News Summary

• Katy Perry has a reputation for purchasing property from elderly people who did not want to or did not mean to sell it.
• This has technically only happened twice, but both legal battles have taken years to play out, so it feels like Perry is relocating senior citizens and collecting their real estate like Kewpie dolls.
• In the case of Carl Westcott, an 85-year-old veteran and the founder of 1-800-Flowers, a judge already ruled that Perry gets his home.
• In court documents filed on November 21, Perry says Westcott owes her for repairs on the home as well as to make up for the potential rent money she lost while their court battle dragged on.
