The 411 On Katy Perry's Costumes, Straight From Her Stylist
If you haven’t seen Katy Perry: Part Of Me 3D, then we suggest you put on your best Cool-Whip bra (don't pretend you don't have one), shake off your bright-blue wig, pack some cupcakes, and head to the theatre, posthaste. The film itself is like being on an exhilarating amusement ride; “fun” being an immense understatement, with all this largely in part to the bursting colors, amazing sets, and fantastical pomp of Katy’s costumes. Enter: Johnny Wujek. As Katy’s stylist, Johnny is responsible for some of her most iconic wardrobe moments and is in equal parts creative genius and super-friendly guy. If that wasn’t enough, Johnny will also be gracing our TV screens in August for the new season of America's Next Top Model, replacing Jay Manuel as creative director. We got him on the phone to find out all about his new gig, Katy’s spinning boobs, and candy-covered Speedos.
So, is Katy as amazingly fun as she seems?
"She is 20 times funner than that movie makes her look. She's just a great person — all around very generous and all about having fun with everything."
What's your favorite scene from Part Of Me, the 3D film?
"All the scenes that I'm in! [Laughs] I loved how all the performances turned out. It was so big and colorful, and loved all the fashion stuff. I loved it all because I wasn't actually on a large part of the tour and so I got to see all of it. And, I love grandma!"
Are Katy Perry's spinning boobs your masterpiece?
"Yes ma'am. We desiged a whole bunch of costumes for the first Euro leg, and we were doing a U.S. tour after that, so we were talking about making the cosumes bigger and better. It was 'how can we put a twist on things?' and that's how we came up with the mechanical spinning boobs."
