Katy Perry receives constant kiss requests
Katy Perry has admitted that she is tired of being asked to live up to the lyrics of her chart-topping single 'I Kissed A Girl'.

The singer revealed that hundreds of her female fans have asked for "snogs" since the track became a worldwide hit earlier this year.

"Girls now keep asking for a kiss," Perry confirmed. "After every show on my tour I stay behind to do an autograph signing. But about a dozen women will want a snog. I just sweetly say, 'No, thank you'. If I kissed everybody who asked I'd probably go away with something I don't really want."

Asked about the inspiration behind the track, she replied: "I was reading a magazine and opened it up to a picture of either Scarlett Johansson or Megan Fox, and I turned to my boyfriend and said, 'You know, if they walked through the door and asked me to pucker up, I would just do it.'"

The song topped the UK singles chart for the first time at the weekend, following success in the US and Australia.
