Katy Perry Takes Vow of Celibacy

katy_perry_fhmI wonder if she will go down (so to speak) in the Celibacy Hall of Fame like Jessica Simpson and Britney Spears did.

Katy “I Kissed A Girl” Perry has vowed not to kiss — or do anything else with — anybody in 2009.

“I’ve actually taken a vow of celibacy this year,” she tells the new issue of TV Guide. “No kissing anyone. Just my cat, Kitty Purry.”

We’ll see about that. Just two months ago she pledged that she will “always be provocative” because of her unfettered sexuality:

The ‘I Kissed A Girl’ singer has slammed suggestions she is controversial solely to attract attention, and insists her lyrics are racy because she is a naturally sexual person.

She said: “Some people are dying to be offended by anything. To me, it’s not anything besides tongue-in-cheek. But I don’t always want to be controversial. I’ll always be provocative, but that’s different.

“I don’t have a censor – my brain and mouth work simultaneously. It may not always be politically correct or agreeable, but I say what I think. And it has served me well so far.”

‘Cause see, I kind of think she’s controversial solely to attract attention. Snooze. Next.

    How about a vow to be silent?

  2. 2 Chronic Malanga Jan 23rd, 2009 at 1:34 pm

    She’s denying that she said this now.

    I second the vow to be silent.

  3. 3 Mel G Jan 23rd, 2009 at 1:47 pm

    She didn’t deny saying it…she said it was a joke.

  4. 4 Hurricane Jan 23rd, 2009 at 1:48 pm

    Yeah, she said she was joking about being celibate. God forbid anyone thinks of her as not being a whore.

    Oh to go back to the days where people denied being skanks and sluts.

  5. 5 Annie Jan 23rd, 2009 at 2:07 pm

    Meh. Is anyone surprised though? Her job is to entertain, and hey, we’re slightly….remotely….kindasorta…entertained by her. At least enough to read about it on deceiver!

  6. 6 Pastafarian Jan 23rd, 2009 at 2:11 pm

    She’s so cute in that picture. Why would anyone that cute want to be celibate? I just don’t understand. I wouldn’t want to be celibate. I have a hard enough time as it is, girls throwing themselves at me in the store aisles. I have to tell them “can’t I just come to the dollar store to get a haircut like everyone else?” It’s so easy for girls. I want to be a girl. I mean, I want to be a girl, wait…SHUT UP!

  7. 7 StrawberryGirl Jan 23rd, 2009 at 2:29 pm

    That’ll be easy since she just broke up with her boyfriend. Until she finds the next one.

  8. 8 Queen Bee Jan 23rd, 2009 at 2:36 pm

    Where’s JRod? I am dying to know what he would do?

  9. 9 winewife Jan 23rd, 2009 at 3:36 pm

    She named her cat after herself?

  10. 10 jenn Jan 23rd, 2009 at 3:53 pm

    My thought too Queen Bee… would he hit that?

  11. 11 Meg 2.0 Jan 23rd, 2009 at 4:20 pm

    She obviously thinks because she has one song and Perez Hilton jacks off to her in order for free good press, the whole universe should bow down and kiss her ass. Her ego is as big as a Kardashian ass. Of course she would name her cat after herself!

    Done with this bitch, NEXT.

  12. 12 Lisa Jan 23rd, 2009 at 4:31 pm

    Come on, she is a big follower, I mean friend, of Perez Hilton….so you know she isn’t giving any.

  13. 13 Habanada Jan 23rd, 2009 at 6:23 pm

    She looks like she’s got one heck of a cramp in that picture.

  14. 14 Les Paul Jan 23rd, 2009 at 9:19 pm

    I guess that’s why she’s biting down so hard on that key on that necklace (or whatever it is) … to ease the pain.

  15. 15 Minnow Jan 23rd, 2009 at 9:24 pm

    Looks to me like she’s doing the Laverne & Shirley exercize…

    We must, we must!
    We must increase our bust!
    The bigger the better, the tighter the sweater.
    The boys depend on us!

  16. 16 DR.FUNK Jan 24th, 2009 at 12:00 am

    “Behind The Music” in 5years.

  17. 17 Chronic Malanga Jan 24th, 2009 at 3:43 am

    We still don’t know WWJRD (What would Jrod do?).

    She annoys me and I can’t stand her “singing”. I hope Lily Allen kicks her ass. :P

  18. 18 jac Jan 24th, 2009 at 5:38 am

    she said this was a joke and that she was kidding.

  19. 19 This Guy Jan 24th, 2009 at 1:56 pm

    It’s one hell of a clever cat name, though.

  20. 20 Rocko Jan 24th, 2009 at 2:01 pm

    Of course it’s a joke. Her career is a joke. I hope somebody covers “Hot N’ Cold” so I don’t feel bad about thinking that song is good.

  21. 21 Minnow Jan 25th, 2009 at 1:27 pm

    Good News Rocko, Kidz Bop just covered Hot N Cold.

    Of course, that brings about annoyances of a whole new degree. My 3 year old thinks it’s a pretty bitchin song though. He was walking around yesterday singing a’capella:

    You hot den you cold.
    You yes den you no.
    You in den you out.
    An den you be up, den you fallin’ down.

  22. 22 letinstar Jan 25th, 2009 at 5:31 pm

    er….who cares?

  23. 23 Kelsey Jan 25th, 2009 at 7:01 pm

    DRFUNK- More like Where are they now in 5 years.

  24. 24 AmyJ Jan 25th, 2009 at 9:39 pm

    I too, am waiting to see if JRod will hit that or not.

    I also think she sings the songs she sings for attention, who hasnt kissed a girl?

  25. 25 jenn Jan 26th, 2009 at 8:50 am

    I think JRod has taken a vow of silence

  26. 26 Jrod Jan 26th, 2009 at 11:31 am

    No, I would definetly hit it! Sorry, I have been under the weather!

  27. 27 Holly Won't Jan 26th, 2009 at 11:38 am

    Watch out — Jrod has some catching up to do!

  28. 28 MC Mom Jan 26th, 2009 at 1:44 pm

    Hooray, now we know WWJD!

    And winewife, I’m with you…WTF on the cat’s name? Self-centered much?

    Minnow, your son is too cute! I’m tempted to play “Hot and Cold” for my 6-year-old but for the line about how “you PMS like a bitch…I should know.”

    Call me Prude Mom if you want but I just totally don’t feel like explaining either PMS or the b-word to my daughter right now.

  29. 29 Dan Jan 26th, 2009 at 3:43 pm

    totally tired of this attention seeker. wanna see some more stuff on those idiots PETA!!!

  30. 30 Minnow Jan 26th, 2009 at 4:37 pm

    See, that’s the joy of 3 years old versus 6. At 3, the vocabulary is a little limited. So the verses sound more like:

    You mwaw de doo dooo
    An da fee a bwah-boo

    The chorus on the other hand, is full of preschool fun. Katy’s like Dr. Seuss in trampy heels.

    Oh and our radio station plays “you PMS like a chick”. So far the older two haven’t asked what PMS is or why chickens suffer from it.

    BTW, we learned our lesson with the first child who at 5 loved listening to The Barenaked Ladies with daddy, until we heard him singing in the bathtub:

    I love you more, than I did the week before, I discovered alcohol…

    Not our best parenting moment.

  31. 31 Rocko Jan 26th, 2009 at 5:40 pm

    Kidz Bop? Okay, I’m just going to add the song to my iTunes and list the artist as Pink. No one will be able to tell the difference.

  32. 32 MC Mom Jan 26th, 2009 at 5:57 pm

    Heh heh. Our friends’ son loves the Barenaked Ladies but they call them the BLs to avoid embarrassing school comments like “I love Barenaked Ladies!”

    Two summers ago I took my very verbal then 4-year-old on a flight back from DC to Boston. At the time she loved ‘Avenue Q,’ particularly the song ‘My Girlfriend Who Lives in Canada.’

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7njFzd_cTN4

    She sang the last verse of the song at full volume. On a regional jet. With 50 other people on board. Granted, she thought the last line of the song was ‘And I can’t wait to see her pussy again!” But still.

    Parent of the Year, right here.

  33. 33 MC Mom Jan 27th, 2009 at 4:08 pm

    Minnow, I wrote a delightful response to your comment describing my best Parent of the Year moment a couple of years ago (involving my then 4-yr-old and singing ‘Avenue Q’ on a plane) but it looks like our esteemed Deceiver editors declined to publish it.

    In their defense, it did contain the p-word… *embarrassed blush*

  34. 34 Holly Won't Jan 27th, 2009 at 4:09 pm

    No joke — it got spammed out. Restored now.

  35. 35 MC Mom Jan 27th, 2009 at 5:38 pm

    Thanks, Holly. In my own defense, my kid thought the song referred to the girlfriend’s pet cat. I’ll be more careful with language from now on. ;-)

  36. 36 Christina X Jan 28th, 2009 at 2:50 am

    Every time a celebrity makes a statement they can’t back up, you can always rely on their defenders insisting that it was just a “joke”.

    Katy Perry’s just an identity crisis.

    Who’s the real Katy Perry? Is she the Christian soft rock musician? Is she the bisexual free spirit with no inhibitions about her raw sexuality? The comedian? The reformed born again virgin? Stay tuned until next week, when her personality changes again.

    I think that for the sake of her generation of media whore pop stars, Katy Perry should’ve kept her mouth shut, because she basically outed herself and all the other “edgy” pop tarts that they’ll say, do, or wear whatever their managers tell them to.

    And as if Katy Perry really believes she’s risking her image by being honest about her sexuality. She knows exactly what she’s doing. All she’s doing is meeting halfwgay between “defying” society and garnering attention from a male audience. That’s what all of them do.

  37. 37 Beige Feb 18th, 2009 at 9:40 am

    You know what would REALLY be risky and edgy and “raw” these days? Totally NOT riding everything with hair, that’s what. Any celebrity NOT being chased down the street by his or her own crabs is boldly exploring some undiscovered country these days. I wish someone would try it.
