Sometimes, magical dreams do come true.

As a kid, Katy Perry used to pray as a child to have big boobs.

The "Hot N Cold" singer tells the Sun (UK): "I remember vividly kneeling by my bed as a nine-year-old, saying my prayers and asking God to give me boobs that were so big that if I laid on my back I wouldn't be able to see my feet.

"Eventually that request was granted."

Yes. Yes it was. All the better for all.

Katy Perry runs a quick check on her prized assets.

"A bit of divine intervention displays the power of prayer," she reflects. "Every time before I go on stage, or go out where I know there will be a lot of press, I take a skipping rope and spend about 10 minutes, fully clothed, skipping.

"I look like Rocky. This way I can ensure that everything is in place and I won't have a wardrobe malfunction. Don't want those boulders doing a show of their own."

It's a lesson the Lindsay Lohan types of the world have yet to learn.
