Katy Perry Reveals Extreme Vogue Cover Prep Diet

Katy Perry told Jay Leno on Friday, "I did a lot of my own prepping... I kind of went on a cleanse, I did a lot of stuff like vitamins and supplements, I changed my coffee to green tea, I didn't drink alcohol for three months." She continued, "I was really in the zone, I just wanted to be glowing for that cover." And when she says she "did a lot" of vitamins and supplements, she means it.

Not content to rely on Vogue's photoshop team to her make her look cover-worthy for the fashion bible's July issue, Katy Perry went on an extreme three-month cleanse to prep for her Annie Leibovitz shoot.

The pop star told Jay Leno on Friday, "I did a lot of my own prepping... I kind of went on a cleanse, I did a lot of stuff like vitamins and supplements, I changed my coffee to green tea, I didn't drink alcohol for three months." She continued, "I was really in the zone, I just wanted to be glowing for that cover."

And when she says she "did a lot" of vitamins and supplements, she means it. US Weekly alerted us to a tweet from Perry mid-cleanse back in May, in which she's holding up giant ziplock bags full of 'em--we're talking Suzanne Somers style dosages.

Think it paid off?

Why Does Katy Perry Keep Dressing Like Children's Toys?

Katy Perry is serious about being a kid at heart. In her latest video, "California Gurls," she brings Hasbro's Candy Land to life. Of course, Perry's Candy Land is a bit different (read: smuttier) than the wholesome '50s board game: Snoop Dogg reigns over the confectionery kingdom and we're pretty sure Princess Lolly never ecstatically sprayed whipped cream from her cleavage. But we couldn't help but notice that dressing like kid's toys has become a trend for Perry. Take a look....

Katy Perry Wants You To Smell Like Her Kitty

It was only a matter of time. Katy Perry will launch her first fragrance, called Purr, in November at Nordstrom and nordstrom.com, WWD is reporting. The fragrance was inspired by a Catwoman costume Perry wears on stage. Fittingly, the bottle is kitty-shaped. And despite Perry's penchant for the tooth-achingly saccharine, Purr won't smell like candy or Hello Kitty's garden (whatever that smells like). It has "top notes of peach nectar, forbidden apple and green bamboo; a heart of jasmine blossom, pink freesia and Bulgarian rose, and a drydown of vanilla orchid, white amber, creamy sandalwood and musk," according to WWD, and will sell for $45 for a 3.4 oz. cat bottle.
