<3 I was lucky enough to win a meet and greet with her for her show. I flew over to see her, best money I've ever spent.

She is so gorgeous, sweet, humble, generous irl. And her concert was amazing!
 
I couldn't stand that interview in Vanity Fair. I LOVED the photo-spread, particularly that they draped her in Christian Dior Haute Couture in every shot (the one with in the Louvre with the Mona Lisa gave me life!) save for the Gaultier picture, but that interview was tedious to read. Inanity, thy name is Lisa Robinson.
 
Staring at Katy Perry Could Cost You Your Job
Posted Fri May 20, 2011 9:52am PDT by Caryn Ganz

It's very rare for a tour rider to make an artist look good. It is, after all, the rundown of provisions a performer requires on the road, and even Mr. Rogers' list of demands might come off selfish and neurotic. But in some instances, requests on tour riders are so outlandish, so obnoxious, they become legendary. Van Halen had a rule about brown M&Ms. Axl Rose needed Wonder Bread. And Katy Perry has a line item about carnations: "ABSOLUTELY NO CARNATIONS."

Unless coming into contact with a carnation will cause the 26-year-old singer seizures or death, Perry's specifications about the flowers in her dressing room are a little extreme. But that's nothing compared to the rules governing her drivers that came to light yesterday when a six-page excerpt of her 45-page rider hit the Smoking Gun. According to the document drawn up for her California Dreams World Tour, drivers chauffeuring Perry are not permitted to open doors, touch bags, or "stair at the backseat thru the rearvieuw mirrow" (that rule was so exciting, whoever typed it up mangled it beyond recognition). Furthermore, the driver will not start a conversation with Perry, speak to her guests or fans, ask for autographs, speak on the phone, or drive anywhere other than the left lane on highways[sup]1[/sup]. In total, there are 23 bullet points on the page marked "Principle Driver Policy." Perry's reps have not responded to a request for comment at press time.

While many of the requests for Perry's dressing rooms are pretty standard (tea, fresh fruit, chips and salsa), and one is even awesome (she outfits her team with Sigg water bottles to reduce waste), there is a provision in the part of the rider that addresses tickets that is particularly off-putting. On page 17, Perry's team asks for promoters to set aside seats for her "Personal Manager" to resell via secondary ticket vendors, adding Katy's crew isn't required to share any of the profits with the promoter. That means Perry's people are selling a handful of tickets directly to fans via the legendarily inflated secondary-ticket market -- the market artists like Bruce Springsteen have condemned -- and pocketing the profits. That's unflattering -- not as unflattering as the photo Perry picked for her hilarious "Last Friday Night" remix cover, but it's not a good look.

I don't like carnations, either.


And I know "don't look at Katy Perry" makes her sound like a Prima Donna, but a chauffeur's job is to drive her to and from places, and it would be nice if they got her there safely. That's not going to happen if they're distracted by the fact that she's in the backseat.
 
It is her big screen debut tonight, so Katy Perry would have wanted to ensure nobody stole the spotlight.

The quirky signer arrived at the premiere of The Smurfs movie in New York wearing a cute white dress emblazoned with a picture of her character, Smurfette, in sparkling sequins on the front.

Her newly blonde locks also made their red carpet debut at the event, where Katy was joined by he co-stars, both human and Smurf.

The 26-year-old E.T. singer showed off plenty of her porcelain skin in the tiny frock which she was with blue pumps and matching eye make-up.

Katy also accessorised with a Smurf manicure - the star had the cartoon characters painted on to her nails for the event.

Perry tweeted on her way to the screening: 'Headed to SMURF VILLAGE for the premiere of The Smurfs!!! I'm SMURFETTE!!! I'm blue... aba de aba die aba de aba di aba de aba di! YAY!'

I don't like the blonde hair on her -- it makes it look too "Barbie-ish" and plastic
I think her legs look great actually -- I like that she isn't obviously spray-tanned
I was looking at her legs earlier and wondering what she does that makes them look so smooth and flawless (usually a good spray tan masks leg blemishes and razor pores - when legs are that pale, they don't normally look that flawless)
