Katy Perry ‘dating agent’

Katy Perry has reportedly struck up a romance with an agent.

The popstar is said to be dating Los Angeles based entertainment agent Michael Kives.

Sources have revealed that Katy and Michael have moved things on from being just friends following her split from John Mayer earlier this year.

"Katy and Michael have been hooking up. They were friends first, but Katy leaned on Michael for emotional support after her break-up with John," an insider told America's Star magazine.

"It's more of a sexual thing for her rather than a heavy-duty relationship."

Katy sees things with Michael as a rebound relationship and has allegedly told him she isn't ready to settle down.

Michael, on the other hand, is said to be hoping that Katy will eventually want something more from the romance.

"Michael is having a blast with her. He's been bragging to all his friends about Katy, and he's holding out hope that she will want to get serious," they continued.

"He would love for her to be The One."

It may be a while before Katy fully commits to Michael. The Firework singer reportedly still has feelings for musician John and has been calling him to talk about her feelings.

"She is still calling John because she can't let go. And he still reaches out to her too because he loves to string his exes along," the source finished.
