Rihanna has revealed Russell Brand and Katy Perry's wedding plans.

During a radio interview the couple's pop star friend, who is organising the hen party, said that they will marry in India at the end of this year.


Tying the knot: Russell Brand and Katy Perry's wedding plans have been revealed

The Umbrella singer also confirmed the pressure of making Katy's last night as a single lady one to remember.

She told US radio DJ Ryan Seacrest during an interview on his Kiis FM show: "I have to come up with something cool because she's getting married in India so I'm like 'Okay, now what do I do to match that?'"

"That's at the end of the year so we've got some time to plan that."

Russell Brand, 34, proposed to Miss Perry, 25, on New Year's Eve, during a romantic trip to India's Taj Rambagh Palace hotel.

The couple, who had been dating for just four months when the comedian popped the question, are expected to have a star-studded wedding.

Brand's close pals include Jonathan Ross, David Walliams, Morrissey and Noel Gallagher.

As well as Rihanna, Perry's guest list is expected to include American pop star Taylor Swift.

Russell Brand hasn't been shying away from the wedding preparations either and has even been seen posing in a wedding dress and veil.


Bridezilla: Russell plays dress up

With his mouth wide open and one finger in the air, the long-haired comedian looked strangely comfortable in his white lacy outfit.

The picture was posted on Twitter by his fiancé - just days after she claimed he was obsessed with weddings.

She said: "He's a total bridezilla. He's like a freak. He's always buying bride magazines.

"Every time we go out for breakfast, he's like 'Can we just stop and get a bride magazine?'"

We can't wait to see the wedding pictures.
