KATY Perry is getting a new car!

The singer — who recently divorced husband Russell Brand — was seen test-driving a white Maserati in Los Angeles yesterday.

The Firework hitmaker looked unimpressed and tried to cover her face when she was snapped out and about in the expensive vehicle, reports British newspaper The Sun.

Recent reports claimed Katy is being comforted by a hunky dancer following her split from Russell.

“During the tour last year, Katy became extremely close to her band and backing dancers,” a source said. “They all lived in each other’s pockets and everyone knew how much Katy was suffering — not least of all Malik.

“Throughout her trip to India, Katy spent a lot of time with him the pair would often stay up late into the night chatting and drinking in the hotel bar. When they were dancing on stage together, it was clear she only had eyes for him.

“In sound check on the day of the last show, the pair started falling about in fits of giggles over a private joke. It was as if they were a couple. Malik shot her cheeky winks across the stage and showered her with hugs. Katy was clearly loving the attention.”

Despite the chemistry between Katy and Malik, friends say the pair have not taken their relationship further yet.

“They insist they are just good friends but their closeness has set tongues wagging in the camp,” said the source.
