Katy Perry has won a retraction from PEOPLE after the celebrity weekly claims that she warned girls not to date her ex-boyfriend, Travis McCoy and his band the Gym Class Heroes.

The magazine printed a corrected version of the story which confirmed that the singer was not referring to Travis but instead joking about Death Cab For Cutie singer Ben Gibbard.

“Girls if you feel me, if you’ve ever dated the lead singer from Death Cab For Cutie … this one goes out to him….To all of my upcoming relationships – one foot in, one foot out. He wants the milk but he never wants to buy the cow.”

On Tuesday, Katy wrote on her blog that she would never be so “tacky” as to mention Travis, adding that they are still friends.

“I don’t care if you make fun of me, my music, my zits, my cellulite or my bad choice of clothing… I really don’t. Just have some soul, and don’t LIE. I am not asking to be exempt from the media, I am just asking for some fucking fact checking.”
