Katy Perry: I’m not engaged to Travis McCoy

Singer sets the record straight on blog.

Katy Perry has rubbished rumours she’s to wed long-term boyfriend Travis McCoy.

US reports claimed the Gym Class Heroes star proposed during a romantic trip to Paris.

But Katy, 24, says the story was inaccurate.

‘NOT engaged!’ she writes on her blog. ‘But thanks for the free press New York Daily News!

'You should fact check with the source before you spread world wide news like that.’

Travis gave Katy a diamond promise ring in the summer.

PCM Exclusive Concert Pic

While we were covering The 2008 Warped Tour at Susquehanna Bank Center in Camden, NJ. We caught a performance by Katy Perry. Perry (whose single, "I Kissed A Girl," is number one on the charts right now) took to the stage around 6PM. Her stage presence and set is totally adorable. She certainly has a unique look to her with her retro clothes. Guess who else we spotted there? The frontman of Gym Class Heroes, Travis McCoy, was spotted on the side of her stage watching her perform. It looks like she could be singing to him in this picture! The two have been publicly dating since December 2007. They're so cute!

Gym Class Heroes Frontman Arrested

7/2 UPDATE: Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy, defends his friend Travis' actions.

The bassist wrote on his blog defending his friend and writing about the person who was heckling the GCH lead singer at his concert, "you know what? you call my friend a “n_gger”, i dont even give a f*** what happens to you. i dont want to see you in this scene. i dont want to see you at shows. you are who we write songs about. you are who we think about when we hate. radiohead, karma police over and over again in my head. what a joke. you are f****** pathetic and anyone that disagrees should put their white hood on too. i dont want your ticket money. i dont want your cd sales. id rather be poor and unknown. i am angrier than i have been in a long time. hate upon hate upon hate.

Travis McCoy, the lead singer of The Gym Class Heroes, was arrested on Tuesday for one charge of third-degree assault.

At a St. Louis stop on The Warped Tour happening now, McCoy and crew had just finished the first song when an audience member near the front row called the lead singer a “f****** ignorant n*****.”

McCoy reportedly reached down and hit the heckler on the head repeatedly with his microphone. He issued an apology for his violent reaction and said it wasn’t representative of him as a person.

“I’m sorry. But when someone calls you something that ignorant and that offensive, you have to bash their head in with a microphone,” said McCoy. Can you really even blame him?
