I consider my taste in wine to be pretty, well, non-judgmental. I mean, I will savor the hell out of a nice Barolo, but if you hand me a glass of cheap champagne, I’ll guzzle that too. (Hell, I have even been known to enjoy Franzia.) That said, wine made by pretty pink pussycat Hello Kitty gives me pause. I don’t even think my palate could stomach the sweetness this booze must contain. [L.A. Weekly] Keep reading »
Seriously, will Hello Kitty ever cease to be hilarious when associated with tampons, toilets, weaponry, or life-threatening mechanical devices? Survey says: no. [Geekologie] Keep reading »
In Taiwan, Eva Airlines has decked out an Airbus Hello Kitty-style. Think this would relax fearful flyers or make them more freaked-out? Hmm … we wonder if the safety card features HK illustrations as well. If Hello Kitty can survive an airplane crash … [PSFK] Keep reading »
You can’t deny that Lady Gaga certainly has her own interesting fashion sense. But now, on top of her latest antics (like selling a piece of her hair to fans), she’s taking on the style of Hello Kitty. Eh, somehow we’re not surprised. It’s all for the character’s 35th birthday, yet the pictures by Markus Klinko and Indrani will appear on the cover of her special, limited-edition reissue album. You can also catch them in Los Angeles, on display at the Three Apples birthday exhibition. Maybe the precious Sanrio kitty will make an appearance during her tour? [Daily Mail] Keep reading »
We’re not so sure this Hello Kitty jacket, worn by Elen Rives, was the best way to celebrate the brand’s 35th anniversary. You can’t really wear Hello Kitty unless she’s dead, right? [London, 10/29/09] Keep reading »
Check out this latest version of Hello Kitty: It’s anatomically correct, sort of. If you’ve always wondered what, exactly, is inside of Miss Kitty, this is your chance to find out. The “Anatomy” figures are the result of a collaboration with Dr. Romanelli and come in white, pink, and blue or tan and red. If you peek inside her belly, it looks like she has a heart with a bow, two lavender lungs, and a lot of intestines, among other happy guts. She’s anatomically adorable.

Hello Baby! Just when you thought the Hello Kitty craze couldn’t go any further … oh, yes, they really went there this time. Case in point: the Hello Kitty maternity hospital in Taiwan, where moms-to-be are attended to by nurses in pink uniforms, the newborns are swaddled in HK blankets, and bubbly Sanrio images decorate the place. To add to the creepiness, babies also get a pair of whiskers as a souvenir. The cartoony facility is supposed to ease the stress of giving birth, but the first thing that came to mind when we saw this was the horrific image of an obstetrician wearing a giant Hello Kitty head sitting between your spread legs saying, “Here kitty, kitty.” Check out some more pics after the jump!
