After a screenshot of an expletive-filled message - supposedly sent from Katy Perry to a fan's ex boyfriend - went viral, it's been revealed that the screenshot was faked.
She told the crowd, "I'm on Whatsapp and I'm seeing all these messages about me. It says, 'Lol I heard she can't sing live at all'." She promptly took a selfie on the fan's phone, and sent it back - and there's video footage of the incident on YouTube.

What DIDN'T accompany the selfie, though, was the explicit message, "You thought I would never see this chat, you little dickless money. You have no balls, pussy. Cunt.". That, it transpires, was faked by a fan with too much spare time.
@katyperrylately I NEVER wrote those words, that is an EDITED picture or the person added it after I took it. I would NEVER use the C word.

@katyperry if anything it was supposed to make people laugh, not spread like wildfire through media. I apologize for any confusions.

@iwasdivine thank you for your apology.

So there we have it. Katy Perry didn't call someone a "cunt", OR a "dickless monkey." Apologies for doubting you Katy.
