Katy Perry is getting sticky and sweet for Seventeen's September issue. Love that bubble!

The pop singer, who is no doubt every bit the teenage dream, opens up about fiance and comedian Russell Brand. Perry tells the mag:

"I think he taught me a lot about inner beauty and confidence in myself. I don't really feel pretty ever, without makeup. I feel ugly. And so I would have to sleep with makeup on, or feel ugly and gross. He looks beyond all of that, which is such a win, because I've never felt that with anybody. He's in love with the person inside of me, and the outside of me is just a bonus."

However, Miss Perry admits there were definitely hesitations when it came to hooking up with such a wild and crazy guy. She adds:

"He changed my mind about him the moment I met him. I said 'You are a better person than how you are portrayed. He's a very spiritual person, and I'm constantly struggling with the idea of being spiritual and material."

We love this California girl. Adorable!
