Katy Perry covers the new issue of
Rolling Stone magazine, and the 29-year-old singer gives a refreshingly candid interview with senior writer Brian Hiatt about everything from Kim Kardashian's butt to the possibility of being a single mom. What?!
On her controversial decision to have big-bootied mummies dance onstage for her Prism tour, Katy tells the mag:
"As far as the mummy thing, I based it on plastic surgery. Look at someone like Kim Kardashian or Ice-T's wife, Coco. Those girls aren't African-American. But it's actually a representation of our culture wanting to be plastic, and that's why there's bandages and it's mummies. I thought that would really correlate well together… It came from an honest place. If there was any inkling of anything bad, then it wouldn't be there, because I'm very sensitive to people."
So what's her take on "cultural appropriation"? The singer says, "I guess I'll just stick to baseball and hot dogs, and that's it. I know that's a quote that's gonna come to f*ck me in the *ss, but can't you appreciate a culture? I guess, like, everybody has to stay in their lane? I don't know."
As far as having kids someday, Katy proclaims that she'd be fine doing that without being married...or even involved with a guy!
"I want to be doing that in the right time. And that's not in the next two years, you know? Maybe it's in a five-year plan, but I need to really be able to focus 100 percent of my attention on it. I don't really want to take the child on tour. Not until, like, birth through five is over. I don't need a dude. I mean, Neil [Patrick Harris] and David, their twins are beautiful. It's 2014! We are living in the future; we don't need anything. I don't think I'll have to, but we'll see. I'm not anti-men. I love men. But there is an option if someone doesn't present himself."
We love her honesty!

Charlie Hunnam was noticeably absent from the Sons of Anarchy panel at Comic-Con in San Diego on Sunday, but thanks to some creative thinking from key cast members and SOA executive producer Paris Barclay, the actor sorta made an appearance.
Hunnam wrote the above video while Barclay directed it, and in it we see the sexy blonde star getting a massage from co-star Mark Boone Junior while Tommy Flanagan does his nails and Kim Coates serves cocktails. Hunnam apologizes for missing out while his masseuse mocks him for doing a Vogue shoot, and from the dialogue to the feathered fan at the end, this is just way too over the top for us. Perhaps the biker boys should stick to their day jobs? Then again, this is the FX show's final season...

Better after babies!
Kim Zolciak is a mother-of-six, but she looked better than most 20-year-olds in these bikini snapshots she posted during a day of swimming with her children.
"Obsessed with @beachbunnyswimwear took my boys swimming today! They missed daddy throwing them up in the air and when I attempted to do it ... Well.. Let's just say they didn't go very far!! #nomakeup #natural," she captioned one of the Instagram photos.
In another, the reality star poses in a different swimsuit and reveals that her body has always looked this good! "Another @beachbunnyswimwear I tried on today!!! Im obsessed with swimsuits! I won't even tell u how many I own!! #beenthesamesizemyentirelife Even after 6 kids!! #grateful #curvalicious," she explained to her followers.
We have to wonder if she got a tummy tuck after her last pregnancy, though, because her abs look too good to be true!

Ray J is sawwwy!
The troubled rapper, who was recently charged with 10 crimes after a drunken incident in Beverly Hills, has a lot to be sorry for. And he knows it. In his newest song, "Never Should Have Did That," the singer laments his past plethora of past mistakes, including a clear reference to his sex tape with ex Kim Kardashian.
Ray J doesn't leave much to the imagination when he lists off all the things he says he wishes he hadn't done: popping pills, cheating, and "f*cking b*tches on camera." Aww we all hope our ex boyfriends talk about us in such a respectful way!
But that's not all Ray J regrets -- apparently after the fact, Ray thinks it was probably not a good idea to "F*ck a ho without a condom" because "Now this b*tch is gonna have my kid." Awww that's a sweet way to talk about your unborn child's mother! Umm ... guess someone was too busy making bad choices to go to sex ed class ...
We have a feeling once Kanye hears his Kimmy K diss -- Ray J's going to have a whole new world of regret.

After Adrienne Bailon dissed ex-boyfriend Rob Kardashian in a recent interview with
Latina magazine, Rob's big sister fired back with several nasty tweets.
Bailon opened up about her relationship with Rob, but rather than taking the high road, she said she believed appearing on
Keeping Up With the Kardashians had harmed her career. She added that she didn't understand why people took Rob's side when they split, noting that he cheated on her and was "disloyal."
Bailon, who dated Kardashian from 2007 to 2009, continued, "[I didn't think] anyone would even care. But they did, and do. To this day, people will still say, 'You ruined Rob's life!' and I'll think, 'Damn, I was still playing with Barbie dolls when I met him.'"
What did mama bear Kim have to say?
"Funny how she says being with a Kardashian hurt her career yet the only reason she has this article is bc she is talking about a Kardashian ... #LetItGoooooLetItGoooooo (FROZEN VOICE) ... So sad when people try to kick my brother when he is down #FamilyForever."
Don't mess with Kimmy K!
