Pop star Katy Perry is the latest beauty to fall for the charms of comic Russell Brand - she was reportedly whisked away on a romantic trip to Thailand with the British funnyman.

The pair was rumored to have hooked up at last month's MTV Video Music Awards in New York. However, things heated up after Brand sent the I Kissed A Girl star a poem, and when asked to reply with an equally melodic verse, Perry sent back a snap of her cleavage emblazoned with the words 'poem'.

And the duo got on so well, they decided to jet to Thailand for a romantic break, according to Britain's The Sun newspaper.

A source tells the publication, "Russell has fancied Katy for ages. When they were both in New York for the music awards, Russell finally got his chance to work his charm on her. Katy knows his bad boy reputation but could not resist - especially when Russell sent a love poem with a note attached saying, 'Please send me a poem back.'"

"Russell killed himself laughing when Katy sent a photo of her boobs with the word 'poem' scrawled across them. The next minute Russell picked up the phone and invited her to Thailand for a secret getaway."
