Looks like Katy Perry’s next album might be released under the name Katy Brand. During the patriotic performer‘s appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today, Ellen asked the “Firework” songstress if she’d ever consider changing her name now that she’s married to Russell Brand. “Yes—I am, actually,” Perry (born Katy Hudson) blurted out.

Katy also discussed her and her husband’s penchant for just hanging out at home with their cats Kitty Purry, Morrissey and Krusty (“Krusty is Katy and Rusty, but meshed together.”). Ah, wedded bliss…
