Rex Features

Katy Perry has admitted that she needs a boyfriend with "balls".

The popstar, who is currently dating Gym Class Heroes frontman Travis McCoy, revealed that she is attracted to men who are prepared to stand up to her.

"What's most important for me is that he can be the leader," she told DS. "Basically I need a guy with balls because I've got a big pair of balls myself.

"I want somebody who's got enough balls to say no to me sometimes - I find it boring when guys always say yes to me."

Perry also revealed that male admirers are often too frightened to approach her.

"My boyfriend is 6'5" and covered in tattoos so I don't get a whole lot of attention from guys. They're pretty much scared s**less - thanks baby!" she said.
