When Kitty goes Gaga.

Sunday, May 9th, 2010

Huge fan of Hello Kitty and Lady Gaga as the Raspberry Cupcake is, this post is a must on this very mine blog.

The famously eccentric songbird has posed for a bizarre series of pics for cult brand Hello Kitty, designed to celebrate the famous white cat’s 35th birthday. And she keeps her eyes closed throughout.

In the first, GaGa donned a jewel-encrusted bra with a matching eye-piece, Marilyn Monroe-style locks, fishnet tights and a Hello Pussy purse strung around her waist.

In the second, meanwhile, she posed against a gold backdrop, with Hello Kitty’s signature red bow in her hair, and manga cartoon eyes drawn over her lids.

She also donned a dress made entirely from Hello Kitty cuddly toys, and a sleeveless black leather biker jacket teamed with vertiginous Hello Kitty heels.

The images - by celebrated photographers Markus Klinko and Indrani  - will feature on the cover of  the special, limited-edition reissue of GaGa’s hit album, The Fame.
The 23-year-old New Yorker - who is already renowned for her outrageous fashion choices - is reportedly giving away a lock of her hair with every sale of the box-set.
According to her website, it will also include a pair of 3D glasses to view ‘forthcoming Gaga visuals’ and the definitive ‘book of Gaga’.

Kitty Ka-Ching!

I already knew that Hello Kitty stuff is gold.
Only I didn’t knew it could also be real silver…

Did you know that on Cook Islands in the South Pacific special feline coins were edited? In 2009, three outstanding 5$ coins beared the Hello Kitty London designs. As a result, there you go: 3x 5 Dollars - Hello Kitty Plays Polo, Red London Bus, Daniel at London Bridge.

The theme is London where Hello Kitty lives. The scenes of the city of London where she was born are depicted on the commemorative coins. We represent “Hello Kitty sightsee in London” and “Hello Kitty and the White Family live in London” with familiar scenes on the coins from past to present. Moreover, they have premium of 35th Anniversary of Hello Kitty.

Price of each of those little marvels: 199€ at numiscollect.eu

London, kitty London.

The Raspberry Cupcake went on a trip with her friends last weekend. Where to, you ask?

London, my dear!

As you may know, Hello Kitty was born on November 1st 1974 in suburban London, England, and she has been living there ever since with her family and friends. I had a chance to say hello to my favourite Kitty at Hamleys on Regent Street. As you can see on the picture I took, Hello Kitty seems to be quite in shape!

Now, as the Raspberry Cupcake likes other things than Hello Kitty too (yes, it IS possible!), let me just say that if you ever have the opportunity to visit London, and if you like male cookies as much as I do, go to Abercrombie & Fitch - that store is pure madness!!!
