Cilmi denies Perry jibes

Gabriella Cilmi says she never said Katy Perry did not deserve her Best International Female Brit Award, despite reports to that effect.

Aussie singing star Gabriella Cilmi has said she didn't diss Katy Perry back in February, despite reports to that effect. In that month, Perry claimed the Best International Female Brit Award that they were both nominated for alongside Beyonce, Pink and Santigold, and it was claimed that Cilmi had said that Perry didn't deserve to win.

Speaking to Take 5 magazine, Cilmi said: "I never actually said that. I can cope with Katy winning an award. I won six ARIA awards in Australia and all these people were saying I didn't deserve it, so I wouldn't do that to anyone else. I hope she doesn't try to get me. I'm not worried though. I wear a lot of rings on my fingers - you don't want to mess with me!"
