is trending on the Internet just to get you to church tonight.  I mean all over the world, who knows how God is bringing them in? The most important thing is you are here and God wants to put the fire in you in 2012.”

Meanwhile, Katy Tweeted about her divorce on Saturday, thanking everyone for the support and took a minute to do some housekeeping…

Concerning the gossip, I want to be clear that NO ONE speaks for me. Not a blog, magazine, "close sources" or my family.—
