Katy Perry can’t wait for motherhood

The Freeman

CEBU, Philippines - Katy Perry is sounding off on all that controversy surrounding her big-bootied backup dancers.

The 29-year-old singer got some heat earlier this summer for featuring backup dancers in her tour that were dressed as mummies with giant padded butts. Some called the costumes racist while others thought they were just harmless getups.

“As far as the mummy thing, I based it on plastic surgery,” Perry explains in the latest issue of Rolling Stone magazine. “Look at someone like Kim Kardashian or Ice-T’s wife, Coco. Those girls aren’t African-American. But it’s actually a representation of our culture wanting to be plastic, and that’s why there’s bandages and it’s mummies. I thought that would really correlate well together. It came from an honest place. If there was any inkling of anything bad, then it wouldn’t be there, because I’m very sensitive to people.”

“I guess I’ll just stick to baseball and hot dogs, and that’s it,” she added. “I know that’s a quote that’s gonna come to bite me in the ass, but can’t you appreciate a culture? I guess, like, everybody has to stay in their lane? I don’t know.”

Cultural controversy aside, the Rolling Stone cover girl also opened up about motherhood and wanting to have children in the future. “I want to be doing that in the right time,” she says. “And that’s not in the next two years, you know? Maybe it’s in a five-year plan, but I need to really be able to focus 100 percent of my attention on it. I don’t really want to take the child on tour.”

“I don’t need a dude,” the singer added. “I mean, Neil [Patrick Harris] and David [Burtka], their twins are beautiful. It’s 2014! We are living in the future; we don’t need anything. I don’t think I’ll have to, but we’ll see. I’m not anti-men. I love men. But there is an option if someone doesn’t present himself.”

 

Not consumed by relationships

If there’s one thing Chloe Grace Moretz isn’t focused on at 17-years-old, it’s the crazy world of teenage dating.

“It’s a tough age to fall in love: people change so quickly,” the actress reveals in the new issue of Flare magazine. “I don’t want to have to feel like I have to watch my step, because I’m 17 and I shouldn’t have to.”

It’s a mindset she tries to share with her close friends. Oftentimes, however, they don’t follow her lead. “I’m like, Dude, you’re wasting away your entire high-school years, and now you’re going to waste away your college years,” she tells the publication. “You’re going to spend your entire life in a relationship and then you’re going to get married…and then you’re dead!”

She adds, “So you lived your life in a relationship! That’s not my style.”

Instead of focusing so much on a boyfriend, Moretz is engrossed with her movie career and the fashion world. While she loves wearing anything “fun and interesting,” she advises people not to judge a book by its cover, or in this case, a star by her outfit.

“If someone wears a crazy outfit, they’re automatically a crazy person,” she explains. “If you wear a tame outfit, you’re automatically a prude.”

That same judgmental nature of the fashion world is also found when paparazzi catch the star with male friends. “When you’re with someone who’s just your friend, then the paparazzi take photos, but when you’re out with your boyfriend, they never find out,” she says. “It’s like, ‘You guys are so dumb; you’re missing your opportunity!’”

Robert Pattinson gets candid on Kristen Stewart breakup

Robert Pattinson  is once again opening up about his famous ex-girlfriend Kristen Stewart.

In a new interview with Esquire UK, the 28-year-old British actor reflects on the public’s intense fascination with his and Stewart’s relationship, which ultimately ended after Stewart was caught cheating on him. “S—t happens, you know?” the “Twilight” star laughed. “It’s just young people...it’s normal!”

“The hardest part was talking about it afterwards,” Pattinson added. “Because when you talk about other people, it affects them in ways you can’t predict,” he says. “It’s like that scene in ‘Doubt,’ where he’s talking about how to take back gossip? They throw all those feathers from a pillow into the sky and you’ve got to go and collect all the feathers.”

Even though he and Stewart are no longer together, Pattinson is still the subject of constant attention from the media and paparazzi. “I don’t understand why,” he told the magazine. “I think it goes through periods where you’re assigned ‘this is the guy to follow.’ But whenever I see a bunch of paparazzi hanging out, I always think, ‘Oh God, what have they found out!’ Oh, that love child! I totally forgot!”

It’s hard to remember when Pattinson wasn’t an A-list celebrity, but the hunky star remembers the first time he felt like he’d officially made a name for himself in Hollywood.

“I remember when it happened,” he said. “I was going to clubs in L.A. and you had to call the promoters ahead of time to get on the guest list. But one time I forgot to call, and I was on the list anyway. That’s when I knew. I showed up with mustard down my T-shirt and they’re like giving me the wink, ‘Yeah, man, you’re on the list.’” (FREEMAN)
