Despite being accused of courting publicity, Katy Perry insists she just wants a normal life and a normal relationship.

The 29-year-old singer told Entertainment Weekly: ”I want to have a normal life with a normal relationship and I don’t want to be forced to just hang out in a hotel room all the time.”

Perry claims she only shares bits of her private life with the public. ”I keep enough to myself. I’m going to go on dates and movies and dinners and when I do it’s not because I’m trying to garner any kind of publicity, it’s because it’s something that is just an inevitable byproduct of this life. It’s never my main focus, it’s never intentional. My ideal date is just dinner and a movie. It’s so normal. And a hike, we love to hike,” she said.

Katy, who is dating singer-songwriter John Mayer, says that her boyfriend’s opinion about her new album is very important to her. ”I think he’s very proud of it. He’s heard it over the process of me making it. I think his opinion is a priority for me, but also me being happy with it is probably a bit more of a priority,” she added.
