Amid the controversy surrounding the story, and the publication's ‘baby bump’ photos, sources close to the star have been forced to come out and deny the rumours on Katy's behalf.
MailOnline.com reports that it has learned exclusively that the story is false, with a source telling the website: “Katy is not pregnant. She can’t even think about getting pregnant right now. She is in the middle of her world tour."
Just to ensure that there was no confusion, the source added: “She is busy non-stop and the tour is very demanding. She could not do those shows if she was with child. She has to dance and fly in the air and do all these stunts – she needs to be in top shape.”
Katy has previously expressed her desire to start a family, admitting last year that she would never let being single hold her back from having children.
“I don’t need a dude. It’s 2014! We are living in the future; we don’t need anything. I’m not anti-men – I love men – but there is an option if someone doesn’t present himself,” she said.
