Katy Perry's West Ham tribute to Russell Brand at the MTV Awards – Daily Gossip

Welcome to the Daily Gossip: your daily stop-off to find out who in the world of music has been up to what.

Today's top gossip:

Katy Perry wore a myriad of racy costumes as she hosted the MTV Awards in Berlin last night (November 5) – not least a custom-made corset donned with West Ham United badges.

The singer was presumably wearing the garment as a tribute to her new boyfriend Russell Brand, who is an avid fan of the team. She also had the word 'Rusty' written across her bum, again alluding to Brand (he writes on Twitter under the name Rustyrockets). However, in an interview prior to the awards, Perry admitted that Brand had asked her not to be too revealing during the ceremony. "As far as he's concerned, the more clothing the better," she said. "Sadly for him I'm going naughty tonight" (Daily Mirror).
