Pregnant Katy Perry Jokes She'll Be the 'Cool Mom' from Mean Girls When Daughter Is a Teenager

Katy Perry isn't a regular mom — she's a cool mom.

In PEOPLE's latest cover story, the pregnant pop superstar, 35, opens up about her approach to motherhood. "I'm the three Fs. I'm fun, firm but fair," says Perry, whose sixth studio album, Smile, is out Aug. 28. "That's how I roll!"

Expecting a daughter with her fiancé Orlando Bloom any day now, Perry is certain she'll be the disciplinarian.

"He's gonna be the good cop and I'm gonna be the bad cop. I already know it," she says of the actor, 43. "It's gonna be fine. Maybe it'll turn for the teenage years and I'll get the teenage years."

"I'll be cool mom, you know? Like in Mean Girls, [I'll] be like, 'Heeey!' " Perry continues, shouting out queen bee Regina George's mom (played by Amy Poehler) in the 2004 iconic teen comedy.

"I was really terrified of the idea of that two or three years ago. It was just like, I don't know how I'm ever gonna do that. I can barely take care of myself," the "Firework" singer adds.

Before she found out she was expecting a girl, "I never once said out loud what I wanted," she says. "Being the first, you're just grateful that your body can do this and that it's healthy, but I am glad that it's in the cards for me."

And another added upside of having a daughter? "My clothes are secure!" Perry jokes. "They have found a spot for the future."
