Katy Perry tried to kiss me, says woman TV host

- By Katie O’Neill

KATY PERRY has been accused of sexual misconduct by a female television presenter who claims the singer tried to kiss her at a party.

Tina Kandelaki said she had to fend off unwanted advances from the pop star but did not specify when it took place. It follows claims by a model that the singer pulled down his trousers and exposed his genitals at a party.

Ms Kandelaki, 43, a Georgian-born Russian TV host, reportedly told a Russian newspaper: “Once I was invited to a private party with Katy Perry, where she, being pretty tipsy, chose me as an object for the manifestat­ion of her passion.

“I managed to fight back and am pleased to say that all my fitness training was not in vain. Katy instantly found herself a new victim (to my shock, again female) for kisses, embracing and dirty dances.”

The allegation comes days after Josh Kloss, 38, said he felt “pathetic and embarrasse­d” when Perry pulled down his underwear.

Mr Kloss, who played Perry’s love interest in her Teenage Dream video, said: “She pulled my sweats and underwear out as far as she could to show a couple of her guy friends… my penis.”

Perry has not commented on the accusation­s.
