Katy Perry Says Hello Kitty...

Ok. Ok. So we've been grumbling on about not being accredited for Oxegen and missing Lady Gaga at every likely papping location (apart from Punchestown). But at least one of our more avid snappers did manage to grab a few candid shots of Katy Perry and Pete Doherty as they exited stage left from the country...

Katy Perry

Looking like the Cat in the Hat, Katy Perry was all smiles hugging a Hello Kitty doll in Dublin airport last Monday morning. After a crazy busy weekend of festivals all across Britain and Ireland the I Kissed A Girl star seemed bright and bushy tailed as she prepared to board her early flight...

Katy Perry

With no signs of hangovers, muddy trousers, pregnancy, or rampant STI's like all of the rest of the loonies that braved the insane wet weather at the Punchestown outdoor festival. Nope. The hot American singer stopped, signed autographs, and chatted to fans before jetting out of soggy Eire. What a pro.

Pete Doherty

And Ms Perry wasn't the only Oxegen star looking fit and fresh at Dublin airport. Oh no. The very last man you'd expect to be sober and whistling Dixie in tune was also hanging at the departures terminal waiting for his bird to the leave the ground...

Pete Doherty

Yup. The infamously bould Pete Doherty was sober and under the influence of nothing more than a tobacco craving whilst waiting for his flight home. And here we were thinking he was a drugged-up heroin addled wildman... That's the very last time we take Pat Kenny's opinion of a celeb. Humph.

Pete Doherty & superfan Shirley

Whilst waiting for his plane, cheeky Pete even borrowed an iPOD from his Corkonian superfan Shirley and sang along to her Amy Winehouse mpegs to pass the time. So there you have it folks, Pete Doherty giving an impromptu performance at Dublin Airport... Who needs feckin' Oxegen accreditation? We're not bitter. Much. Ahem.
