Katy Perry is one of the most iconic judges on reality TV. (She certainly beats Len Goodman, if you ask us...)

19-year old contestant, Benjamin Glaze hit the show armed with nothing but his guitar. He then revealed that he'd never actually kissed a girl before, so someone with plenty of knowledge in that field, helped him out.
The 'Firework' singer beckoned him over to give her a quick peck on the cheek, and after 'doing it wrong' the first time, Katy caught Benjamin out by turning her head quickly, and planting a big ol' kiss on his lips.
