Katy and Russell divorcing was a sad story. There were many problems, and they were not right for each other. In general, one of the biggest problems was that Russell was in love with Katy's on-stage persona, and not the real person.
I am nervous about Katy and John Mayer. In my life, I have known a lot of women like Katy (and often had unrequited crushes on them), and I have known a lot of men like John. Unfortunately, when they would get together, it never ended well.
This is going to be hard to find, but I think Katy's best match would be someone who is not a celebrity, and someone who does not listen to her music. The problem is, she won't know if a non-celebrity truly loves her, or is after her money. And finding someone who doesn't listen to her music will be hard, given her level of popularity.
To answer your questions, in my personal opinion:
Katy Perry actually isn't THAT good looking under all that make up (he exposed her as a fraud by putting that pic on Twitter)
I have seen many beautiful pictures of Katy with little or no makeup. I am glad that she is now going for a more natural look that enhances her natural beauty, rather than hides it.
and she isn't THAT talented.
I personally think Katy has a very beautiful and very versatile voice. The thing is, not all of her big hits necessarily showcase her voice. Try listening to some of her ballads. I think that her power ballads are what work best for her voice. Katy's voice has a very soft and sweet quality, but also a lot of power, so it's perfect for power ballads. I recommend "Unconditionally", and "By The Grace of God".
Does she really write all her own songs??
Yes, she does. Her songs are straight from her heart. The first song she wrote was called "Trust In Me", and she was a little kid (maybe about 12 years old) when she wrote it.
Is she a tecnically brilliant vocal performer acapella??
I have not heard her sing acapella. But I have seen stripped down accoustic performances with just her and her guitar, and she sang beautifully! I've seen comments even by people who don't like her who say that her live accoustic performances are beautiful.
Can she dance (clearly not)??
Her dancing ability, I'm not sure about. I do know that a common criticism of her is that her voice gets much weaker when she is trying to dance too much. Part of that is because I don't think that comes natrually to her; she's far more comfortable with just a microphone and guitar, and no exotic dance moves.
Russell is very real and constantly questions things. Katy just gets told what to do and how to act every since her record label told her she had to be a robot in order to get famous.
Katy is clearly not the type that would allow anyone (a record company, nor anyone else) to bully her around. I think she may have been lost and genuinely did not know who she was, until recently. My assessment of each of her secular solo studio albums:
One of the Boys: the album that got her noticed
Teenage Dream: the album that made her a superstar
Prism: the album where she figured out who she really is
