Katy Perry says she is "metrosexual".

The 'I Kissed a Girl' singer - who is currently dating Gym Class Heroes' star Travis McCoy - insists she is not gay, but has experimented with her sexuality in the past.

She said: "I have kissed a girl - it was delightful! I'm a metrosexual. The fact of the matter is that we live in a very metrosexual world. You know, a girl might walk into a bar, meet a boy and discover he is more manicured than she is. Is he wearing foundation and a bit of bronzer? But he is buying me drinks at the same time!"

Katy also denied reports her religious parents were against her controversial single, insisting they have supported her in everything she has chosen to do.

She added: "I think it's important for parents to be in tine with what their kids are doing, from listening to this or that, to having a 'Grand Theft Auto' weekend, where they are digitally raping the other characters.

"My parents are definitely happy for my success. I think if they did it their way then maybe I wouldn't be singing a song with this subject matter, but I'm an adult and I make my own decisions now."
