Have you ever had a breast cancer scare? I have. Twice. That is why I am avid self-checker. For those who aren't as dedicated...

Our wolfpack is hot. Savvy?

Riddle me this: Katy Perry's Popularity?

Ever since the release of Teenage Dream, I don't like her. I don't like her music anymore. I don't get her style. I think her image is contrived. I think her songs are convoluted. I think Katy Perry went from being a cool new artist who like cherry chapstick, to a fake with frosting covered boobies.

In fact, the only Katy Perry attributes I find redeemable are a) husband, Russell Brand b) her cracky/shatter nail polish stuff and c) Glee-cast covers of her song.

Am I alone in this?

Am I missing something?

I must be.

Cause her songs continue to rise on the charts. She performed at the Grammys. And she's even on the cover of Elle this month.

I just don't get it.

Let's take the Fireworks song. The chorus is admittedly catchy, but the verse lyrics ruin it for me. Do you ever feel like a plastic bag?

Is this a joke? Has somebody been watching American Beauty on HBO?

No, Katy, I don't ever feel like a plastic bag. But riddle me this: do you ever feel like pulling a Tanya Harding on Lady Gaga so that you can rise to the top and claim all the disenfranchised youths as your fans? Yea, I bet you do.

Well, you clearly now know how I feel. And I know Neil feels the same way. My sister shares in my confusion. In fact, this is what we looked like when one of my good friends told me she loved California Gurls and thought it was just the best summer jam. Come again?

But now I really really want to know what you guys think.

(1) Do you like Katy Perry? Her songs? Her cupcake ta-tahs?

(1b) If so, what am I missing? Do I need to give her another chance like I did with Kesha? (Tik tok gave me a headache, but We R Who We Are has caused me to dance in elevators.)

Or like me,

(2) Are you confused by her growing popularity? Does Teenage Dream make you want to stab yourself in the jaw?

I love to be right. And I love when people agree with me (don't look at me like that, you know you love it too). But I also can admit when I'm wrong. And I'm all for second and third chances. So tell me, does Katy Perry deserve one?

Tell me the truth. I can handle it.

Hot or Not?

We don't want to need this
much airbrushing to look good.

You may have noticed that things are looking a little bit different around here.  We changed the layout today -- mostly because I was bored with the old one.  And for those of you who enjoyed the ever-evolving wolfpack banner, I'll continue to add the new wolfpack members under the "Evolution of a Wolfpack" tab.  We wouldn't want to deny these fine individuals the honor of a place on our blog.

What do you think, wildcats?

Yay or Nay? Good or Bad? Tea for Two or Tea Party?  Emmanuelle Chriqui or Emmanuel Lewis?  Hip or Hot Mess? Sex and the City 1 or Sex and the City 2?

We need your feedback.
