On social media, Ms Kandelaki wrote: ‘Once I was invited to a private party with Katy Perry, where she was pretty drunk, and she apparently fancied me as she was trying it on pretty strongly.
‘I managed to fight back and am pleased to say that all my fitness training was not in vain, but then Katie instantly found herself a new victim (to my shock again female) for kisses, embracing and dirty dances.’
The TV presenter added that she did not view herself as a victim at the time but memories of Perry’s allleged harassment continued to haunt her.
Kandelaki – who did not disclose the date the alleged leching took place – believes there are others who have been subjected to unrequited advances from the American singer.
