We reported recently that Grammy-nominated singer Katy Perry had said she was taking a vow of celibacy after her breakup with Gym Class Heroes’ Travis McCoy. Well, the singer was evidently just kidding. In a recent interview with OK!, the singer backtracks on her original no sex comment, saying, "Celibacy for a whole year? Are you kidding? I’d rather die. I’m a continual prankster and a jokester. I don’t think people realize how silly I can be. I said that as a joke."

How does someone end up not having sex for 15 years? By accident, swears writer Kit Naylor on Salon.com.

We've all had dry spells, but man, 15 years is one hell of a dry spell!

Naylor is a middleaged woman, a self-described recluse with two cats and no kids. She calls herself "a spinster long past my sell-by date." Spinster! We think that's a sexist way to refer to herself, but nevertheless, we admire how she got that way: she wants to be in love to make love. It seems that by eschewing casual sex and being committed to personal … Read More

"Kiersten, how is that possible? Come on, that can't be true," Blair replied.

I was embarrassed that at 30 years old I wasn't sleeping with anyone. "It's just that… I've kind of been saving myself for Ryan. Just because I'm a dancer doesn't mean I should give it … Read More
