Russell Brand Cuts Out Religious Humor for Katy Perry2011-01-19

Katy Perry married Russell Brand in India last year, and as the daughter of two Christian ministers, she says her hubby is respectful when it comes to her religious beliefs.

She said: "Russell has made very blasphemous jokes in the past, but he's making fewer all the time because he knows that I am very sensitive about this subject.”

Katy, 26, also criticized Madonna for staging a mock crucifixion on stage for her ‘Confessions’ world tour in 2006 and admitted she can’t understand why it seems to be acceptable to poke fun at Christianity.

She added: "You can be frivolous and fun without needing to get involved in that. And I don't know why that only happens to the Christian religion. I don't see people simulating sex with statues of Buddha, for example.

"For me, spirituality is something very important and I don't like it when people take it lightly. At times, I don't understand why there are artists who play that card, like when Madonna gets up on a cross to sing."
