Katy Perry: 'My divorce left me pretty f**ked, I couldn't get out of bed'

Pop beauty Katy Perry has revealed that her divorce from Russell Brand left her feeling very down and confused. 

Speaking to The Telegraph about the breakdown of her marriage, which led to her writing a new song called 'By The Grace Of God', the 'Roar' beauty explained that she couldn't get out of bed for a fortnight:

"I was in bed for about two weeks. I was pretty f**ked, yes. It hurt a lot - I got a good knock."

Referring to the song she wrote, which is on her new album 'Prism', Perry added: "The song is very autobiographical. I was down and out, I'd lost hope, all of my confidence had been shattered.Unfortunately, although I had a lot of outward self-identity, I didn't have the inner kind, I hadn't built that up."

'My self-worth was in someone else's hands, which is never a good idea, because it can be taken from you at any time. And it was, and it was shattered."
