that's fuckin' right it was an error.
"CORRECTION: PEOPLE.com’s Feb. 2 report that Katy Perry told an audience at her show in Los Angeles not to date the lead singer from Gym Class Heroes (Travis McCoy) was incorrect. The quote was based on erroneous reporting. People.com regrets the error.

I challenged them to actually find the audio clip/video of me “QUOTED” saying that.

They of course couldn’t cause… I didn’t say that. I would never be so tacky. I go great lengths to keep it about the music. I made a different random type of joke before I introduced my song, ur so gay. I never mentioned Travis or his lovely band, as they are all still friends of mine.

I don’t care if you make fun of me, my music, my zits, my cellulite or my bad choice of clothing… I really don’t. Just have some soul, and don’t LIE. I am not asking to be exempt from the media, I am just asking for some fucking fact checking.

…steps off soap box.

*forgive me to those who don’t understand, nor care. Onwards and upwards!*"

Katy Perry Talks About Speaking in Tongues

We learned a couple things we didn't know about Katy Perry from her interview with CBS news anchor Katie Couric. Grammy nominee Katy Perry talked about how her family would speak in tongues. Katy attended a Pentecostal church when she was growing up. Katy Perry said the movie Jesus Camp was like "behind the scenes footage" of her childhood. Katy also said her mother once went on a date with Jimi Hendrix. Take a look:

Katy Perry Kisses And Tells On Travis McCoy

Katy Perry Disses Ex Travis McCoy In Concert

What happened, Katy Perry? We thought this whole mess with Travis McCoy and how you make big sweeping public statements about him was over. And, we thought we vowed we never were going to talk about it ever again. Remember?

And now, 10 days after you said you were joking about being celibate, here we are once again wondering why it is you’re bringing up your former flame in concert when you know you should be singing about kissing girls and getting all excited about the Grammy awards on Sunday.

“Girls, if you have ever dated a boy — specifically the lead singer from Gym Class Heroes — don’t do it!” you reportedly said in concert on Saturday in Los Angeles, according to People magazine. “Boys should have a heart. You know what I mean girls? Boys just want the milk, but they don’t want to buy the cow.”

You’ve said that people misinterpret your onstage missives about boys who are presumably Travis or not Travis — that people take what you say out of context — but this time you’ve basically called Travis out, so there’s no take-backs. I will give you the benefit of the doubt, though, and will assume what you meant was that you wanted more out of the relationship than he was willing to give. (Remember that rumor about him proposing to you at the top of the Eiffel Tower? Perhaps that was a sore subject to bring up.)

Anyways, Katy, we’re going to guess this was a moment of weakness — that you let your broken heart overtake your brain for a moment and out came the Travis slip. We’ll let it go this time, but I can’t say the same for the next!

Katy Perry Goes Wild On Stage

Katy Perry ups the tempo on her usual fun and bizarre stageshows as she dresses like a pussycat complete with catsuit, ears and a tail.

At one point her adoring audience nearly pulled her into the crowd and was saved and pulled back by a tattooed crew member.

Perry performed live at the Marquee Theatre in Tempe, AZ, during her Hello Katy Tour.

If You Wanted To Hear Katy Perry's Mid-Period Work, Today's Your Lucky Day

The long-in-the-can album by the songwriting team The Matrix, which features Katy Perry and some British guy singing songs written by the people who brought you "Sk8er Boi" and that really dreadful Liz Phair album, was released to various digital-music stores last week via Let's Hear It Records. (Which seems to be the Matrix's very own label.) The question is: Who wants to hear this thing?

The material on this disc seems close enough to Perry's befuddlingly popular recent work that people who weren't quite satisfied by the twelve tracks of One of the Boys, but aren't willing to head all the way back to her Christian pop days, can hold out until Perry makes her way to the studio again. At least she's still "completely outrageous and [she'll] do anything for attention!"

How on earth did Columbia Records pass on releasing these gems for six whole years?

Katy Perry's high alcohol tolerance

Katy Perry can drink eight beers.

The 'Hot N Cold' singer claims she has a high tolerance for alcohol and rarely suffers from hangovers.

The 24-year-old star said: "I can drink eight beers and feel fine the next day. I usually drink dark beer because I hate hangovers, and I can't drink and work in the same schedule."

Katy also revealed she would rather drink at home with her close friends than party in a bar or club.

She added to Q magazine: "My party time is usually a dinner party with friends. I couldn't give a f**k about going to clubs. I want to drink really good wine and really good beer, because I like really good wine and really good beer."

Katy has previously denied claims she battled alcoholism while waiting for her break in the music industry.

She said: "I didn't even know what rehab was until Amy Winehouse sang about it. I've tried things of course, but I've never been addicted. I've never had any problems."

Katy Perry Kisses & Tells


With her jet black hair, porcelain skin and cherry red lips, Katy Perry may look like her idol Jane Russell, but her cheeky songs are what first got her noticed and propelled her to the top of the charts.

As a part of the "Road to the Grammys" series, the Early Show took a special look at the Grammy nominee who's generated a lot of buzz in the music industry.

The 24-year-old is up for best female pop vocal for her smash hit "I Kissed A Girl," which she's going to perform during the Grammys.

Early Show co-anchor Julie Chen caught up with Perry in one of her favorite places, "Hotel Café," a small, intimate club in L.A. where she got her start and where she's rehearsing for the big night.

She's part pop tart, part pop princess and now a Grammy nominee.

Perry's cheeky song about her own curiosity shot to the top of the charts in more than 20 countries.

"I knew I was going to come out kind of, like … " Perry began.

"Controversial?" Chen asked.

"Guns blazing, a grown-up Shirley Temple singing, 'I kissed a girl and I liked it.' And some people were going to be, like, 'Die!' And some people would be, like, 'Wow! This is cool!'" Perry said.

She admits there was one particular girl who inspired the song.

"Does this girl that you grew up having a little girl crush on -- which all girls go through -- does she know?" Chen asked.

"She doesn't know," Perry said while blushing.

"Is that going to stay secret?" Chen asked.

"Well … " Perry said. "I think there are just very powerful beauties, when they walk into the room, it's kind of like -- it doesn't matter if you're a male or a female. Everybody is, like, jaws drop. And you're, like -- 'If you want to sit behind a kissing booth right now, we'll all line up.'"

With porcelain skin and cherry red lips, her look is vintage and sexy. According to Perry, it was swing dancing that inspired her style back when she was just 13.

"I kind of started to emulate them, desperately asked my grandmother if there was anything she had left in her closet that made any sense for me," Perry said.

At 17, she left home to try to make it in the music biz, but producers kept trying to mold her.

"They would take the very most popular song of the time, like 'Since You've Been Gone' or 'Complicated,' and say 'Katy, you really have to do something exactly like this,'" Perry said.

"What would you say to them?" Chen asked.

"I'd tell them that I want my own path. That's really hard to do," Perry said.

But she believed in herself, even after a friend told Perry what music executives were saying behind her back.

"'I think everybody in the industry sees her as, like, damaged goods, you know? Like something you put in, like, a defect aisle at Ross or something. Where it's like you can still buy this, but it's got a dent in it,'" she joked, imitating the friend.

"Did it hurt when you heard that stuff, or did it make you want to work that much harder and maybe not share your dreams with people?" Chen asked.

"No, it didn't hurt. I'm never hurt by what people say because everybody says whatever they want to say," Perry said.

In the end, it's Perry who is having the last laugh.

"I was just kind of like, 'Well, one day when I'm going to the Grammy Awards, I'll wave to you like this (she motioned her hand). You'll be at home heating up your microwave dinner,'" Perry said.
