Singer Katy Perry is suffering from chronic knee pain and has taken to having acupuncture three times a week in a bid to save her ailing joints.
The 30-year-old, who performed her ballad "By the grace of god" at the Grammy Awards Feb 8, said her constant performing has taken its toll on her body, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
