On her MTV Movie Awards dress:
BILLY: How does Russell feel about you wearing a see through dress? Does he get jealous at all?
KATY PERRY: I think he likes it! Well um if you know anything about Russell, he doesn’t wear a whole lot of clothing either… I was channeling Britney Spears when she did that see through sparkly number in her music video.

***

BILLY: Will you be a married woman when your album comes out or will that happen after the fact?
KATY: I think it’s crazy up until August 24th and I think that we will get married this year, hopefully.
BILLY: This year hopefully but probably not before the album.
KATY: Probably not, no.

***

BILLY: Rihanna is planning your bachelorette party?
KATY: I hope so!
BILLY: Is that true?
KATY: That’s what I heard. That will be one of the times you’ll find me face down like in an alley way with like uh a penis hat, you know those like brides to be that like wear those awful things and you’re like, what is going on darling?

***

BILLY: Have you always had confidence over your body and body image?
PERRY: Some times. It’s weird you know, when you fall in love and have someone that really supports you, you stop really worrying about all this make up you have to wear or what everybody thinks about you…cause the person that you love loves you back.

On staying grounded at 25 years-old:
KATY: I have my idiotic moments too of course. I take it one day at a time and you know I have a really good support system. I have a good team. I don’t end up wasted with my face down in an alleyway. I kind of steer the ship pretty good so that I don’t hit any icebergs.
