We were just eating and I noticed the waiters had this quote on the back of their shirts and the quote said: 'I've kissed more girls than Katy Perry.' It was the most random thing I've ever seen in my life! I was like, 'What's happening? Who did this? Is this a joke? Am I being Punk'd right now?' When I see little things like that I think, 'What did I do?'" no! The other day I was in Canada and I was grabbing some food with my band at this restaurant.

Have you got to grips with the incredible success of 'I Kissed A Girl' yet?

Sometimes I tell the boy if a song's about him, but sometimes I let it remain a mystery." I'm still in touch with him but I don't think he knows the song's about him. "It basically ended with me going, 'Alright, I'm done', and then when I said I was done he figured it all out. He changed moods like he was going through the menopause." For like three days! It would drive me crazy 'cause I'd be like, 'Where'd you go? I thought we were making plans for this weekend?' I realised this guy was the moodiest motherf***er I ever met and honestly that's all it came down to. "Yeah, a very real relationship! I was with this boy I really, really cared for and we'd be having a conversation by text or by email and then he'd just disappear. Is 'Hot N Cold' about a real relationship? As her stonking new single 'Hot N Cold' beds down in the top ten, we hooked up with Perry to find out whether she means to be quite so provocative. The daughter of California pastors first caught our attention with a song called 'Ur So Gay' she reached number one this summer with one about kissing a girl and then she hit the headlines again after posing with a knife in a publicity photo. Whatever you think of Katy Perry, you could never accuse her of being boring.
