Katy Perry has a blog. In a nutshell, she's one of "those" girls...you know the ones who call themselves kitty, have altered their name to have kitty or cat in it, and eats, breathes, craps kittens. Her blog is called "Kitty Purry." She also has pictures and videos of kittens...200% sized ones, so if you don't like cats, kittens, felines, and especially those shirts that have kittens blown up on them [like that one white sweatshirt with the three cats hanging out in a basket], it's best to stay away. Here's one of her blog entries:

"DROP DEAD FRED.

OMG.LMFAO. I had so.much.fun.last.night. Now I lay in bed… with my bbq chicken chopped breath courtesy of CPK (dang I love that place, they will cater my wedding fo so!) I might have a little of what you call a “malibu bum” from le Malibu Rum… who were so so nice to make my strange dreams come true. Hey, anybody can throw a bday party a club, but personally I’d rather have a nap… so I thought of this. 250 of my closest friends, family and producers were present. As some of you know I am practically walking dead from the non stop of promo… and sometimes I don’t get to see my crew as much. Whenever I’m home I get a hard hang with them… they are my batteries. My friends are great. We all share the same sense of humor and all we do is literally sit around laugh and play “your team.” (insider joker) Sometimes I dislike coming back to fakelay… but I don’t think I could find better people anywhere else. Loverst you guys, even though I know they don’t check my blerg… cause they are cunty. Anyways. It was RAD. One day I will be able to be like Miley and rent out Disney land and I will have a big party and you guys will all be invited for the low low price of fucking frizzle! (free) (hi miles!) (hi swift!:) After walking around in a daze today I had my first fitting for the ema’s… oooo… the outfits…. ooo…. I giggle with JOY about the outfits. Here’s a hint. One of them is a moving contraption. HA! There are so many AMAZING set ups for the hosting… I hope you guys can stream it online or something… cause this ain’t gonna be your plain old hostin’! ALSO. I do wanna say a very special special thank you to my little Kittys. I received ALL my gifts and the binder you put together and I NEVER, SWEAR, NEVER read that “katy perry birthday gift…katy do not read” thread. self controlled. Although I wanted to. THANK YOU. I CHERISH IT. It made me teary, honest… to think that some where out there, there are people that share the same sense of humor and taste. I thought I was an alien. If you would like to join the aliens please visit www.katyperryforum.com. Now THEY got the scoop.

I know you guys like pictures…so here’s some harder to find ones:

Popular indie band duo MGMT wants what is due to them...royalties for their track "Kids". MGMT claims that French President, Nicolas Sarkozy used the track in one of his campaign commercials without the band's permission. Sarkozy's party the UMP admitted to using it and offered one euro as a symbolic gesture. MGMT's lawyer Isabelle Wekstein called the offer "insulting":

"This offer is disrespectful of the rights of artists and authors. It is insulting. We are dealing with acts of counterfeiting, an infringement of intellectual property."

Ironically, this comes at a time when Sarkozy's party is working with the French Parliament to enforce tougher penalties for online sharing and piracy.

Rihanna spent her 21st birthday with a few close friends at a private cushy resort in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. A Star insider noticed that she wasn't in the best of moods on her birthday but looked happier the next day:

"She was outside by one of the two pools on the property of the house she was staying at. She seemed a bit depressed, walking around with her head down and occasionally looking up. Physically, she looked pretty good. I didn't see any bruises or cuts on her face or body.

The day after Rihanna's birthday, she seemed a bit more cheerful. There was always music playing at the house and she was walking around the pool area with her head bopping up and down to the music. I'm sure spending time with her friends and getting some rest and relaxation lifted her spirits."

Hope this vacation helps her move on from the traumatic incident.

Legendary Liz Smith aka "Diva Dish" will end her column of three decades. This will be the first time in 33 years that there will not be a Liz Smith column in the NY Post. This is happening during a time where many newspapers across the country are suffering and may have no choice but to lay off employees, including the San Francisco Chronicle. Liz said:

"That hurts my heart. I would hate to see another newspaper fail. ... When I came to New York, there were nine newspapers. I've worked for seven of them. They just disappear out from under you,"

Liz will continue to write for wowOwow.com, which is a website created for women by women.

From our grand prize winner, icantbelievetheydidthat -

Fashion Favorites & Disasters: "Favorite: Sarah "Best Dress" Parker in Dior Coutour. Disaster: Jessica "Toga" Biel...can we stop with the abstract designed shaped dresses that look a little too easy to make? Her Prada dress wore her!"

A Roundup of Oscar Viewership: "This year also saw an increase in male viewership, normally a tough demographic to attract. I think we can thank the Dark Knight for that, with everyone having a boyfriend or someone they knew dressing as the Joker this past Halloween."

Thank you Celebuzz!

No one wants to touch Chris Brown with a 10-foot pole. Insiders told In Touch magazine that “not only did he probably lose his career and his girlfriend, but he’s also fearing for his security and his life.” Another insider said “Chris is a marked man,” a music insider says. “He faces criminal charges and possible jail time, but he’s going to have to deal with Rihanna’s legion of fans and her close-knit friends in the industry.” Once the alleged photo of a Rihanna was leaked it was all over. Remember, it's always the rapists and women and child abusers who are targeted by inmates in prison.

The Andy Warhol inspired pieces were produced by artist Banksy in a limited set of 20. Most of the art pieces were sold individually, and this set was supposed to sell for £150,000, but is not seeing any bidders. I can see why. Who wants screen printed Kate Moss these days [especially when Banksy is known for stenciling], when you can get her at Walgreen’s in the make-up section under Rimmel?

The longest running prime-time drama in the US is coming to the UK. Everything will be the same from the ominous music in the opening credits down to the "dum dum" that Saturday Night Live likes to use in their Law and Order parodies. The biggest difference is the wigs that are worn in the British courtroom. Also, prosecutors must stay behind a bench and are not allowed to march around the courtroom like in the US, which may pose as a problem because "it is quite restricting and I think the emotion within the court room scenes has been heightened from the American version to accommodate that."

Forever party girl Lindsay Lohan twitches, scratches head alot, looks years beyond her age on Red Carpet in this E! Online interview. In the interview she talks about her new endeavors...a spray tan company, starting a jewelry line...I'm serious! It's like she's joined the Miami mob. Lezlo says it all while twitching and uncomfortably glancing from side to side, unable to keep still. She kept scratching her head, and I was eagerly waiting for her to say out loud, "can someone tell me if there are bugs crawling in my hair, or am I still tripping?"

The 50 year old actress mingled around in a sheer see through dress at the 2008 Elton John AIDS Foundation’s Academy Award Viewing Party held at the Pacific Design Center in Hollywood. Stone admitted:

“These events are lovely, but you really are here to do a job ­ I work for both Dior and Damiani ­ so you put on a smile, stay calm, and try not to get crazy about it!”

Stone is referring to the fact that many celebrities sign contracts these days with designers instead of wearing their design for free. A celebrity's appearance in their gown offers invaluable advertising worth [up to millions of dollars].

I can't tell if Miley's dress was modeled after a barnacle covered sea-rock or if it was taken from the designer's architect's roofing plans.

"You can't eat it. You can't f*ck it. And it won't get me in to Heaven." Mickey Rourke describes an Oscar to Barbara Walters what winning an Oscar would have done for his career. Unfortunately The Wrestler actor lost to Sean Penn in Milk. I was completely rooting for him. He prepared [unknowingly] his whole life for this role, which Rourke admitted to Walters reflected his life all too well. The Oscars gave Heath Ledger a posthumous Oscar. Would things have been different if we were mourning Mickey Rourke?

Hugh Jackman was...well boring but for this stuffy award show he wasn't too over the top. His Australian accent fit well with all the black ties and Swarovski donned gowns.

2008 brought the lowest ratings ever for the Oscars. The producers of the show are worried that if they are not able to improve ratings, then the show and ad revenue will disappear in a slippery slope of unpopularity.

In an attempt to improve ratings, producers tried to convince celebrity publicists to enter through a side entrance so that what they are wearing would be a surprise for the telecasts. They even suggested that male models and female models deliver the Oscars to the presenters.

Even the celebrities don't want to present awards, which were once considered an honor. Kate Winslet, who is going for a best actress award, was "too nervous." Nicole Kidman needed the "right hairdresser." George Clooney was at a Darfur refugee camp in Africa. Maybe the celebrities finally realized that presenting is work. It isn't all fun and games when you goof up your lines and you are hung-over from last night's Academy pre-party, thinking to yourself, “why the hell did I volunteer to do this?”

What could be even cooler than your hip ugly sweater parties?  Ugly Oscar dress parties! Just imagine how cool you'll look when you show up dressed in your very own Demi Moore self-designed Oscar dress. An ode to 1989, you can say, "yep I made this myself with my very own bike shorts [not just any...the extra special ones with lace at the bottom], bustier, and Wiccan tablecloth."
