I absolutely love her yellow dress! She looks so beautiful! (Much better than her MET gown!).

This cover is certainly different than her Vanity Fair cover that was released yesterday!
Katy Perry is going 90′s nerd on the cover of her new single, “Last Friday Night”.
Can’t wait to see the music video!
Vanity Fair sat down with singer Katy Perry for their June issue, and I think she looks amazing on the cover (even if it looks like she’s channeling Dita Von Teese, still hot).
On her religious upbringing:
“I come from a very non-accepting family, but I’m very accepting,” Perry says of her religious beliefs as an adult. “Russell is into Hinduism, and I’m not [really] involved in it. He meditates in the morning and the evening; I’m starting to do it more because it really centers me. [But] I just let him be him, and he lets me be me.” Perry says she didn’t stick with the mold growing up. “I have always been the kid who’s asked ‘Why?’ In my faith, you’re just supposed to have faith. But I was always like…why?” she says. “At this point, I’m just kind of a drifter. I’m open to possibility…. My sponge is so big and wide and I’m soaking everything up and my mind has been radically expanded. Just being around different cultures and people and their opinions and perspectives. Just looking into the sky.”
On her parents:
“I think sometimes when children grow up, their parents grow up,” Perry says of her evangelical-minister parents. “Mine grew up with me. We coexist. I don’t try to change them anymore, and I don’t think they try to change me. We agree to disagree. They’re excited about [my success]. They’re happy that things are going well for their three children and that they’re not on drugs. Or in prison.” Perry’s mother confirms that she is proud of her daughter’s success, telling Robinson, “The Lord told us when I was pregnant with her that she would do this.”
“I didn’t have a childhood,” she says, adding that her mother never read her any books except the Bible, and that she wasn’t allowed to say “deviled eggs” or “Dirt Devil.” Perry wasn’t even allowed to listen to secular music and relied on friends to sneak her CDs. “Growing up, seeing Planned Parenthood, it was considered like the abortion clinic,” she tells Robinson. “I was always scared I was going to get bombed when I was there…. I didn’t know it was more than that, that it was for women and their needs. I didn’t have insurance, so I went there and I learned about birth control.”
On her husband Russell Brand:
Perry says that there is “never a dull moment” and that Brand has “never lied to me once. I trust him; there’s just a level of trust that we’ve built up.” When asked about the infamous photo Brand tweeted of her without makeup in the middle of the night, Perry laughs it off. “We were just messing around,” she says, “I didn’t really care. I mean, when I go to rehearsals I look like that. I’m every woman. It takes a village to make me who I am…. You don’t have to wake up looking like, you know, Gisele.”
On being married in the public eye:
“The press is just not your friend when it comes to a marriage,” Perry explains of her need for privacy in her relationship with Brand. “That’s why we didn’t sell the pictures of our wedding, and we got offered millions of dollars for them, millions.” Why not take the money and give it to charity? Robinson asks. “Well, I can always do that later for something else; maybe if I have a child,” Perry says. “But I’ve seen too much of it with other people—it’s the wrong kind of attention. It detracts from the reason why you exist. We wanted that moment to ourselves.” After ultimately showing a clip of her wedding video at the Grammys, Perry tells Robinson she did it “because I felt the moment was right and not forced. Russell and I had time to savor our moment privately first and then share it with people when we were ready, and not for a paycheck. I loved the idea, because I thought it was beautiful and artistically accompanied the song I wrote for him. Plus, it was Valentine’s eve!”
On the gossip:
“I don’t care what people say about my relationship; I don’t care what they say about my boobs. People are buying my songs; I have a sold-out tour. I’m getting incredible feedback from my music.” But despite her immense fame, Perry never forgets what it took to get to where she is. “I don’t take anything for granted,” she says. “There are 500 other girls right behind me. And I know that, because I was one of them. I remember what it’s like to be someone who’s always trying to get there—sending out tons of e-mails … trying to connect with some person who could connect me with some other person. And I wouldn’t be working at this pace now if I didn’t truly know that fame is fleeting.”
Kristen Stewart, who has been cast as Snow White in the upcoming movie “Snow White and the Huntsman” has finally landed a prince!
Sam Claflin (who!?), a relative newbie, has been cast as Prince Charmant. He comes fresh off a major role in “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides”. He’ll play opposite Kristen as Snow White, and Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen.
As of now, no Huntsman as been cast. “Thor” actor Chris Hemsworth was offered the role after Hugh Jackman backed out.
The film puts Snow White in the care of a Huntsman originally sent to kill her by Theron’s Evil Queen; instead, they soon bond and he trains her for combat as she moves toward meeting her prince.
This is one of a number of “Snow White” films being made; Claflin’s prince role will be occupied by Armie Hammer in “The Brothers Grimm: Snow White,” which will star Lilly Collins as the princess and Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen.
Guess those three potential engagement rings she has picked out at Tiffany’s are just going to have to stay where they are a bit longer. According to US Weekly, JLove has been dumped again.
Jennifer Love has lost in love again. After nearly a year together, Jennifer Love Hewitt has parted ways with beau Alex Beh, her rep confirms to Us Weekly.
“They haven’t been dating for a little while,” the rep adds.
Us first reported that Hewitt was dating actor-director Beh in late July 2010 following her March split from Ghost Whisperer costar Jamie Kennedy.
In the wake of her Beh breakup, “She’s doing well,” a pal tells Us.
Back in February, all was well with Hewitt, 31 and her man. “He buys me flowers every day,” she told Us in an NYC fashion week event. “Ever since we met. Every single day — I’m serious! He’ll either give me a bouquet, or handpick one. So sweet!”
No matter her relationship status, the TV vet told Ellen DeGeneres in January that she she has three Tiffany engagement rings picked out — just in case.
“I actually have three because I feel like I’m doing the guy a favor,” she said. “I feel like I don’t want to be upset if he picks a bad ring.”
