After what happened with Gaga - where Madonna mashed up "Born This Way" with "Express Yourself" for her upcoming tour and has called Gaga "reductive" - are you scared of being too inspired by Madonna?
No. I'm inspired by everyone. And you know, I think that the queens love a little catfight every once in a while. It's good for the cocktails and the conversation, I'll tell you that.
On the Rihanna duet:
Obviously, we really want to do it and we want to do it in a big way,
On gay people:
I was set to think that gay people were an abomination, so I was not allowed to speak to anyone who was obviously fabulous and I was never allowed to associate with that type of people.
On her parents views of gay people:
Sometimes people have a really picky way of eating, right? And they don't like certain foods, but a lot of times they haven't even tried those foods. Once they try or know or get educated and have the facts, they're more comfortable and there's no judgment on your shrimp cocktail.
On being a lesbian:
I don't know if it would be appropriate for me to tell you what my straight or gay (experiences) have been in the past. (Laughs)
About having Madonna as a past influence:
Yes, and still continues to.
On her upcoming movie being to be the new "Truth or Dare":
A lot of times, people wanted me to be like someone else or sing like someone else or write like someone else. I wanted to be the first Katy Perry, but they couldn't accept that. So hopefully people can come away from (the film) saying, "I don't have to change myself. I don't have to fit in. I don't have to be what someone else wants me to be in order to reach my goals in life."
About fireworks coming out of her boobs in the video of the same name:
Those fireworks, they come from my spirit. (Laughs) But I know people love going straight to the ****.
I am in no way a Katy fan but these amazing Katy fans I atrl are making me come to like her. I mean, most of the Kats I've met in real life are annoying and pompous.but you guys are amazing and non judgmental, making me really want to like her. I still think most of her music is garbage though. With the exception of One of the about.l. Adore that album
Katy is ridiculous 
Why I love her
