I loved Hello Kitty!

I was head over heels for Hello Kitty as a child. There was a store at my local mall in my hometown called "Heaven" that turned me on to the cute little kitty. I used up quite a bit of allowance in that store buying various dolls and trinkets every week. Here are some facts that you may not know about this American Idol:

Born: November 1, 1974

Hometown: London, by way of Japan

Sibling: Twin sis, Mimmy

Hobbies: Traveling, music, reading

Celeb Entourage: Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, Carrie Underwwod, Mariah Carey, Suri Cruise and Heidi Kum's daughter Leni, to name a few.

Pop-Culture Honor: Last year, she was the star of her own art show.

Fav Animal: Goldfish and other small, cute things.

Life Lesson: You can never have too many good friends.

Hot Spot: Hello Kitty has an official theme park in Tokyo.

Wear her: On bling, pj's and more.

See her: As a balloon at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Fun Fact: She weighs the same as 3 apples.

Claim to Fame: She's one of the few cartoon characters cool enough for both kids and their moms to love.

I love to see my daughter enjoying Hello Kitty like I did as a child. She has a bit of the new and some blasts from the past!
