"Katy wants kids as soon as possible," a Perry pal tells Radar – even if Diplo doesn't turn out to be the one.
"She's not talking about new boyfriends so much as finding a guy who can get her pregnant without expecting marriage," the friend explains.
The cunning pop superstar also sees a new baby as the perfect career move.
"If she goes through with this, it will be as much a publicity stunt as anything else in her career," the insider says. "As she admits to her friends all the time, she is addicted to attention!"
