Katy Perry Thrilled of Prince William and Kate Middleton's Wedding
Katy Perry is looking forward to British royal Prince Willam's wedding next year - because the history-obsessed star insists the ceremony will be an unforgettable event. The heir-to-the-throne recently announced plans to wed longterm girlfriend Kate Middleton in April and he's already garnered support from stars including David Beckham, Snoop Dogg, Sir Tom Jones and Westlife.
The "I Kissed a Girl" hitmaker has been learning about England's past through her new husband, British funnyman Russell Brand, and she can't wait to watch the Prince get married. But Perry fears the global interest in the highly-publicized wedding will be difficult for the royal couple to cope with.
She tells Britain's The Sun, "I think the whole world is going to be watching that one. The whole world is going to be tuning in. I think it's just one of those moments that you don't want to miss. I find the whole royalty system very interesting because we don't have it in the States. One of my favorite subjects has always been history, and Russell has been very helpful filling me in with the history of the English."
"Going by history, the interest in Kate and William's relationship is probably a hundred times what we get. I don't know them first-hand, but from an outsider's perspective it looks like it's going to be really fun for them but a lot of hard work at the same time."

Katy Perry and Russell Brand Refuse to Sell Their Wedding Photos to Media
Newlyweds Katy Perry and Russell Brand rejected a string of lucrative offers to sell their wedding photos to the press, because they feared it would only lead to further media intrusion into their lives.

The comedian tells U.S. newsman Larry King, "They offered us money to sell the photos, but once you've sold the photos to the wedding, how can you go, 'Oh, give us privacy!' We kept them private and normal."

During the same interview, Brand also described what it's like to be married to Perry. "It's just a normal marriage," Brand said. "The other day, I put a shirt on, and she went ... 'You're wearing that shirt, are you?' I thought, 'That's actually happening?' That's a thing off a sitcom. That happened in my actual life. I wasn't allowed to wear it. If she says don't wear that shirt, I don't wear it."
