Katy Perry Reveals Baggage From Russel Brand Affected Her Relationship with John Mayer

In an interview for Marie Claire, "Roar" singer Katy Perry has been revealing more about her relationships with both ex husband, Russell Brand, and current boyfriend, John Mayer.

 According to Katy Perry there was a moment in their marriage that Brand wanted to have kids but she didn't feel ready yet. Which is not to say that she didn't love him, in fact the complete opposite is true-she felt so much for the British comedian that she willed herself not to feel during their very much public split: "There were two weeks of my life after I found out the truth of my marriage where I was like, 'OK. All right. I can't feel this. This is too intense right now.' I was, like, just eating Flamin' Hot Cheetos and drinking, and that's it."

It was such a rough ride that it even affected her relationship with on again-off again boyfriend, fellow musician John Mayer. The normally bubbly pop star revealed that the break up with Mayer was a venture into searching for what was lacking inside her. Katy Perry admits that she still had a lot of "ex-husband stuff" bubbling under her exterior and she needed to focus on "self love" to be able to commit fully to a new relationship.

That's all in the past though as Katy Perry is quick to sing praises for Mayer now that they have gotten back together: "He's just a fantastic partner. I've been a fan of his for such a long time. He's got a brilliant, brilliant mind. It's a rad, mature relationship."

When asked about her career, she gushes about how it is the one thing she will never be lazy about and how a willingness to be vulnerable has made her stand out from her peers. Guess this California girl has it all figured out.
