Katy Perry has admitted she’s ‘grateful she’s not a drug addict’ as she opens up about the ‘dark days’ she’s faced. The singer has been open about dealing with depression, and has revealed she’s in a ‘really good place’ as she prepares to release her upcoming album in August. ‘The album so far is about the journey, I think Never Worn White is very right now but there’s gonna be a lot of songs that talk about the past and the highs and lows to get there,’ she said. ‘There were some pretty dark days, I think that was pretty evident on my last record, what I was going through publicly…It was very intense, I got very depressed.’ Katy, who’s expecting her first child with fiancé Orlando Bloom, added to The Daily Telegraph’s JMO Confidential
