After meeting at the 2009 VMAs, Perry and Brand started off 2010 with a bang by announcing their engagement, and frankly, things just got better and better for her from there.2010 Highlights: An impressive engagement ring in hand, Perry set to work on her follow-up to her 2008 breakthrough, One of the Boys, working again with pop maestros Dr. Luke and Max Martin while turning in one of the most memorable guest-judge spots in the early audition rounds of what would turn out to be a very lackluster season of "American Idol."
