Katy Perry’s controlling ex-husband
Katy Perry, in an interview with Vogue, opened up about her relationship with Russell Brand, describing him as someone who initially wanted an equal partnership. She stated, “At first when I met him he wanted an equal, and I think a lot of times strong men do want an equal, but then they get that equal and they’re like, ‘I can’t handle the equalness.’ He didn’t like the atmosphere of me being the boss on tour. So that was really hurtful, and it was very controlling, which was upsetting.” This sheds light on the power dynamics within their marriage.
