Teenage Dream singer Katy Perry feels "honoured" to have been granted the coveted award and is proud to be regarded as a strong, independent woman as well as recognised for her musical talent.
She told Billboard magazine: "When I heard, I was very honoured. I was also a bit surprised because I thought my year was over! Especially with ending the tour last year, but it's nice to see that it's been extended. It does feel like this record has never ended!
"It's nice, I really appreciate it. I like to be viewed as a strong woman and I think that's what Billboard is basically saying."
