Hot Kiss from Katy

Since the song "I Kissed a Girl" became a hit on the airwaves, Katy Perry has been criticized to be promoting homosexuality. But did you know that this 24-year-old hot and sexy singer was born to pastor parents and grew up listening to gospel music? Sounds odd isn't it?

Born as Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson in Santa Barbara, California, Katy started singing in their church from age nine to sixteen. She also took voice and dance lessons, enrolling in at the Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara, and studying Italian opera for a little while.

At age 15, Katy was signed to the Christian music label Red Hill and released her first album as Katy Hudson in 2001. The Gospel-rock album was unsuccessful and she later changed her surname to Perry, which is the maiden name of her mother, because her name was too close to film actress Kate Hudson.

Hot and sexy Katy soon signed to Capitol Records and began recording tracks for her official mainstream debut album, One of the Boys. In 2007, the video of "Ur So Gay" was released and in 2008, the album's official lead single, "I Kissed a Girl", peaked at number one for seven weeks on the Billboard Hot 100. The second single, "Hot N Cold", was also a success, reaching number three on the charts.

Her album was a worldwide hit and has reached number nine on Billboard 200. Hot and sexy Katy even earned a nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 2009 Grammys and was nominated in five categories at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards. She won Best New Act at the 2008 MTV Europe Music Awards, in which she co-hosted, and Best International Female Artist at the 2009 BRIT Awards.

Hot and Sexy Reader

Hailed as "the best English-speaking film actress of her generation", 33-year-old Kate Winslet is undisputedly a genius on her craft. A recipient of numerous acting awards, she holds the record for being the youngest person to receive two Oscar nominations, a milestone she would maintain through her sixth nomination, in which she won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in The Reader.

Best remembered as Rose in the highest grossing film of all time, Titanic, the hot and sexy Kate first appeared in a tv commercial, followed by roles in several tv shows. In 1992, she was cast in Peter Jackson's Heavenly Creatures, earning her an Empire Award and London Critic's Circle Film Award for her performance. The following year, Kate auditioned for the adaptation of Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, featuring Emma Thompson, Hugh Grant, and Alan Rickman. The film was a financial and critical success, winning her both a BAFTA and a Screen Actors Guild Award.

The hot and sexy actress began filming James Cameron's Titanic in mid-1996, alongside Leonardo DiCaprio. The film grossed more than $1.8 billion worldwide, catapulting her into a commercial movie star and earning her a Europen Film Award. For the following years, Kate has appeared in several films including Quills (2000), Iris (2001), Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2003), Finding Neverland (2003), and Little Children (2006).

In 2007, Kate reunited with Leonardo DiCaprio to film Revolutionary Road, portraying a couple in a failing marriage in the 1950s. Directed by husband Sam Mendes, the movie gave Kate her Golden Globe Award for Best Actress. In her recent film The Reader, she portrayed a former Nazi concentration camp guard who has an affair with a young man, in which she earned her sixth Academy Award nomination and went on to win the Best Actress Award, the BAFTA Award for Best Actress, a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress, and a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress.

Not only that, this hot and sexy celebrity is also an occasional singer, with her single What If from the soundtrack of Christmas Carol: The Movie reaching #1 in Ireland and #6 in UK. She also participated in a duet on the Sandra Boynton CD Dog Train, sang in the 2006 film Romance & Cigarettes, and recorded an aria for the soundtrack of her film Heavenly Creatures.
