Newlyweds KATY PERRY and RUSSELL BRAND rejected a string of lucrative offers to sell theirwedding photos to the press, because they feared it would only lead to further media intrusion into their lives.
The I Kissed a Girl hitmaker wed the outlandish Brit in a lavish ceremony in India last month (Oct10) and hired burly security guards to keep the paparazzi out.
Brand reveals they were inundated with picture deals from top magazines, but ultimately decided against sharing one of their most intimate moments with the world.
The comedian tells U.S. newsman Larry King, "They offered us money to sell the photos, but once you've sold the photos to the wedding, how can you go, 'Oh, give us privacy!' We kept them private and normal."
