Katy Perry Always Had a Crush on John Mayer

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Dating, Features,

Katy Perry says John Mayer is her biggest crush.

The "Roar" hitmaker harbored secret feelings for her singer/songwriter boyfriend long before they got together and still can't believe she is dating her dream pin-up. When quizzed if she has a cinematic crush, Katy quipped, "I actually am dating my crush. I had a crush on him for a long time, and it just so happens we fit together great."

The 28-year-old star likes snuggling up with John to watch romantic movies, but always ends up sobbing into his shoulder - which can prove embarrassing during long-haul flights. Discussing her favorite films, she told W magazine: The Notebook. And Titanic. And I always cry on planes. My boyfriend [John] and I call them 'deprivation tubes' - you have a glass of wine, and you're watching a movie, and then, wahhhh."

Katy also touched upon her 14-month marriage to comedian Russell Brand, which ended in December 2012, claiming it just wasn't meant to be. When asked if she liked being married, she sighed, "Of course. I really loved it. It was a new, fun, exciting journey. But I like how I am now, and I think all things happen for a reason."

The two stars have grown increasingly close since the Twilight actor split from Kristen Stewart for a second time three weeks ago, and after initially offering the British star support in the wake of his break-up romance is blossoming between the pair.

Katy - who recently ended her romance with John Mayer - and Rob went to see the Icelandic singer perform at the Pantages Theater on Saturday, but left separately to avoid paparazzi and the date follows the British star spending a week at Katy's house. "They are both good friends but have been hanging out more and more recently. Rob poured out his heart to Katy about Kristen cheating on him. She proved to be a really good shoulder to cry on. He stayed at her house in LA after they went away to Santa Barbara together for few days over American Memorial Day weekend late last month. Their friends say they have now fallen for each other," a source said.

Russell Brand: I Never Cheated on Katy Perry

Russell BrandRussell Brand was always faithful to Katy Perry.

The comedian insists he never cheated on the singer - whom he split from in December 2011 after 14 months of marriage and divorced in 2012 - even though the former sex addict struggled with the idea of committing to one person for the rest of his life.

"When I'm in a relationship I'm diligently monogamous and stick to the principles agreed on within that relationship. You've got to. I tried it [marriage] and I loved it. I really think she's a lovely beautiful person. It's just hard isn't it? She's got a lot of options, I've got a lot of options, so you've got to really, really want it."

Russell, 38, and Katy, 28, hardly spent any time together in the first few months of their married life as Katy jetted off on her mammoth California Dreams world tour soon after the ceremony. Nevertheless, the British actor doesn't just blame their work schedules or long-distance nature of their union for the breakdown of their relationship and admits he found it difficult to prioritize her needs.

John Mayer and Katy PerryKaty Perry has been releasing "anger" from her failed romance with John Mayer by going spinning.

The 28-year-old star has been hitting the gym hard to get over her recent split from the 35-year-old singer - whom she started dating last summer but the pair briefly split before reconciling in the autumn - and has also been spending an hour "soothing her brain" at Los Angeles' candlelit Soul Sanctuary spa.

"Katy believes the workouts have really helped her with releasing anger, stress and tension from the split and the sanctuary has been soothing her brain. A few years ago she would have released the energy by hitting the clubs and dancing the night away. But she's getting older now and wants to do things healthily," a source told The Sun.

As well as enduring the intense indoor cycling sessions, Katy has also been keeping in shape while she tours by riding her bicycle around the cities she is playing "in disguise" and surprising fans by giving away free tickets.

How come you know exactly how long my marriage was. Was you timing it?" Noel responded, "For the record, in the sweepstake I came the closest."

Russell then continued to give humorous marital advice, making gags about his relationship with Katy, with whom he tied the knot in a traditional Hindu ceremony in India in October 2010 and filed for divorce from in December 2011. "Thanks, nice to know you're all behind me, very supportive, nice to know you're all supporting me. Let me tell you a thing about marriage. Marriage is a bond that can last up to 14 months. This is a sacred 14-month arrangement. Begins on an elephant. Ends in a newspaper," he joked.

Russell Brand: ‘I Want to Get Married Again’

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Divorce, Weddings, Features,

Russell BrandRussell Brand wants to get married again. The Arthur actor says he is open to tying the knot for a second time even though his first marriage, to Katy Perry, ended in divorce after just 14 months.

"I suppose [I will get married again], if I meet the right man or woman," he told E! News.

Before marrying Katy in October 2010, Russell, 37, says he was so obsessed with sleeping around, it took over his life: "I was once so devoted to 'sh**ging' I would forget to eat. I was like those people in China who die because they're so into their Xbox they stop having dinner. I focus on other things now, like meditation and yoga. I spend more time meditating than having sex. Isn't that good? It was unthinkable five years ago. I think the quality of the sh**ging has improved, though. Yoga gives you an understanding of chakras and energy and how to umbrella the G-spot."

While he has been linked to a string of women since his marriage ended, Katy, 28, is in a serious relationship with singer John Mayer.
