Katy Perry has been named MTV's first-ever Artist of the Year.
"Perry is one of the new millennium's biggest pop stars, and she matched some of pop's greatest icons on the charts this year," MTV wrote on its website. "She made us giggle with an LOL-worthy hosting stint on SNL and made her big-screen debut voicing the iconic Smurfette in The Smurfs. Offscreen, she's proved to be the kind of girl that can laugh off rumors that she's pregnant and getting divorced. She's loud, cool and a real girl's girl."
