While there were plenty of fans eager to spend some time with their pop idol, there was one in particular that caught Katy’s attention.

One superfan brought her dog along for the meet and greet, and the adorable pooch was decked out in an outfit that proclaimed ‘I love Katy Perry.’

The sentiment didn’t go unnoticed by the Roar singer, who took the time to meet with her human fans to give the pup some special attention.

He even went to give the super-fan dog a kiss before gratefully signing the pup’s outfit.

Katy Perry and the AFL appear to be at odds over which songs the American pop star will sing at the upcoming Grand Final in Melbourne.

The hitmaker was announced as the pre-match headliner for next weekend in July.

Appearing on SEN Breakfast on Monday, the veteran AFL journalist said Tom Morris claimed Katy’s team had rejected an AFL request for the Teenage Dream singer to perform just one new song.

While there were plenty of fans eager to spend some time with their pop idol, there was one in particular that caught Katy's attention.

“She’s going to play about five songs and the AFL was very interested in her playing five classic tunes, she wanted to play two new ones,” he said.

Tom added that both sides had come to an agreement and that Katy had reportedly only agreed to a new song.

‘They eventually met halfway and she played one new song and four classics,’ he said.

Co-host and AFL great Kane Cornes, admitting he was a Katy Perry fan, added that the AFL should have a say in planning the stadium extravaganza.

“The AFL says, ‘We only want your hits. We only want your hits. We only want your best stuff,'” he said.

He even went to give the super-fan dog a kiss before gratefully signing the pup's outfit.

“We want Roar, we want Teenage Dream, we want Firework. They want all the songs that we know and love. And she balked and said, ‘No, no, I want to play two of my new songs.'”

He added: “You know when you go to a concert and maybe they’re old and all you want is their good stuff. You just want their greatest hits.

“That’s what the AFL has asked Katy Perry to do. And she’s said, ‘Of course, I want to promote some of my new music.'”

Katy released her latest album 143 last week, which contains the controversial first single Woman’s World and the follow-up Lifetimes.

Katy will be performing at this weekend's AFL Grand Final between the Sydney Swans and the Brisbane Lions.
