Russell Brand's signed book made Perry's heart blow away

Russell Brand's writing charm really worked with Katy Perry, UK comedian wrote a very touching adn romantic message in a copy of his book specially for her.

The couple first met at the MTV Video Music Awards last year where they were both presenters.

The 'California Gurls' singer did not accept Brand's offer for a ride home after the New York ceremony and instead asked for a personalised edition of his memoir 'My Booky Wook' after noticing it in the back of his car.

Russell's romantic dedication had Perry amazed. She shared, "Russell had a copy of his book in the car and I was intrigued. I asked him to sign it, and when I got home I read what he wrote 'You are a mermaid, and I am drowning'."

Katy Perry: 'I don't care about Russell's drug addiction!'

She admits her friends were completely shocked at the speed at which their romance progressed.

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine, she shared, "Some people were like, 'Whoa, marriage so soon - your whole life!' But Russell has really made me more stable. I'm burning at such incredible speed that I need someone stronger than me."

And Perry is not concerned about Russell's past reputation related to drug addiction and sex incidents. She continued, "(Russell Brand) has never given me any reason to doubt him. A difficult past is part of my dad's testimony too. I think Russell is a great example of how you can change. Beyond his addiction, he's a sensitive person, and emotional like a lot of good actors. He's sweet and lovely."

Russell Brand and Katy Perry are planning to marry later this year.
