Lip-gloss rebel Katy Perry goes gold

Katy Perry who kissed a girl and who liked it got her golden record, meaning 150,000 singles sold of ‘I Kissed a Girl’ in Berlin, Germany.

Katy in a cleavage-baring red striped blouse paired with a ruffled polka dot skirt, sheer polka-dot nylons and cherry red patent Mary Jane heels looked like she has the taste of a cherry chapstick.

After receiving her certified gold record, Katy took the stage for a promo-gig putting on a brief show for her German fans.

Did you know this may never have been? Katy Perry was doubting if she needed to release this hit song because she thought it wasn’t good enough. Moreover she was afraid to offend her parents’ religious beliefs as song contains homosexual idea. By the way her dad is a pastor.

Thanks to Travis McCoy, her boyfriend and the memeber of the Gym Class Heroes, who changed her mind saying the song was a smash.

McCoy says:

As soon as Katy played ‘I Kissed A Girl’ I said, ‘Baby, this is a smash’. I totally knew from the word go, but she wasn’t sure. She was like, ‘Do you really think so?’ I proved it to her.”

Travis then proved it to her by sneaking the track onto a playlist of songs played before his band’s live gigs.

As soon as it blasted out, the kids went absolutely mad. They didn’t even know who Katy Perry was then.”

Here’s what Californian 23 year old has to say on the attitude towards her song:

Some people have taken ‘I Kissed A Girl’ the wrong way, but others seem to get the joke. In the UK, it’s been great. The British have a warped sense of humour, just like I do.

I’m not trying to tell people to do things. I’m not campaigning. It’s a song about curiosity. It’s about something that a lot of girls have thought about, but probably not carried through.

I have kissed a girl, but I’m not a lesbian. I have a boyfriend. I just didn’t want to sing another typical relationship song. Nobody told me to sing the song.”
