It takes a lot to scare tough girl Katy Perry, but David Blaine knew just the trick.
The talented magician invited the 29-year-old singer on to his new programme David Blaine: Real or Magic and the clip that was released on Friday shows her screaming in terror as he pulled an alligator out of her handbag.
'That wasn't in my purse, oh my God,' squealed the I Kissed A Girl star as she flung her hands over her face in both shock and delight.

Its magic: Katy Perry anxiously waited to see what tricks David Blaine had up his sleeve when she appeared on his latest ABC show
ETOnline has a sneak peak of the scaly encounter that airs on the ABC special on Tuesday, showing Perry's hilarious reaction to the master illusionist's trick.
The pair were filming on a rooftop in where appears to be New York City, when Blaine asked Katy: 'Do you want me to make a rabbit appear out of your purse?'
'Preferably a rabbit, bunny, Shetland pony...' quipped the Grammy winner, who wore a yellow, blue and green bohemian dress for the outdoor shoot.

Gator time: The trick made Katy squeal as it was far from the fluffy bunny encounter that she had been expecting
'There is literally nothing in it - well, actually,' said the world record-breaking magician, and plucked out a grey striped alligator that he held up proudly.
'That wasn't in my purse, oh my God!' screamed Katy, totally confused about how he pulled off the master illusion.
While it didn't look full grown, the gator was a few feet long and no doubt had a set of sharp teeth inside its long snout.
It is definitely real: David had Katy test out a drinking glass by sipping out of it
Snack time: He then takes a nibble as Katy looks on entranced
Marveled: Katy couldn't believe her eyes when Blaine actually started eating the glass
The ingenious trick came after New York-born Blaine had already freaked out the Roar singer by enjoying a very sharp snack.
After having her drink from a glass of water to check it was genuine - 'That's a real glass for sure,' she verified - David began chomping away at it.
'You should really see someone about that,' said a enamoured Perry as she watched him bite down into the glass and chew the shards.
Good humoured: The Roar singer definitely saw the funny side of the grisly trick, 'You should really see someone about that,' she quipped
Concern: Katy was worried that the magician would cut his mouth on the shards
'You guys are missing this!,' she shouted to the crew. 'He's eating my glass. The boyfriend I always wanted,' Russell Brand's ex-wife then joked.
Making sure to be motherly despite her disgust, Katy then carefully wiped the illusionist's face.'That might be blood, but I don't know if you actually bleed like the rest of us. OK, lets not do that anymore, I'm scared now,' she admitted.
Currently in Germany promoting her new album, Prism, Perry is the latest in a string of celebrity magic fans who have been guests on the show, including Jamie Foxx, Bryan Cranston, Aaron Paul, Ricky Gervais, Woody Allen and Robert De Niro.
David Blaine: Real or Magic airs in the US on November 19 at 9:30 p.m. on ABC.
