'I am proud of my position as a boss, as a person that runs my own company,' Katy told Forbes. 

'I’m an entrepreneur… I don’t want to shy away from it. I actually want to kind of grab it by its balls.'

Katy recently wrapped her 151-date tour, and at the end of last month, she joined Madonna on stage during her Rebel Heart gig at The Forum in Los Angeles.
