Attention fans of strawberry hair accessories: You’re about to lose Katy Perry forever. Well, actually, you’ll probably have her in your camp until about October, because that’s when she’ll begin work on the follow-up to her breakthrough “One of the Boys” album, which she pledges will be a strawberry-free affair. “I definitely want to make a follow-up pop, fun record.

‘NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys on the same album? No, it’s not a new edition of Now That’s What I Call Music!
