Truth be told about celebrities: Katy-Perry

Showing posts with label Katy-Perry. Show all posts

While the Staples Center in Los Angeles was filled with A-listers on Monday night for the 58th Annual GRAMMY Awards, we noticed there were a number of celebs missing from the star-studded event.

Now, we're breaking down all the famous folks that we had hoped to see during music's biggest night.

1. Rihanna

2. Kanye West

3. The Kardashians/Jenners

4. Katy Perry

5. Celine Dion

6. Nicki Minaj

7. Miley Cyrus

8. Blake Shelton

9. Drake

10. A Beyoncé Performance

11. Taylor Swift's Dance Moves

Radio City Music Hall for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign on March 2.

The concert, called “I’m With Her,” will feature Clinton, former President Bill Clinton and daughter Chelsea Clinton. Tickets will start at $125 per person.

Clinton is scheduled to return to Los Angeles for a series of fundraisers on Feb. 22.

Perry performed at a Clinton rally in Des Moines, Iowa, last year in advance of the Jefferson-Jackson Dinner. In 2013, when Clinton was on her book tour for “Hard Choices,” Perry attended an event with the former Secretary of State at CAA and told her that she would write a theme song for her “if she needs it.”

Clinton also got a big dose of celebrity endorsement from Lena Dunham earlier this year when the “Girls” creator took over her Instagram account while stumping for the candidate in New Hampshire.

Rival candidate Bernie Sanders also has some musical heavyweights on his team. The Red Hot Chili Peppers put on a concert for Sanders in Los Angeles earlier this month.

It would be somewhat of a surprise if Taylor Swift went to Katy Perry’s party this weekend.

However, as Perry tells it, the invite is out there. While the “Dark Horse” singer is not attending the GRAMMYs this year, she is hosting “An Evening to Celebrate the Creators,” which is billed as an event for artists and producers to connect, free from publicists, managers, and press, and is taking place on Saturday night ahead of Monday’s awards show.

Spotify is a sponsor of the event, and despite the fact that Swift and Adele have both withheld their music from the streaming service, they are both welcome to the party.

“It’s just up to their schedules,” Perry told the New York Times on Thursday.

Swift’s presumed feud with Perry dates back to a Rolling Stone interview Swift gave in 2014 about a fellow artist.

“For years, I was never sure if we were friends or not,” Swift told the magazine. “She would come up to me at awards shows and say something and walk away, and I would think, 'Are we friends, or did she just give me the harshest insult of my life?’”

Shortly after the article was published, Perry tweeted a Mean Girls reference: “Watch out for the Regina George in sheep’s clothing…”

One reason the memorable walk-off scene in the original Zoolander was so delicious was because the late David Bowie appeared as himself in a terribly clever cameo. Playing a star referee during the famously absurd modeling competition between Derek (Ben Stiller) and Hansel (Owen Wilson), Bowie’s bit part was one of many by celebrities of the day, including Tyrese, Christian Slater, Lil’ Kim, and even not-yet-presidential-candidate Donald Trump. This time around in Zoolander 2, Stiller (who also wrote and directed both films) has doubled down on the gimmick with a movie so packed with recognizable faces, it may very well break an all-time record for celebrity walk-ons.

Dead Pop Stars
Justin Bieber’s cameo was part of the plot setup, his movie death confirmed in teaser material well before the sequel opened in theaters. But other dying-celeb selfies, like the one snapped by the Biebs, flash onscreen when reviewed by Interpol agent Valentina (Penélope Cruz). Keep your eyes peeled for images of Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus, Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, Lenny Kravitz, and Usher.

Stars, Spotted

Other stars appear quickly, some of whom flash across the screen so fast, they’re easy to miss: Olivia Munn, Joe Jonas, singer Susan Boyle, ice skater Johnny Weir, rapper A$AP Rocky, and music producer Skrillex.

Drop-In Philosophizers
Katy Perry and Neil Degrasse Tyson show up quite randomly, conveniently helping Derek and Hansel ponder the meaning of their existence.

Prisoners
We find out Mugatu (Will Ferrell) is in a prison that also houses the real MC Hammer and John Malkovich.

Are things between Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom more serious than they are letting on?

Over the weekend the pair took his son, Flynn, to a birthday party for Robert Downey Jr.’s son Exton. They were the picture of domestic bliss as they pulled up with Perry sitting in the back seat to keep the 5-year-old kiddo company.

The magazine reports that the “Roar” singer is just “having fun” with Bloom and she’s not “seeing this as long-term yet. It’s a fun hookup thing right now.” But there’s something — make that someone — that makes us question if that is true: Miranda Kerr.

2. Orlando doesn’t care about the rule. It’s possible, right?

3. Katy and Orlando are just friends. We’d say this is the least likely scenario, but it’s still possible. But, again, look at the Golden Globes party photo. That doesn’t scream friendship to us.

What do you think? Let us know in the comments.

If Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry are trying not to fuel the flames of all those dating rumors, they're not doing a very good job...

The duo was spotted out together at the Sunset Tower in Los Angeles on Wednesday at a birthday dinner for Bloom's manager, Aleen Keshishian. Jason Bateman and Jennifer Aniston were also in attendance, and Keshishian later posted an Instagram of the group, with Bloom and Perry cozied up for the photo.

From what we're told, Bloom is quite the gentleman too -- he even picked Perry up!

"She was nervous about being spotted and entered quickly trying to cover up. Orlando opened the door for her," an eyewitness told ET of the two arriving together. "They were holding hands in the car. They each rested their arms on the center console and they were definitely interlocked."

The two tried to be a bit sneakier on the way out, leaving the restaurant separately.

"He exited first and she followed a few minutes later and was seen talking to Bateman, his wife and a few others that were around," the eyewitness says. But when the valet brought their call, Bloom and Perry hopped in and went back to her place together.

A Los Angeles Superior Court judge is set to make the decision on whether or not singer Katy Perry will be allowed to buy a convent.

Judge Stephanie Bowick has already heard both sides of a legal battle about who has the rights to sell the building in California, with The Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary insisting that they have the right to sell the property, but the Los Angeles Archdiocese claim that the nuns’ sale is not authorised.

It is reported that the Sisters were set to sell the property for $15.5million but the Archdiocese claims its agreement to sell for $14.5million is legally binding, with the church claiming that the nuns did not get approval for the sale from Archbishop Jose Gomez.

This is all quite a big u-turn from last summer, when the nuns claimed that they were being “forced to violate their vows” by selling the convent to Katy.

In an email correspondence sent from Sister Catherine Rose Holzman to Archbishop Gomez she wrote: “In selling to Katy Perry, we feel we are being forced to violate our canonical vows to the Catholic Church.”

The Los Angeles Times say that the judge is expected to make a decision on the motion within the next sixty days.

Are Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom seeing fireworks?

The pair sparked more dating rumors after they enjoyed a night of theater at a one-man show, The Absolute Brightness of Leonard Palkey, in Los Angeles on Thursday.

After the play, actor James Lecesne tweeted about the "superheroes and goddesses" he attended the performance with, sharing a link to his Instagram. In addition to Perry and Bloom, the group included Vinessa Shaw, the actress who starred as Alison in the cult '90s hit, Hocus Pocus.

To see the photos that have us all wondering about Perry and Bloom's relationship status, watch the video below.

Bow down ladies and gentleman, Katy Perry is officially the queen of Twitter - and by quite a landslide.

Yes, the popstar has beaten her nemesis Taylor Swift, among other stars, to officially become the most followed person on Twitter, with Katy being the first star to reach a whopping 80 million followers on the social networking site.

Justin Bieber is, unsurprisingly, the second most followed person with 73 millions followers, with Taylor Swift coming in at third place with 69 million - that’s 11 million fewer than Katy.

Katy recently claimed that the reason why she might be popular on Twitter is because she writes her own tweets instead of depending on her PR team to interact with fans.

“Right now I’m in a relaxed, chilled vacationing zone, I’ve got my spanx on and I’m just taking a little break…

“I think I have to find that balance between Tweeting too much and plus I have so many followers that nobody really wants me to fill up their timeline.”

“This Is How We Do” a flirty night at the Golden Globes!

Katy Perry turned heads on the red carpet Sunday night with her low-cut, figure-hugging cotton candy pink dress and bump-it — and all eyes were on her at the afterparties as well. The “Roar” songstress, who presented Best Original Song, looked like she was enjoying herself immensely as she got her flirt on with Orlando Bloom at the Weinstein Company and Netflix party at The Beverly Hilton Hotel.

It was beyond a little close talking for the twosome. There was definitely some coy looks and hand contact, as the photos show.

When they weren’t dancing to Justin Timberlake’s “Rock Your Body,” Katy, 31, and Orli, 38, posed for photos together with Mrs. Weinstein — that would be designer Georgina Chapman — and another reveler at the bash.

Some of the best photos from the Golden Globes 2016 are the ones that Jennifer Lopez, Rob Lowe, and other stars shared of the night’s behind-the-scenes moments. Take a peek at what you didn’t see on TV.

Action star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, proving he doesn’t take a day off from fitness: “Get it in where you can.. A lil’ pre #GoldenGlobes hotel suite cardio. Gotta make sure I’m on point so I can fit in my…shoes.” (Photo: Instagram)

Actress Eva Longoria, goofing around with one of the night’s presenters: “Backstage with my girl @katyperry!” (Photo: Instagram)

Sophia Bush, just as thrilled as Lady Gaga is shocked that the singer won the trophy for Best Actress in a Limited Series or TV Movie: “Our girl WON! #OneChicago alright! [Love] you @ladygaga #goldenglobes” (Photo: Instagram)

What did we do before Instagram? The social media platform becomes especially handy during awards season, when getting a sneak peek at the celebs as they get ready for their red carpet debuts is in high demand.

Sam Smith and his songwriting partner Jimmy Napes received the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song tonight for “Writing’s On The Wall,” their theme for the final Daniel Craig James Bond film Spectre. The award was presented by Katy Perry, and the other nominees were Ellie Goulding’s “Love Me Like You Do” from 50 Shades Of Grey, Brian Wilson’s “One Kind Of Love” from Love & Mercy, Wiz Khalifa and Stereogum fave Charlie Puth’s “See You Again” from Furious 7, and Sumi Jo’s “Simple Song No. 3″ from Youth.

And in non-music but music-adjacent Golden Globes news, Lady Gaga took home the trophy for Best Actress In A Limited Series Or TV Movie for her role on American Horror Story: Hotel.

It’s official! Beyoncé is set to perform at Super Bowl 50 on Sunday, February 7, a source confirms to Us Weekly. Pepsi also confirmed the news to the Associated Press on Thursday, January 7.

Queen Bey will be joining previously announced performers Coldplay for the Pepsi Halftime Show at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The musicians have collaborated in the past, and most recently on the band’s new album, A Head Full of Dreams.

As fans are well aware, Bey graced the football field in 2013 in New Orleans for Super Bowl XLVII, staging an amazing reunion alongside Destiny’s Child members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams for the halftime show.

Last year’s performer was Katy Perry and, of course, left shark!

Doppelgängers are more common than you’d want to know; we just almost never come across ours because of various reasons like location, age, etc. But if you’re a celebrity, chances of you meeting your doppelgänger increase exponentially, even more so if your doppelgänger is a celebrity too. Scroll on for our list of seven celebrity lookalikes that have us wondering if we’re seeing in doubles most of the time.

Katrina Kaif and Zarine Khan: Zarine Khan made her debut in Bollywood with Salman Khan in Veer, but has hardly been seen since. The only reason we even remember her is because of the headlines she made when she debuted for her striking similarity with Salman’s ex-girlfriend Katrina Kaif. Zarine, however disagrees and maintains that there isn’t a similarity.

Hrithik Roshan and Bradley Cooper: Sure, Hrithik does has an Indian Greek God feel about him, whereas Bradley has a more international look, but these two could practically be half—brothers with their similar jawlines and large foreheads, Even their eye colour is similar!

Aishwarya Rai and Sneha Ullal: So there does seem to be a pattern here. Salman Khan debuted opposite Salman Khan in Lucky-No Time For Love and made headlines too for her uncanny resemblance to Salman’s ex-girlfriend Aishwarya Rai. And Sneha too, disagreed and maintained there was no resemblance. Regardless, the similarities with Salman’s ex-girlfriends does not seem to have done much for the two doppelgängers’ careers.

Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel: These two should truly switch places one day and see if anyone can tell the difference. While they do have very unique personality traits that do distinguish them, it would only take a little acting to fool the world. And that’s a prank we would pay to see.

Topshop released its Holiday 2015 campaign images, and they’re pretty much a festive It-girl explosion. Called “The New Supers,” the campaign stars Bella Hadid, Malaika Firth, Ella Richards, Sophia Ahrens, Imaan Hammam, and other models whose Instagram handles are at least as famous as their faces. And if the looks they’re modeling are any indication, your holidays will be spent wearing scandalously short, shiny dresses

Miley Cyrus is hosting the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, August 30, and you may have spotted the promos featuring the provocative performer sticking out her tongue — as usual. Her tongue made its famous appearance at the 2013 MTV VMA, when she performed a medley of songs onstage with Robin Thicke, but she was well known for sticking out her tongue in public even when she was moonlighting as Hannah Montana on the Disney Channel.
