Katy Perry, the renowned pop star, recently took to social media to express her deep sorrow over the passing of her manager, Martin Kirkup. In a heartfelt post on Instagram, she shared cherished photos of herself with him and paid tribute to the man who played a significant role in her career.

Describing Martin as a special person in her life, Katy expressed her belief that people never truly die, but rather move on to the next world. She also highlighted Martin’s role as one of her bosses at Direct Management for nearly 20 years. He was a leader who always emphasized the importance of data, facts, and science.

Despite Martin’s disdain for social media, Katy felt compelled to talk about him. Revealing her struggle to make the post, she wrote, “It took me a while to make this post… something about posting it makes it all feel final…”

Expressing her gratitude for her incredible team, Katy acknowledged their continuous support and dedication in fighting for her voice to be heard. Martin, in particular, helped her feel safe and worked hard to ensure she received what she deserved.

Just days before his passing, Martin had the opportunity to listen to some of Katy’s new music. Katy cherished this moment and felt relieved that she could make him proud.

While Katy and Martin didn’t get to say a physical goodbye, she firmly believes that he knows how much she respected and admired him. Memories of his hearty chuckles and sharp wit will forever echo in her mind.

Martin Kirkup leaves behind his loving wife, Lale Kirkup, his daughter Melisa Kirkup Blatt, his son John Kirkup, and three grandchildren, Sam, Abigail, and Ivy. They will surely miss him dearly.
