Most little girls love pink, but one woman has taken it to the extreme.

For full story and pictures:

Kitten Kay Sera sleeps and breathes pink, even dying her dog to match her home and wardrobe.

She wakes up everyday in her pink bedroom, has breakfast in her pink kitchen, and dresses in one of her many pink outfits.

Kitten, 46, has even dumped boyfriends who don’t share her love of the rosy hue.

The actress from Los Angeles, USA, had a normal upbringing and only came to pink later in life.

She said: “My love for pink didn’t start until I was 21.

“Growing up I didn’t wear pink much at all – in fact, looking back at my childhood I might have been pink deprived and I didn’t know it!”

She went on: “It was a gradual pink progression. I didn’t just wake up one day and say: ‘Gee I am only going to wear the colour pink for the rest of my life.’

“I just found that the pink items that I did have were being worn a lot more than my other coloured clothes and I started giving everything that wasn’t pink to my four older sisters.”

Kitten says she isn’t strange. She just has a natural affinity for the shade, which makes her feel ‘lovely and luxurious’ and happy.

“The colour pink makes me feel like I’m living a lavish life.

“It’s just a beautiful colour, so I surround myself with any and everything pink. I’m just drawn to it like a magnet,” she said.

“Some people have asked: “Don’t you get bored dressing only in pink?

“But I can do every look in the book, punk, country and western, glamour, hippy, rock ‘n roll.

“I go through different pink phases~ right now I  am sort of in 1950’s Doris Day stage.”

A permanent pink fixture in her life is her four-year-old Maltese dog called Kisses, who she has dyed safely with Beetroot juice every five weeks.

She said: “She gets so much attention.

“Wherever we are people want a picture or a ‘Paw-tograph.

“She’s pampered at the dog groomers. They use Beetroot juice in the bath to dye her pink. It is totally safe and vet approved, I would never do anything to harm my little love.”

They’re often stopped on the street by well-wishers who give Kitten the pink clothes off their own back.

“Some of my fans send me pink gifts through the post and it’s so charming and sweet,” she said.

“I’ve had strangers literally give me the pink earrings off their ears, or the pink

scarves from their necks.

“It means a lot to them, but it means even more to me.”

Kitten takes her obsession so seriously that she even goes to funerals dressed in head to toe pink.

Her family and friends have had to learn to adapt.

She said: “I went out with this guy once and was  waiting for his reaction to all

the pink madness. But there wasn’t any.

“Then he told me: ‘I’m colourblind – it all looks the same to me.’

“Needless to say, that was our last date. I have got to be with someone that can at least appreciate all that is pink!”

Kitten says she is a ‘pink personality’ who invited to all kinds of Hollywood premieres, parties and award shows based on her love of the colour.

Kitten and kisses also have their fair share of celebrity fans, including Beyonce Knowles, who is also singing backing for Kitten’s new single “Sex Kitten”.

Surprise, surprise, the CD cover is…pink.
