If Katy Perry and Christina Aguilera ever found themselves in the unlikely situation of a sing-off, Perry says that maybe — just maybe — she can use her background in gospel to take on the blond pop star on known for her strong vocal abilities.


“If Christina Aguilera wanted to have a run-off, I could maybe muster up that soul, that gospel that I grew up in,” she told MTV UK. Perry, whose parents are evangelical Christian preachers, grew up in the church. But, ultimately, the “I Kissed a Girl” singer admits that even with gospel in her soul, she can’t compete with Aguilera’s killer pipes. “No, I can’t,” she admitted.

Another collaboration the 23-year-old burgeoning pop star — who just released the video for her next single “Hot N Cold,” in which she plays a runaway bride — doesn’t see happening anytime soon is one with her boyfriend, Gym Class Heroes frontman Travis McCoy. But, she wasn’t talking marriage — she just doesn’t see them making music together anytime soon. “I think they have their lane and I have mine,” she said, adding, “He’s got responsibilities to a bunch of other people and his band, and I kind of am solo.”
But if anything musical were to happen between Perry and her beau McCoy, she feels it would be a duet between just the two of them — the rest of the Gym Class Heroes wouldn’t be invited to the party. “So if we did it, I think it would be him and I,” she explained. “But don’t ever [rule out] anything.”
