Katy Perry’s pooch gets a Bon Appetit for fame

NOT content with her own world-conquering career, Katy Perry has pushed her pooch into the limelight.

Little Nugget — a teacup poodle — has landed a starring role in a bank card advert.

Sharing the news in a tongue in cheek press release for the project, Nugget wrote: ‘I’ve travelled from stage to stage with Katy but it’s time to take my solo career to the next level and ride my own wagging tail.

‘I’m as happy as a hound dog chasing a gut truck to be launching this new campaign with Citi. It finally puts me on the pedestal on which I belong.’

Katy also shared a picture and video of Nugget speed-dating with a couple of lookalike pals (pictured top).

‘‪Nugget goes speed dating in NYC!’ she wrote. ‘Thank you to @poochofnyc &@littlefreddietinkles for showing my lil lady a good time 🍒🐶#bonappetit.’
