Katy Perry: I’m on a meal plan, which absolutely sucks

Katy Perry is on a strict diet as she gears for her upcoming California Dreams world tour. The Firework singer — who’s married to British comedian Russell Brand – says she’s restricting her eating habits in order to prepare her body for the high-energy shows ahead of her.

“After this interview I’m going to have a nice healthy breakfast. I’m on a meal plan, which absolutely sucks,” she explained.

“But on Sundays I get to have a cheat day where I go buck wild and eat In-N-Out Burger. Then I’ll work out, go to a vocal lesson, run through the entire set at rehearsals, go to dance rehearsal until 10pm and then go home and sort through e-mails concerning the production. I feel like I’m training for the Olympics!

“I just really want to raise the bar. Touring is no longer an ordinary thing where you play an instrument in jeans and a T-shirt,” she said.

“It has some pizzaz these days, and I’m definitely bringing the pizzaz with a lot of bells and whistles. The show has a Broadway feel to it. It’s got a storyline that’s going to be very interesting, kind of loosely based on my life, but a cartoon version.”

Perry recently revealed how she’s learning how to change her dresses and costumes in record time.

“I just found out that I will probably be changing between 15 and 20 times in the show,” explains Katy.

“I’ve done a lot of changes before so I think I can handle it. The trick is to have clothes underneath clothes, underneath clothes, underneath clothes. And it’s all about Velcro — it was such a saving grace.”
