Katy Perry broke up w/Robert Ackroyd, says concert movie will talk about Russell

Katy Perry

Last week, Russell Brand appeared on the “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” and skillfully fielded questions about his estranged wife, Katy Perry, whom he claims to only have love and positivity for. Of course, Russell is at least partially full of crap because no one resorts to divorce when only positive feelings are attached to the marriage, but whatever. Now Katy is appearing on Today’s episode of “Ellen” to promote her upcoming horror flick 3-D concert movie, Katy Perry: Part Of Me, and she claims that she’ll be revealing “all sides of her life” with the movie. Should Russell be afraid?

Ellen: Like you said, you shot the good, the bad. Who knows what’s going to happen in your life when you start shooting things? You got married during that time.

Katy: I did.

Ellen: And then that didn’t turn out to last and that part of it is still in there?

Katy: I thought it was important for me..First of all, I thought it was important to show everything in between. I think sometimes people think that we’re perfect and we know we’re not perfect, at all. I think it’s important start breaking down the idea that to achieve your dream you always have to be perfect or flawless or live in some kind of fantasy world. So that’s why I decided to put everything into the film. In the most tasteful way. But mostly it’s about how I go there and the ride along the way which can be bumpy but mostly it was extremely fun…

Eh. I suspect that this movie is strictly (at least from the looks of the trailer) sugar-coated for Katy’s tweenaged fanbase, so Russell probably won’t be dragged through the mud except to say that Katy is “sad” about her failed marriage. In other words, there will be no talk of wheelchair pr0n in this concert movie.

Meanwhile, Katy’s first real post-marriage “fling” has ended. Even though she called him her “boyfriend,” she and Robert Ackroyd (guitarist of Florence + the Machine) have ended their Coachella-based romance. So says E! Online:

This fling has flung.

Katy Perry is once again single and ready to mingle after E! News confirms that Russell Brand’s estranged wife called it quits with her rebound rocker beau, Florence + the Machine guitarist Robert Ackroyd.

The pair weren’t together long, only going public with their coupling at last month’s Coachella Music Festival, but over the weekend, Katy was already on the arm of a “smokin'” hot other…

But not like that!

The newly single “Part of Me” singer turned up at the Billboard Music Awards last night—where she debuted her new song, “Wide Awake,” ostensibly about her ex-husband—with no less a red carpet companion than her own grandma, Ann Hudson.

“My date to tonight’s Billboard Music Awards is hotter than the las vegas weather,” the 27-year-old tweeted before the ceremony. “SMOKIN’!”

So cute!

As for her new unattached status, don’t expect Perry to be pining away.

“It wasn’t serious,” a source told E! News. “She likes him a lot, but it was just a distraction. It was very short-lived, she’s still dealing with getting over her marriage and it’s going to take her a while to truly be able to trust anyone again.”

In other words, he’s not exactly the one who got away.

“Whe is remaining friends with Rob, but they were never serious to begin with, and she had doubts about it from the start. There are no hard feelings, they are both just very busy and had no expectations. Rob is a good guy, but she just wants to focus on her work.”

[From E! Online]

So I guess this is maybe why Katy took her grandma as her official date to the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday evening? I’d like to think she took grandma along for the ride as a sweet gesture and not because she “needed” a red-carpet companion. Hopefully, that’s the case.

    She looks really good here. Thank god the blue hair is gone!

    I made the mistake of watching her Billboard performance and it was just awful. The woman cannot sing. At all. How did she ever get past the front door of her record company?

    • valleymiss says:

      How did she get past the front door, you ask? Well, she was leading with her boobs. That usually helps. 😉

      I LOVE that lavender dress in the last picture. Love the color (SO much), the cut, everything. LOVE!

  3. Lottie says:

    Calling her stupid movie a horror flick-hahaha! I want to see this disastrous movie flop so hard. The fact that she’s using her divorce to sell it should tell everyone how bad it is. There is no talent there.
    Amanda G–you’re right, she cannot sing at all. Ever. This is a b*tch that should lip-synch because that might be the only way she could stay on key. Every time she “performs” at an awards show she brings more up on stage to distract us all. Soon, she’ll have a full-on circus with elephants. Still won’t work. It will still be obvious she’s useless.

    Why is everything in 3D? The only thing worse than Katy Perry on screen is Katy Perry jumping out at you with her lack of talent and overwhelming sense of desperation. Is it just me or does she look like Kate Gosslein(sp) from the side? Their profiles are similar.

    To end with something nice: I want to hate both the dresses that she is wearing but she does look nice in both.

    WAIT—

    I just realized.. that lavender sparkly dress.. I KNEW I’d seen it somewhere before…

    If Katy had been blonde, it would have matched perfectly.

    She has the flattest butt ever!

  7. SirSnarksalot says:

    She is a big plastic kewpie doll with too much make up. My guess is Russell woke up and realized he married a petulant child and hit the road. He handled it with grace and respect and she released a slam song. Only one person came out looking good and it ain’t her. And she makes me tired with all the effort she puts into her image.

    • Rio says:

      She’s another person I think would just be utterly exhausting to be friends with. She’s like the living embodiment of the “manic pixie dreamgirl”. It’d just drive you up the friggin’ wall.

  8. Jordan says:

    How narcissistic to imagine that everyone thinks she’s perfect. I don’t know anyone past their teenage years that thinks any celebrity is perfect. In fact, their imperfections are the reason we are here on a gossip site.

  9. Celebasshat says:

    Its really suprises me how celeb are in d process of divorce, but are seen prancing about with their new side piece. Pls tell me how they do it while normal folks dont dare.

  10. Ainsley says:

    I hate this skank. I wonder how much money her people have spent buying radio airplay and copies of her singles. She doesn’t need to answer questions about her life and marriage–nobody asked, nobody cares!

  11. homegrrrl says:

    Her face looks really strange, right? Like a different person. Love the hair. The best so far.

  12. It is ME!! says:

    Why can’t an ex have positivity and love for their former spouse? That was a bullshit line, Bedhead.
