Katy Perry's father has been attacked by a woman who accused him of raising a "satanic woman".

Keith Hudson, a preacher, was ambushed outside a Christian radio station in Phoenix, Arizona, by a woman who accused his daughter of being "one of the most wicked people" who had "led millions to hell."

The woman, named Christine, was recorded accusing the preacher of having undermined his own ministry by not issuing "tough love" towards his daughter.

"And you claim to have a ministry?" she said. "Then minister to your daughter because that is needed more than ever. You ought to know better when you have a girl who walks with satan more than ever."

She accused Perry of having led her son on the highway to hell, along with millions of other young people.

Hudson challenged her on whether her attack on him was Christian behaviour, to which she replied that she was within her right to judge him and said "you will be held accountable for what you have done and what you have allowed her to do."

She also accused Perry of "having sex with demons on the video" to her song "ET" and told Hudson that "God is angry with the wicked every day and your daughter is wicked."

Hudson told TMZ that this was the first time he had been so viciously confronted over Katy, and that he thought Christine was a "bitter and angry woman trying to blame my kid for her kid's mistakes."

Christine said she had "no relationship with my son because he is walking away from the Lord."
