MIS-MATCH: Katy Perry and ... Tim Tebow?

Will Katy Perry rebound from a recovering sexaholic atheist by dating an all-American, Christian quarterback? Yes, she'll be dating Denver Broncos star Tim Tebow if her parents have any say in it: “Katy’s mom firmly believes the best cure for heartache is to quickly fall in love again,” an unnamed source tells OK!

"In her mind, Tebow is the perfect guy for her daughter. He’s handsome, charming, intelligent and, above all, a good Christian.” Perry's conservative Christian parents don't approve of divorce, but are secretly thrilled over her split with British comedian Russell Brand. They've even invited Tebow to speak at their church, another source says. Plus Katy has "mentioned on more than one occasion how much she likes Tim.” As for Tebow, he's keeping quiet about the gossip but tells USA Today that he has no gal because he's "too busy with football and life and … it's hard."

DAMAGE CONTROL: Katy Perry Speaks OUT!

Katy Perry spoke out for the first time since her divorce from Russell Brand was announced, tweeting an apparent reprimand to her parents on Saturday. "Concerning the gossip, I want to be clear that NO ONE speaks for me. Not a blog, magazine, 'close sources' or my family," she wrote. (Her parents had said that her divorce was God's way of getting more people into church.) Perry also tweeted that the "love and support" from fans has made her "heart happy again."

TMZ reports that parents Keith and Mary Hudson abided by her wishes, making no mention of their daughter's divorce during yesterday's sermon. Keith Hudson did, however, make a joke about the paparazzi: "I know the bishop asked all the first-time visitors to stand, but I'd like to ask all the press to stand," he said. "We want to locate you. ... We want to get you saved, so you can write good stuff! Amen!"

FIREWORKS: Hindu Leaders Not Happy With Katy, Russell!

Hollywood was probably impressed that Russell Brand's marriage to Katy Perry lasted an entire 14 months—but Hindu leaders, not so much, the New York Daily News reports. Brand and Perry married in a Hindu ceremony in Rajasthan, India, and as such, "they should have taken marriage more seriously as it is a sacred rite in Hinduism," the president of the Universal Society of Hinduism tells WENN. "If celebrities opt for a Hindu wedding, they should be prepared to adhere to the commitment, devotion, responsibility, sanctity, and morals which are attached to it." Meanwhile, Perry and Brand are either "happy, sad, relieved, sideswiped, or depressed on any given day," depending on which article you read, writes Luke Malone on Jezebel.

Case in point: The Sun claims that Perry is crying on Rihanna's shoulder in the wake of her split while Brand is doing "all right." But the Mirror has Perry partying quite happily with a "mystery man" on New Year's Eve as a sad Brand spent the evening alone.
