The Kooks' Luke Pritchard Hooks Up With Katy Perry In New York

April 15, 2009

The Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard has been pictured with Katy Perry in New York.

Reports claim Perry asked to be introduced to the singer after her performance at the city’s New York’s Irving Plaza.

“Katy was chatting to a record exec when she spied Luke,” a source told The Sun newspaper.

“She interrupted to ask, ‘Is that Luke from The Kooks?’ before excitedly heading over.”

Pritchard has previously been linked to Hollywood actress Mishca Barton.

As previously reported, The Kooks will play a one-off show in Leamington Spa on April 21.
