Katy Perry - Perry: 'I'm Not Engaged'

KATY PERRY has blasted reports she is engaged to her longterm boyfriend TRAVIS MCCOY, insisting the GYM CLASS HEROES frontman did not propose in Paris, France.

MCCoy, who has been dating the singer since last year (07), reportedly popped the question during a recent romantic break to the French capital by kissing the star with a diamond ring in his mouth.

But the I Kissed A Girl singer has chastised the New York newspaper that started the rumour.

In a posting entitled "From the horse's mouth", written on her blog on Wednesday (17Dec08), she proclaims, "NOT engaged! But thanks for the free press, New York Daily News!

"You should fact check with the source before you spread world-wide news like that."

Perry received a yellow diamond promise ring from her partner this summer (08) and was subsequently forced to deny engagement rumours after she was spotted wearing the gem.
