Katy Perry was named Woman of the Year at Friday night’s Billboard Women in Music awards, and she made a pretty strong departure from her recent matronly turn in fashion with a lovely tomato-red Oscar de la Renta dress and silver, peep-toed heels. I’m guessing that, since Katy never mentioned feeling fat (her words, not mine) in her acceptance speech (and I wouldn’t put it past her to say that), Katy had tucked herself into her beloved Spanx, and she looks pretty good here. By that statement, I mean that she’s dressed respectfully for the occasion and neither her boobs nor her booty are hanging out all over the place. Katy wore her hair in an elaborate, braided updo, which was quite flattering, and I’ve included a rear view of the hairdo and dress as well as a photo with Carly Rae “Cinderella for Life” Jepsen, who was named Rising Star, at the bottom of this post.
In the meantime, we’ve already recently heard Carla Bruni’s negative opinion on feminism, and now Katy is chiming in as well. Here are some excerpts from her acceptance speech as (ahem) Woman of the Year:
On feminism: “I am not a feminist, but I do believe in the strength of women.”
Her relationship with fans: “I don’t really like to call myself a role model for my fans. I hope that I am an inspiration for them, especially young women. My mantra, especially for the [Part Of Me] film, was: If you believe in yourself, you can be anything. People don’t want to look up to someone. They want to look at across at someone and say, ‘That’s my girl. She’s singing something I don’t know how to put into words. She’s captured something and became the soundtrack of my life.’ And I know that if I get out of line, my sister back home will whack me across the face – and so will my management.”
On her mom, Mary Hudson: Katy thanked her mother “[f]or keeping my head above water throughout all the 124 shows of the tour and some of the hardest times of my life.”

Oh, Katy. I guess now we know why she’s hooked on a misogynist like John Mayer.
Katy’s makeup was relatively low-key compared to her usual look. She’s still wearing a pancake layer, but she’s downplayed the colors, so she looks relatively mature instead of gaudy. A definite step in the right direction.
Carly Rae Jepsen wore a bright blue Rachel Zoe dress with a youngish-looking ruffle detail at the hem. Her gold pumps are Brian Atwood. This girl just doesn’t stand out from the crowd, does she?

Katy Perry is one of those girls that I either love or hate depending on what she is wearing. And today, after seeing these photos of her at the 2012 Billboard Women In Music Luncheon she has won me over. I guess it’s not hard when Katy’s dress highlights her awesome breasts. Anyway, as long

It’s been a little while since I’ve done a post on Katy Perry, but here she is at the 8th Annual UNICEF Snowflake Ball. It’s nice to see she brought out the big guns for charity, but I’ve spent the last few minutes trying to tell if I could see anything under Katy’s see-through dress,

Toning down her usual playful looks for a glamorous evening, Katy Perry attended the UNICEF SnowFlake Ball at Cipriani 42nd Street in New York City on Tuesday (November 27).
The "Firework" singer looked elegant in a navy semi-sheer sleeveless gown with a matching shawl and her hair worn down as she strutted her stuff on the blue carpet.
The annual black-tie gala honors those whose philanthropic commitments support UNICEF's mission to save children?s lives.
This year, Harry Belafonte will receive the Audrey Hepburn Humanitarian Award while Tony Bennett and The Wynton Marsalis Quintet entertained the crowd.

| Katy Perry in floral D&G at the Dream Foundation gala: pretty or too serious? | Added 12 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Last night, Katy Perry was recognized by the Dream Foundation at its annual gala for her efforts to “bring awareness to the importance of lending a hand to dreams that involve children who are facing the impending loss of a parent,” which is nice, and I can’t bag on Katy for being involved with such a cause. Where her fashion sense is concerned, however, Katy is still fair game for mockery. For the gala, she wore a full-length, floral Dolce & Gabbana dress, and the effect is rather underwhelming. Granted, Katy has been attempting to project a more grown-up look these days through a series of more serious (faux-gothy) and somewhat boring gowns. I can appreciate that she’s no longer pulling the fetishy, cotton-candy gimmick with her outfit choices, but the sudden move into more mature territory is off-putting at best.
Overall, this was an appropriate look for a gala, and since there were probably children present at the event, it’s nice that Katy didn’t oversexualize herself by having her rack or butt cheeks hanging out. I don’t really like the heaviness that her new hair extentions lend to her dyed-black hair. Maybe an updo with a few loose, curled tendrils would have been prettier. Her makeup was also typically masklike, but those chunky green earrings are a nice touch and all the more reason for an updo.
Katy’s dress did look better in motion than it did while posing on the red carpet.

Accepting an honor for her work with the organization, Katy Perry attended The Dream Foundation's 11th Annual Celebration of Dreams Gala at The Bacara Resort & Spa in Santa Barbara, California on Friday (November 16).
The "Firework" singer looked elegant in a Pink and red floral print sleeveless Dolce & Gabana gown as she strutted her stuff on the red carpet.
Founded in 1993, the charity helps make dreams come true for adults facing life-threatening illness. According to the website, "Our dreamers have received a life expectancy of one year or less, and lack the resources to achieve their dreams on their own. While we cannot cure their diseases, we can dramatically impact the quality of their fragile lives with the joy experienced from a dream come true."
The 28-year-old pop star received the Founder's Humanitarian Award at the ceremony, along with "American Idol" producer Nigel Lythgoe.

Again showing her support for Barack Obama, Katy Perry performed at the President's re-election campaign rally in downtown Milwaukee on Saturday (November 3).
With rock legend Bruce Springsteen also on-hand, the ?Hot N Cold? hitmaker livened up the Delta Center venue while decked out in a purple, body-hugging ensemble with the word 'Forward' written from top to bottom.
Spreading the word about voting, Katy took to Twitter on Thursday, writing, ?Good things come in threes! My next destination w/ @BarackObama: Milwaukee, WI on Saturday! Get free tix: 2012 & vote early!?
Having been actively offering her support to the current Commander-In-Chief's quest for four more years in office, the 28-year-old joined in on a fundraiser held in Los Angeles last month while also having taken the stage in Sin City just this past weekend.

So what did Rose McGowan and Katy Perry dress up as for Halloween you ask? Rose McGowan dressed as a Russian Ice Queen (?) and Katy Perry looked like she just escaped a child abductor who had her locked in the basement for 5 years. Anziz Ansari was also at the Hollywood Forever Cemetary and for a comedian, his costume was kind of depressing.

Showing off her alternative tendencies, Katy Perry showed up at the Hollywood Cemetery Halloween Party as cartoon character ?Daria?s? sidekick Jane Lane last night (October 31).
The ?Hot N Cold? singer?s gal pal Shannon Woodward handled the Daria costume as the dynamic diva duo mingled with fellow celebrity guests.
And while she?s loved by millions, Katy has definitely made an enemy in Crystal Castles lead singer Alice Glass, who claims Perry is ?sexualizing children? with her persona.
Glass ranted, "I think a lot of kids are more sexualized now than they were years ago and I'm not sure it's a coincidence. Like f**king Katy Perry spraying people with her f**king d**k, her f**king c*m gun c*mming on f**king children. And little girls, like, 6-year-old girls wearing a shirt with 'I wanna see your [pea] cock' on it."
"It's f**king evil. Don't prey on vulnerable people like that. Don't encourage little girls to get dressed up, to have cupcakes on their tits to get people to lick them off, 'cos that's what you're insinuating."

She has always been a big sports fan, and last night (October 30) Katy Perry showed up at the Staples Center for the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Dallas Mavericks basketball game.
Joined by her dad Keith Hudson, the ?I Kissed A Girl? singer looked gorgeous in an animal print dress as she strolled inside for the season opener.
And wouldn?t you know it, Katy?s ex-husband Russell Brand was also in the house, chatting and laughing with fellow Brit David Beckham from his courtside seats.
Thankfully there weren?t any awkward situations between the exes, and when the game was over, Katy took her car straight to a recording studio? perhaps some post-game inspiration?!
