Teen Vogue cover

Perry appears on the cover of the May 2012 issue of Teen Vogue magazine. She talks about how she still gets excited, her movie, and whether Justin Bieber’s Never Say Never or Madonna’s Truth or Dare inspire her.

A little. Madonna is everything to me, and that movie is amazing because it caught her at a time when she was a bit more vulnerable. I wanted to do that too, to capture a snapshot of who I am now so that I can remind myself what I’ve lost if I ever do become totally jaded. [Laughs]
