PHOTO: Katy Perry Planks As A Mermaid

Have you heard of the “planking” craze taking over the country? You know, people who lay flat on their stomachs with their hands by their side on various objects?

If you are on Facebook, I am sure you have had at least one friend partaking in this bizarre ritual and posting pics of their accomplishments.

So, Katy Perry thought she would join the fun, but added her own strange twist. She tweeted this photo of herself as a mermaid, planking on a makeshift ocean perhaps?

She also Tweeted: “PROPER planking FTW! #itswhatArielwoulddo.”

I bet this is a sneak peak of her next music video.

Video: ‘American Idol’s’ Frenchie Davis ‘Kisses A Girl’ & Shines On ‘The Voice’

I love people who never give up on their dreams. Case in point, Frenchie Davis who got disqualified on season 2 of American Idol for some racy photos she had taken earlier on in life, but who is still pursuing her dreams of becoming a bona fide singer 8 years later.

Fast forward to almost a decade after her dreams were crushed on Idol, Frenchie is trying out for a brand new singing competition, The Voice, starring Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine, Cee Lo Green and Blake Shelton as “coaches.”
For her audition, Frenchie sang Katy Perry‘s I Kissed a Girl and Aguilera liked her voice so much, she blindly picked her to be on her team of 8 singers whom she will coach throughout the competition.
Watch Frenchie’s audition here:

Russell Brand On Kissing Katy Perry . . .

Russell Brand won the honors of CelebMagnet’s Best Celebrity Quote of the Month in February and he seems to be a shoe in for that award again in March. Interestingly enough, both quotes revolve around Brand’s thoughts on his kissing partners. 

Brand is currently shooting Arthur, a remake of the 1981 Dudley Moore classic along with co-star, Jennifer GarnerWhile on set, Brand was interviewed by NextMovie.com about his co-star, Garner and he said: “She’s like a fairy princess. There’s a brand of red-velvet cake, her mouth is made of that. She smashes you in the mouth [in] those kissing scenes. If I was Ben Affleck, man, I’d be pissed off.” 


Brand appeared on The View Tuesday where Sherri Shepherd brought up the “red velvet” quote and gave Brand the chance to say something equally nice about kissing his own wife, Katy Perry. Of course Brand did not disappoint. “They are a conduit to paradise, a tunnel to another world. They are redemption, salvation, glory, poetry!” Brand gushed.  


WOW! I can honestly say Brand redeemed himself for last month’s quote.

Katy Perry Has Grown To Love Her Curves

Here are some excerpts:

On her big boobs: 

“I had these enormous boobs I didn’t know what to do with. I wore minimizers, which are not cute. Those thick-ass straps! I got made fun of for the over-the-shoulder boulder holder, and all I wanted was to look like Kate Moss…Little did I know these things would come in handy someday.”
On her younger years:
“I was like a square. I was! I’m generally around 130 pounds, which is totally fine for me. But when I was a kid, I was the same height and weighed more like 145.”
On her husband Russell Brand:

On having kids: 

“I want to have kids!” Perry said. “I’m totally fine with saying that. I think some people are … worried it’s going to ruin their career, but I want to live a full life.”

Russell Brand Tweets Pic Of Katy Perry With No Makeup – Quickly Deletes

OOPS! Russell Brand may have committed a cardinal sin – He Tweeted an unflattering photo of his otherwise always gorgeous in public, always meticulously dressed and dolled up wife, Katy Perry.

The photo (on the left) appears to have been taken when Perry had just woken up to a camera aimed at her pillow. She’s seen with a horrified look on her face, without a lick of makeup.

Brand quickly deleted the photo from his Twitter account but not before it had already leaked to the media. Let’s just hope for Brand’s sake that Perry is the forgiving kind.
