Katy Perry Sheds Her Innocence With S&M Shoot

When we think of Katy Perry, we think of a naturally sexy girl with an innocent, quirky persona. But Complex Magazine has captured Katy in a different light for its June/July issue. Not only does she say that T.I. is “really cute” and her boyfriend Travis McCoy was “always a butt guy until he met me,” but Katy also says goodbye to colorful sundresses and pink bows and hello to S&M brassieres, booty shorts, thigh-high stockings and handcuffs. Of the photo shoot, Katy says:

It’s a bit of a darker side of me, a little S&M. Though I did have to hang from a cage, which could have easily gone wrong with the five-inch heels I was wearing.

Ka-ching! Katy Perry looking like an S&M Cleopatra? It’s money in the bank.
