The Newcastle native was given a fantastic 48th birthday present when the I Kissed A Girl hitmaker serenaded him, saying: ‘Come here… Let me loosen your tie a little bit.’
As she was lifted into the crowd, Katy was forced to bat away an overzealous member of the audience: ‘Down boy, down boy, down!’
‘I’m pretty sure there are some parents in here,’ she began. ‘Whose kids are very angry at you right now. They don’t know what Boeing is but they know what a Katy Perry is.
‘So if you don’t have fun for them… You are letting them down. Don’t let them children down. They will torture you for weeks.’
She went on: ‘Mike you’re looking right into my heart. Can I ask you, have you ever had a pop star dedicate a song to you?’
Katy teasingly mocked his Geordie accent before thanking him for his work in Afghanistan and performing the hit song Birthday as a tribute to him.
