While Conan paused as he rolled back in his chair with a straight face in surprise, she went on to add: “She’s very mature.”
The actor described the moment as unexpected but not unwelcome. When asked to elaborate further, Kendrick joked about the situation, suggesting her outfit at the time had her ‘kind of asking for it’.
She quipped: “If nobody had done it, I would’ve been a little sad.”
The conversation continued with the host asking her to ‘paint the scene’, with Kendrick responding in a light-hearted tone while recalling the encounter.
She added: “I have met her before, and she’s like … she’s aggressive. I like it.”
The case is very different for Ruby Rose, though. The Orange is the New Black and Batwoman actor has accused Perry of sexually assaulting her nearly 20 years ago at Spice Market nightclub in Melbourne, Australia.
In a post on social media, she wrote: “Katy Perry sexual [sic] assaulted me at spice market nightclub in Melbourne. Who gives a s**t what she thinks.”
