Who Is Katy Perry With Right Now? The Singer’s Real and Rumored Boyfriends (PHOTOS)

Katy Perry reportedly dated Maroon 5 guitarist James Valentine at some point in 2009, at least according to Tim Jones, a member of the band Truth & Salvage Co. In an anecdote about the origins of the lyrics for their song “Old Piano,” Tim recalls, “[Katy Perry] was dating my friend James Valentine, who plays guitar in Maroon 5.” He goes on to describe how she contributed a line to the song — “singing the right words over the wrong melody” — while half asleep. If that’s not talent, we don’t know what is.
