Clad in pink from head to toe, she says some might find her weird but she doesn’t care. To her she’s “fierce and fabulous”.

It was on her birthday in June 1980 that Kitten Kay Sera first dressed herself in a full-on pink outfit and 38 years later it’s still the only colour she wears.

Kitten, dubbed The Pink Lady of Hollywood, is originally from Texas and has made quite a name for herself in the industry, Business Insider writes.

She and her pink-coloured pooch Miss Kisses have appeared in TV shows and movies together and Kitten even recorded a few tracks of her own.

Her single Sex Kitten even had Beyoncé singing back-up vocals, Cosmopolitan adds the 53-year-old.

Paris Hilton and Ruby Rose have both done photoshoots in Kitten’s one-bedroom West Hollywood apartment, which she calls the Pink Pepto Palace.

“I don’t even do 50 shades of pink. I do a million shades of pink,” Kitten says proudly. “Pink is everything to me. Pink is compassion – it’s powerful, it’s punk, it’s soft, it’s flirty, it’s girlie, it’s everything. It is all. I can’t say that about any other colour.”

Kitten’s pink obsession runs so deep, even her cleaning supplies are pink. Her toothbrush, hair curlers and every other small detail in her life comes in some hue of the colour.

“I don’t ever venture from my colour ever,” she says. “You couldn’t pay me a million dollars to do another colour. That’s how devoted I am.”

According to The Sun, the Kitten was officially named the World’s Pinkest Person by Ripley’s Believe It or Not.

A well-deserved title considering she estimates she’s easily spent more than R13 million on pink items.

Kitten explains she buys the same things as everyone else, the only difference is that she buys it in pink.

“Shoes, wardrobe, bedding, purses, etc, that’s basically R368 000 a year roughly spent.”

She even dyes her dog pink, using a vet-approved beetroot juice dye.

The only non-pink items in her home of 18 years are her popcorn ceiling, which her landlord has requested she leave untouched, and her toilet paper, Cosmopolitan writes.

Although she does have three pink rolls of toilet paper, they remain unused because they’re hard to come by and have to last.

“It smells like grandma’s attic, but so what? It’s pink!” she jokes about the interestingly coloured toilet essential she bought on eBay.

“I’m the world’s pinkest person and my life is devoted to that colour.”
