Last week, there was an interview with a museum curator working on a Hello Kitty(R) project. I have the pleasure of working with this property in my professional endeavors, and I was surprised to hear that Hello Kitty(R) is not a cat, she is a little girl. Per the Sanrio company, HK has her own pet cat! I always assumed that she was a cat that dressed with style, but she wears cat ear headbands like pop icon Taylor Swift. Ms. Kitty also lived in London, where she attends elementary school. My mind is truly blown by this bombshell.
