It seems like Katy Perry is everywhere these days -- not only is the pop tart on the cover of Maxim's January issue, (looking better than ever, we might add), but she also appears on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today, and here's a sneak peek at what you can expect from the sexy songbird. Katy reveals that she's in the process of changing her name, and she babbles on about what a "handful" her husband Russell Brand can be. When asked if she ever goes by Mrs. Brand, Katy replied, "I do actually. Sometimes when people try to get my attention. Like if I'm at an event or something like that and they want special attention. They go, "Mrs. Brand!" and I go shwoosh [looks back]."

Ellen notes that Russell appears to be a bit of a handful and Katy quips, "Yeah, but handfuls are also a lot of fun. There's never a dull moment ... He's a smorgasbord of things. A sense of humor is really important in our household. That's how we de-stress and we like to have a laugh."
