Katy Perry has “moments of insecurity�.

The ‘I Kissed a Girl’ singer – who is engaged to Russell Brand – admits she is often shy and unsure of herself even though she it might seem otherwise.

“Even the most confident people still have their moments of insecurity. And even though I may come across as loud and bubbly and brimming with confidence, I can be a shy girl too.�

However, the 25 fights through her insecurities for her fans. She told more! magazine:

“For me, I wrote a lot of my songs in my hot little apartment and I didn’t think much of them – but then I started playing them in front of people and they were singing the songs back to me louder than I was singing them. It gives you goosebumps on your arms. It might sound cheesy, but I could swear that every artist would say that’s the most validating thing. Everything I do, I know it is for the fans and they are the reason why I exist.�

Katy – who is currently working a new album, due to be released later this year – recently admitted she was thrilled with how 2010 is panning out for her.

“Being in the studio again and making this new album is really great, and then to get the Grammy nomination while I was writing it was a really lovely boost of confidence and encouragement and then of course there’s my engagement! So yes, I would say it’s all going pretty well.�

Looking forward to hearing Katy's new CD. Hopefully she will be able to top last year's success.
