Katy Perry never has casual sex

Katy Perry never has casual sex.

The 'I Kissed a Girl' singer – who reconciled with her boyfriend, Gym Class Heroes rocker Travis McCoy in April after a four-month split - won't jump into bed with someone unless they have a "connection" and prefers to make lovers wait.

She said: "I'm not casual at all. I've always been into making a connection with someone. That's what it's all about for me. Besides, it's sexier to be mysterious and not give it away. I never hook up."

The 24-year-old beauty is so vehement with her beliefs she claims she won't even kiss someone unless they have been on a date.

She explained: "If I really like a person then I'll go on a date. But you'll never catch me just randomly making out with someone."

In March, Katy was spotted on a series of intimate dates with US singer-songwriter Josh Groban who she had previously named as her "most embarrassing crush".

Despite her sexual reservations, Katy admits she falls in love easily and has learnt a lot from her ex-boyfriends.

She added to Seventeen magazine: "I fall in love every time. I don't really fall in love a lot, but when I do, I fall hard. I've had about four boyfriends, and I fell in love with all of them – each of them served a purpose."
