Hello Kitty不是貓

日本三麗鷗公司透漏,“Hello Kitty這個(gè)從點(diǎn)綴午餐盒和烤面包機(jī)到T恤和內(nèi)衣的形象,一向被以為是只可愛(ài)的貓，但事實(shí)上卻不是如此，聽(tīng)清楚了Hello Kitty并不是一只貓”。
那么究竟凱蒂是什么?
“粉紅全球化:Hello Kitty徒步穿越太平洋的作者克里斯汀·r·矢野對(duì)《洛杉磯時(shí)報(bào)》說(shuō)所謂的凱蒂貓其實(shí)是一個(gè)人類的女孩(英國(guó))。
“凱蒂貓不是貓，她是一個(gè)卡通人物，一個(gè)小女孩，一個(gè)我們的朋友，但她不是一只貓。她并沒(méi)有被刻畫(huà)成一個(gè)用四條腿走路的形象，而是像我們?nèi)祟愐粯?rdquo;矢野解釋說(shuō)。
稍微動(dòng)下腦筋你就會(huì)知道,Hello Kitty其實(shí)是凱蒂·懷特——一位天蝎座喜歡蘋(píng)果派的女孩,喬治和瑪麗·懷特的女兒。 Sanrio has revealed Hello Kitty -- the supposedly adorable feline character that adorns everything from lunch boxes and toasters to t-shirts and lingerie -- is, in fact, not a cat. We repeat NOT A CAT.

Just what is Hello Kitty, you're asking?

Hello Kitty is a human girl (and a British one at that), Christine R. Yano, the author of "Pink Globalization: Hello Kitty's Trek Across the Pacific," told The Los Angeles Times.

"Hello Kitty is not a cat. She's a cartoon character. She is a little girl. She is a friend. But she is not a cat. She's never depicted on all fours. She walks and sits like a two-legged creature," Yano explained to the Times.

And if you are ready for your mind to be just a little more blown, the character we all know as Hello Kitty is actually Kitty White -- a Scorpio who loves apple pie, and is the daughter of George and Mary White.

"She has a twin sister. She's a perpetual third-grader. She lives outside of London. I could go on. A lot of people don't know the story and a lot don't care," Yano told the paper.
