As Katy Perry livestreamed her life for 96 hours to celebrate the debut of her new album, “Witness,” she sat down with Viceland’s Dr. Siri Sat Nam Singh for a live therapy session Friday night. The hourlong discussion with the host of “The Therapist,” a reality show about mental health, focused on Perry’s self-image. The singer described how she felt caught between two personas: the pop superstar known as Katy Perry and a person embodied by her given name, Katheryn Hudson, known to close friends and family. At times, Perry told Singh, she also battled alcoholism. “I’m really strong as Katy Perry, and sometimes I’m not as strong as Katheryn Hudson,” she said.
