(Feb. 8) - "There's not a lot of people that actually live through Warped tour. I think there were a lot of bets on the table that I was going to die," Katy Perry tells Popeater on the red carpet of the Clive Davis Pre-Grammy soiree. "[But] I lived and I have a couple of nice beefy scars from it,and it's one of those things where I was so happy I actually went on that tour because I learned the hard knocks. I felt like G.I. Jane afterwords. It was the hardest thing I?ve ever done."

Until now, apparently, because Perry admits that playing the Grammys with the likes of U2, Paul McCartney, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Radiohead, Robert Plant, and more, will be more challenging than Warped. "Harder will be tomorrow, most definitely. I will have a feeling in my stomach that I don?t get too often because I don?t really get nervous, but tomorrow I will have some butterflies."
