Katy Perry's creative men

Jul 13, 2009, 5:00 GMT

Katy Perry will only date creative men.

The 'Waking Up in Vegas' singer - who is in anon-off romance with Gym Class Heroes rapper Travis McCoy - needs to be in a relationship with a man who has a similar outlook on life to her.

Katy said: "These days I'm attracted to creative men - musicians or artists who are able to express intense emotions through their work. How they look is secondary to how they stimulate me mentally.

"In high school, hunky was good enough for me and that's how I ended up in a relationship with a golfer who was just about to turn pro. I had no interest in golf and he had no interest in music. We had absolutely nothing in common. It was doomed to fail and it did after a few months. No more golfers for me."

The 24-year-old star - who is famed for her raunchy songs and stage routines - also vowed to stop her wild ways when she starts to get old.

She told Britain's Live! magazine: "I plan to grow old gracefully rather than disgracefully.

I'm not planning to be a mad, drunken old woman. I aspire to a state of grace in my later years. I'll be the perfectly nice old lady next door who looks after your cat when you're away."
