Yup, purple and all, the 27-year-old “Part of Me” singer graces the coveted issue, lens by Carter Smith, while showing off her fantastic curves in a embroidered blush pink cap sleeve crepe dress by Bottega Veneta. Are you surprised that Mr. Joe Zee styled Katy in a glittering frock fit for a pop diva like herself? Because, I’m not and I love it!
Katy opens up in the magazine from her love life to her career and, of course, all of her adoring fans who follow everything she does. So, how does the singer feel about being role model to young girls? “I have no regrets…I’m not going to be everything to everyone. I can’t tell a person when it’s time for them to have sex. Or if they should have a cigarette…But I try to live my life with a lot of integrity, and, hopefully, that sends a message.”
With her ever changing colorful hair styled in super long sleek strands with blunt bangs, courtesy of hairstylist Renato Campora, Katy shows off all of her beauty details; from her super intense smoky eyes by makeup artist Jake Bailey to the creative Yin-Yang print on her nails thanks to nail genius Kimmie Kyees. Phew! I could totally go on and on about this cover, so how about I just stop myself now while you browse look the rest of the stellar frocks K.P. got hooked up with for the shoot and don’t forget to go pick up the issue for yourself!
