'I'm The Biggest Nana On The Block': Katy Perry Confesses To Bizarre Love For Crochet!

So we don't know about you, but we've always imagined that when you're the hottest star on the planet, you've bagged the hunkiest rocker around and you're pretty much just taking over the world with infectiously catchy pop tunes one day at a time it would just be none stop partying for Katy Perry but in actual fact she says that couldn't be farther from the truth.

The 'Roar' chart topping megastar has instead admitted that she's totally over partying like Miley Cyrus and instead loves nothing more than a friendly game of, wait for it, crochet!

Yup, you read that right, appearing on Alan Carr's Chatty Man, the reigning pop princess told an amused audience: “I do a bit of crocheting now; I know, I'm the biggest nana on the block.

“I was at Liberty yesterday and they have this big crocheting aisle – everyone else that's cool was in the designer clothes area and I was just like 'ooh look at all these yarns, I love it'.”

But there is method behind the madness as the singer explained it just helps her chill out before bed time.

“So I time myself at night now,  because it puts me in a relaxed state, instead of – you know, when we go to bed most times, the last thing we do is look at our phone right? And we fill our minds with like Miley Cyrus and Lindsay Lohan... twerking, all that, and all of a sudden you go to bed and have all these dreams and they're all like 'ahhhhh'. “So I thought maybe it'd be better for my subconscious and my dreaming just to like, do a bit of crocheting before I go to bed.”

Well who's have thought it, Katy Perry a die-hard knitter!

Meanwhile the singer released her brand spanking new single 'Unconditionally' this week as the second cut to be lifted from her fab new album 'PRISM' which topped the charts pretty much everywhere.

Last weekend Katy had a bit of a nightmare couple of days after being the centre of an extremely embarrassing lip-syncing fiasco at France's NRJ awards before battling through a pretty uncomfortable performance of her new single on The X Factor final.

Oh well, we still love her!
