The popstar told The Mirror that she has not given up on love or British men, despite the pain of her divorce. Perry said: "I'm moving forward one step at a time.

Katy Perry feels she has a split personality. The 'Firework' hitmaker admits her outrageous outfit choices reflect her moods at the time and says that is why her creations are sometimes bizarre because she feels a mixture of emotions. She explained: "My sense of style is like one of those things that change colour with mood, always evolving. "When I get up, I choose my outfit depending on my state of mind. If it is a 'mixture of many things' it is because I feel many different emotions at the same time, to the point where you feel you almost have a split personality. "Basically, in the past, my preferences were always directed towards styles that were daring; the flashier, shinier and imposing the dress the better, this is the reason why I still love the work of Jean Charles de Castelbajac and Jeremy Scott." The 27-year-old pop star is a big fan of Madonna and she admires the way the Queen of Pop constantly reinvents herself. Katy hopes to be able to...

The pop stars energetic Day-Glo performances and chart success tying Michael Jacksons Bad with five No. 1 singles from her album Teenage Dream are undercut by heartbreak.

A source told UsMagazine.com: "Rob and Katy are good friends so he was happy to celebrate with her, it wasn't just the four of them, but everyone was close."
