Niall Horan has responded to Katy Perry's claims that the former One Direction hunk is constantly trying to get her number.

Earlier this week, Perry, 32, opened up about her time as a guest judge on The X Factor in 2010 in which Horan participated.

Perry's deciding vote pushed Horan forward in the competition, where he was later grouped with Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne and Zayn Malik to form One Direction.

The pop songstress had said that the 23-year-old was “always trying to like, get my number, to like, maybe flirt with me, but I'm like, 'I could babysit you. I'm like your mom!'”

Horan has now responded to Perry's flirting claims during his appearance on Australian TV show The Project, reported Us magazine.

“Katy, please stop being mean to me,” he joked, ”She's just finding any excuse now to just patronise me and go around spreading rumours about me. I just want to be your friend!”

He added that their age difference nine years isn't that drastic. “I mean, she is talking like she is about 55 years older than me. She is not that much older than me.”
