Katy Perry and Other Pink Ladies

Katy plays a nerd in her new video, but we aren't fooled.

Forget the smurfy color blue -- Katy Perry has dyed her lovely locks bright pink!

It seemed that the singer was going to stick with being a blonde bombshell like Smurfette, but instead she's decided to think pink. However, she's not the only celeb that has taken looking pretty in pink to the extreme. Here's a look at a few other sexy stars that have embraced the ultra-girly color:

Pink

Now that she's a mom, this musician has gotten a little more low-maintenance by sporting a short, platinum blonde 'do. But back in the day the party just couldn't get started without her neon pink rocker chick locks, and it seems that Pink somewhat misses those colorful times. She recently tweeted about being a mother, "My life was once whiskey, tears and cigarettes. Now it's snot tears and the color of poop. I do miss the whiskey, though!"

Nicki Minaj

Nicki has donned pink hair on numerous occasions, including on her freaky Pink Friday album cover. She also sported a cotton candy-like poofy 'do while visiting the BBC in London earlier this year, and the living Barbie rocks a cool! half-bl onde, half-pink hairstyle in her "Super Bass" music video. So when it comes to the eye-catching color, Nicki is definitely the reigning princess of pink.

Lady Gaga

Gaga shares Nicki's love of eccentric fashions and multiple personalities, so it's not surprising that she has also rocked pink locks multiple times in the past. Back in February she wore a short wig for her Vogue cover, completing her look with a surprisingly simple white gown, dark lipstick, and no eyebrows (she almost looked like an extraterrestrial from the home planet of Perry's "E.T." character, which is actually pretty normal by Gaga standards).

Lily Allen

Katy's British counterpart has beaten her to sporting neon pink hair, having given the look a go back in 2008. However, she didn't have to wait weeks to get the perfect pink color -- the pop tart said she did the dye job herself in her own bathroom.

Gwen Stefani

This blonde bombshell seems to be partly responsible for making pink such a popular hair color. She first sported a bright-hued 'do back in the 90s, taking her pink hair to the extreme in No Doubt's "Ex-Girlfriend" music video by sporting big, bold dreadlocks. Gwen seems to like sticking to plain platinum blonde these days, instead opting to let her kids try hair dye -- little rocker Kingston Rossdale was recently photographed sporting a brig! ht blue Mohawk (Gwen has got to be the coolest mom in the world).

So do you think pink is the perfect color for Katy, or are some of these other celebs better at pulling off the extreme hair hue? Sound off in the comments!
