Katheryn Hudson, known as Katy Perry is an American singer best known for her hit songs ‘I kissed a girl’ and ‘Hot’n'cold’. She has stated on Portuguese Radio she is Part Portuguese on her Mother’s side.
Katy Perry’s maternal grandfather’s brother was director Frank Perry. Frank Perry’s father was Portuguese and his (Frank’s) maternal grandfather’s brother was Charles M Schwab, a German-American steel magnate. So this makes Katy 1/8th Portuguese and at least 1/16h German.

so she’s basically so little Portuegese it really doesn’t matter, like a Caucasian’s ancestor’s being from Ethiopia back in the 1800′s or something.

Ethnic, please add Irish! :D
So happy that she’s partially Irish.
There’s a song called “The Galway Girl” and a lyric is ‘and her hair was black and her eyes were blue’ ;D
Katy is a Galway girl. :P

God, no! Some Portuguese do resemble Lebanese, yes. That’s because the many of Portuguese in North America are from the same regions in Portugal.
Anywhere south of Coimbra for example, including Lisbon and venturing all the way south to the Algarve and east to Spain, you would be hard pressed to find someone lebo looking.
It’s easy to spot that sort of Portuguese and that’s what you would associate Portuguese men to look like. But do a search on the Portuguese National Football team. Try finding a single one that looks lebonese. You would be hard pressed.

She is not down-to-Earth at all. Her songs are about tits and lesbians. Althoug, she is hot.

How do you know she is ‘not down-to-earth’? I take it you know her personally? What appears on TV does not justify for her personality and how she is privately. But you already know that, don’t you? Wait, the only thing you noticed are what’s on her chest and backside. Talk about being shallow.
