Perez Hilton's Gaysha Makeover in Tokyo

The images above are of Perez Hilton's gaysha makeover during his trip to Tokyo. Traditionally, the word is spelled geisha, but all things considered, I like Perez Hilton's alternate spelling better this time.

Perez Hilton's gaysha makeover took place at Katsura in Tokyo, at the recommendation of Dita Von Teese. See more images of the finished product--as well as a couple of hastily-snapped TwitPic images during the makeover process--in the gallery above.

Implications - xx
Am I the only one who still can't believe that this is Perez Hilton in this Gaysha getup? The mere realization that it was the famous blogger under there makes this shoot extra hilarious and certainly makes me take a double take. Way to go Perez Hilton, this truly is blog-worthy!
