John Mayer has opened up about his recent Katy Perry collaboration 'Who You Love', and says the 'Roar' singer was a complete professional during the recording process.

The pair teamed up on the song for John's latest album 'Paradise Valley', after going public with their romance earlier this year.

"I had this idea that just sat around for a while and I thought, 'Maybe I'll finish it someday', and I played it for Don Was who was producing the record with me and he said, 'Get Katy to sing on it!'"
