Katy Perry

Color me crazy but I think it's love.

Yeah, I think it's actual love as well. They are both nuts so it's not hard for me to buy they are really in love. Not sure if it's a good idea to get married after only a few months (I read they recently bought a home together) but hey best of luck to them!

I have a question about his accent. Is it authentic? It sounds sort of put on or something. Like I've never heard a real person actually sound like that

I've heard other Brits that sound like him. He certainly could be exaggerating his real accent but I'm leaning towards real.

Yeah, that's what I was wondering -- if it was exaggerated. I reckon he's authentically got that accent (because one does hear people who sound like this), but was wondering if he makes it sound even more so than what it naturally is. Something sounds sort of "put on" about it, but I could be wrong.

I guess I'm wondering what his background is in Britain and whether he augments his natural accent to fit some kind of mold or something. I know my cousins will alter their accent depending on the company (one minute they sound like they went to public school, the next they sort of sound like him but not quite as so). So I guess I was wondering if he alters it for career purposes.

On another note, I don't know what to make of Katy Perry. She's not really as untalented as Britney Spears or as talented as Lady Gaga.

Russell is an Essex boy. That is pretty much what Essex boys sound like but I think a lot of comedians play around with their voice for effect, so I wouldn't be surprised if he does, too.

Thanks! I know my question sounded strange, but I have a curiosity/fascination about accents.

Katy at the 2010 Grammy Awards (January 31st, Los Angeles):

At a pre-Grammy gala event, Katy showed her respect for fellow pop star Lady Gaga.

“Really, I think that she just knew what she was doing, and she’s just playing the game on a totally different level,” Katy told MTV. “And people are now just playing catch-up with her. When I saw her on the AMAs, I was like, whatever. She was just in the Bowie/Prince kind of level.”

What a hideous dress. Her hair and makeup are bad, too. She looks so old in all that get-up.

I can't believe that she and Russell Brand are still together.

[JeanBean]

I see what she was going for with that dress, but she is not pulling it off. I wonder if she has bad skin, because she always cakes on that makeup like a tranny.

She must because she's pitching ProActiv now.

That dress is awful. Panty hose covered with bathtub decals. I can't believe they're still together, either. I guess I wish them luck.
