Teenage Dream

1) Much of the video for this week's song takes place in a convertible and on the beach. How's the weather where you are? Would you be comfortable riding around with the top down today? it is sunny, humid and on the way to mid-80s: it would be a top down day

2) This video was filmed all around Katy Perry's hometown of Santa Barbara. Amtrak runs through Santa Barbara via The Pacific Surfliner. Tell us about a memorable train trip. I took a train from Brussels to Paris through beautiful pastoral countryside

3) Katy sings that her boyfriend thinks she's funny, even when she gets the punchline wrong. Do you think you're a better joke-teller or audience? I am far better audience

4) Her "teenage dream" lover is shown working out with a heavy bag. When is the last time you visited a gym? uh... I truly don't remember

5) Katy changes her hair a lot. She's gone from long black hair to cropped blonde hair with stops at red, green and purple. Today, are you having a good hair day? I am not, however, I do have a visit with my hair wizard next week

6) Katy thinks dimples are "irresistible" and can't help poking a finger when a dimpled friend smiles. Do you have dimples? no

7) Two of Katy's fragrances (Meow and Purr) are sold in cat-shaped bottles. Are you wearing a scent as you answer these questions? I am wearing Live Joyously

8) Katy's favorite dessert is ice cream (specifically Cold Stone Creamery's Birthday Cake Remix). What's the last dessert you ate? one day last week I had ice cream (Ben & Jerry's Tonight Dough)

9) Random question: How often do you change your bedsheets? every time I go to the laundromat--so roughly every two weeks
