Fame is disgusting: Kate Perry

London, April 6 (IANS) Singer Katy Perry finds fame disgusting and says she is sick of being in the public eye.

The 27-year-old loves her job, but hates the exposure that comes with it.

"I am tired of being famous already! But I'm not tired of creating. Fame is, I think, just a disgusting by-product of what I do," she told teenvogue.com. "It's quite a delicate creature. It can love you, and then it can attack you."

Perry insists she wants fans to see her as a normal person.

"I still want to be as approachable and relatable as possible. When I meet fans and they're crying, I'll say, 'Calm down, there's nothing to cry about. I'm not going to bite you or attack you or grant you three wishes. Let's just hang out and have a good time'," she said.

"But really, I stopped focusing on what other people think a while ago. If you try to be everything to everyone, you'll only end up completely confused," she added.
