Katy Perry has taken to Twitter to slam The Daily Telegraph for republishing an old interview talking about her ex-hubby, Russell Brand.

Over the weekend, the paper put out an article which appeared to be a fresh interview with K-Pez, where she revealed that she hasn’t spoken to the funnyman since their divorce in 2011.

During the chat, the ‘Teenage Dream’ singer was quoted as saying: “He hasn’t spoken to me since he texted me saying he was filing for divorce.

“I don’t want to talk about him — my songs will say what I need to say.”

However, Perry later tweeted that the interview was in fact old, naming and shaming The Daily Telegraph and journalist, Chris Knowles.

The 30-year old wrote: “It's really inappropriate when journalists repurpose interviews done 3 yrs ago in context of promoting a film & then stamp a new date on it.”

Katy then posted a thumbs-down emoji, along with the comment: “The Daily Telegraph & Chris Knowles.”

Perry’s fans soon tracked down who they thought was Knowles on Twitter, with an Australian journalist soon taking to the social-network site to set the record straight.

Posting a snap go himself, he wrote: “Hi @Twitter I'm not the Chris Knowles who @katyperry is talking about. I'm an NYC forecaster. Thank you.”

This is how we do
This is how we do

Sipping on Rosé
Silver Lake sun coming up all lazy (this is how we do)
Slow cooking pancakes for my boy
Still up, still fresh as a daisy
Playing ping pong all night long
Everything's all neon and hazy (this is how we do)
Chanel this, Chanel that
Hell yeah, all my girls vintage Chanel, baby

It's no big deal
It's no big deal
It's no big deal
This is no big deal

This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting
Yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting
Yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do

Big hoops, and maroon lips
My clique hopping in my Maserati (this is how we...)
Santa Barbara-chic at La Super Rica
Grabbing tacos, checking out hotties
Now we talkin' astrology
Getting our nails did all Japanese-y (this is how we do)
Day drinking at the Wildcat
Sucking real bad at Mariah Carey-oke

It's no big deal
It's no big deal, uh-uh
It's no big deal
This is no big deal

This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting
Yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting
Yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do

This one goes out to ladies
At breakfast in last night's dress
(It's how we do, straight stunting like that)
Uh-huh, I see you
Yo, this goes out to all you kids
That still have their cars at the club valet
And it's Tuesday
(It's how we do, straight stunting like that)
Yo, shoutout to all you kids
Buying bottle service with your rent money!
Respect!

This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting
Yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do
This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting
Yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
This is how we do

(This is how we do)
This goes out to all you people
Going to bed with a 10, and waking up with a 2
(This is how we do)
Ha, not me!

This is how we do, yeah
Chilling, laid-back, straight stunting
Yeah, we do it like that
This is how we do, do-do-do-do
What? Wait
No no no no, bring the beat back
That's right
This is how we do
Uh-oh
This is how we do
Uh-oh
