In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, he said: ‘I don’t feel like I’m in a celebrity relationship. For the first time in my life I don’t feel like I’m in a celebrity relationship. I know it is high profile.

Meanwhile Katy’s daring dress may have been revealing but it did comply with a memo from bosses at CBS, which screened the awards.

A Wardrobe Advisory warned that body exposure would not be tolerated at the event.

The requirements specifically instruction to ‘avoid sheer see-through clothing that could possibly expose female breast nipples.’
