Man Who Katy Perry Kissed on 'American Idol' Says the Controversial Moment Made Him Uncomfortable

The new American Idol reboot premiered just less than a week ago and it's already brewing controversy. Contestant Benjamin Glaze unexpectedly got the chance to kiss Katy Perry—and he did not like it.

During the show's premiere, Glaze explained to the judges before his audition that he liked his job as a cashier because it allowed him to meet a lot of "cute girls." “Have you kissed a girl and liked it?” American Idol judge Luke Bryan asked in reference to Perry’s hit single from 2008. "No, I’ve never been in a relationship. I can’t kiss a girl without being in a relationship," the 19-year-old said. His response caught the attention of Perry, who nudged him to walk to the judges' panel. Glaze proceeded to kiss the singer but it wasn't enough for her. She then asked for another one, but instead of kissing him on the cheek, Perry went in for his lips.
