KATY Perry isn't letting her looming second wedding anniversary get the better of her.

The Wide Awake singer would have been celebrating her second anniversary with former husband Russell Brand on October 23rd.

But instead of letting the date get her down, Katy has glammed herself up for a stunning new photoshoot.

Posing for one of her latest campaigns with GHD, the 27-year-old could pass for a vintage film star in a sparkling backless dress and film noir-inspired dark lips and eyes.

Along with releasing these gorgeous black-and-white snaps, Katy has also apparently decided to throw a 'divorce party' with her pals to help her get through what would have been her anniversary.

According to a snitch, Katy is having "a small gathering at her home" to make sure the date - which is just two days before her 28th birthday - goes by without any tears.
