Perry revealed last week on Chelsea Handler's podcast "Dear, Chelsea" that she has been living in Kentucky. She called it an "amazing experience" to live outside the Hollywood "bubble."
"I'm like, living in Kentucky, and I have for almost a month now," Perry said. "And that's quite an amazing experience, because it reminds you that Hollywood is not America."
