Describing himself as 'under the thumb', he continued: 'f she says don't wear that shirt, I don't wear it.'
Despite the star-studded guest list and glamorous location, Russell insists his nuptials were just like anybody's else's wedding day.
He explained: 't was just normal. It's like a normal wedding. Everyone gets all worked up about showbiz and celebrity, but other than the bit where you're on the TV or you're singing a song, it's normal. It's just a normal marriage.'
The 'Get Him to the Greek' star also denied he gave Katy a tiger on their wedding day, adding: ''m a vegetarian, you don't give people tigers, it's stupid, it's dangerous, and the tigers don't like it.'
