The `One That Got Away` hitmaker was reduced to tears when there was a bomb scare while she was on tour last year, but police eventually discovered the source of the sniffer dogs` interest was actually some chicken left in a backpack near Katy`s dressing room. She told Interview magazine: "Right before I was supposed to go on stage there was a bomb threat. You know those bomb-sniffing dogs? They were everywhere. "They started sniffing a backpack near my dressing room. Well, they had to out me in an armoured car, and I started crying at one point ... but we found out at the end that it was chicken the dogs were sniffing." However, this isn`t the first time Katy - who split from husband Russell Brand in December - has feared being bombed. The 27-year-old star had a strict Christian upbringing and has previously admitted her pastor parents Keith and Mary Hudson banned her from reading any book other than the Bible and wouldn`t let her listen to non-religious music, and she was always scared she would be "bombed" if she went against their wishes. Katy recently said: "I didn`t have a childhood. Growing up, seeing Planned Parenthood, it was considered like the abortion clinic. "I was always scared I was going to get bombed when I was there. I didn`t know it was more than that, that it was for women and their needs. I didn`t have insurance, so I went there and I learned about birth control."
