'Teenage Dream' sensation Katy Perry has revealed that when she was younger she got suspended from school for inappropriate behaviour.

The songstress has been on a promotional tour in support of her debut concert movie, 'Part Of Me 3D', and when recently asked by film critic Jake Hamilton about her experience of being in full-time education, she admitted that she got into trouble for "humping a tree":

"When I was in sixth grade I was suspended from school for humping a tree. We were doing a play on Greek mythology and I was Aphrodite. My love interest was absent and so I used the tree as my partner."

She added that the sole reason that she got suspended was because "it was a Christian school."

Perry also appeared as a guest on ITV's Daybreak yesterday (July 4) and explained that she doesn't need a man to complete her anymore:

"I don't necessarily need the Prince Charming in order to have the happy ending, I can have the happy ending for myself at this point in time."
