Sanrio is now officially my favorite company
as they celebrate their 40th Anniversary of their Hello Kitty
Franchise.
They’ve
pretty much stated the fact that Hello Kitty is a human girl that just happens
to have cat-like features, which is logical, given that she doesn’t walk on all
fours and actually owns a cat of her own, according to her Bio.
This
explanation was given by Christine Yano, curator of an upcoming exhibit on Hello
Kitty at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles during an interview
with the LA Times as explained in the article “Hello
Kitty is not a cat, plus more reveals before her L.A. tour”, published
August 26th 2014 by Carolina
A. Miranda, Los Angeles Times and
“Hello Kitty is not a
cat?”, published August 28, 2014 8:13 AM PDT by Bonnie Burton, CNET News.
Now
as part of their 40th Anniversary, Sanrio
with the help of Beats Electronics brand Beats
by Dr. Dre will debut their Hello Kitty x Beats headphones as reported in
the article “Beats
to debut paw-some Hello Kitty headphones”, published October 28, 2014 4:01
AM PDT by Bonnie Burton, CNET News and “Get
Ready For National Cat Day With Hello Kitty And Beats By Dre”, published
Tuesday, 28 October 2014 15:13 by Jennifer Lynn, MTV
UK.
The
Hello
Kitty x Beats headphones Collection, is really a set of two (2) of Beats by Dr. Dre's most popular headphone
with Hello Kitty Stylings:
1. US$249.95
USD Solo2 Blue emblazoned with the signature Hello Kitty design
2. US$149.95
UrBeats dolled up in Hello Kitty's colours that'll come in a nice Case shaped
like Hello Kitty's head
The
set, which is encased in a cute collector's pouch, was on display on Thursday
October 30th 2014 during Hello Kitty Con 2014 at the Geffen
Contemporary at MOCA in Downtown LA's Little Tokyo. They're set to go global by
late November 2014.
And
yes, they'd make purrrr-fect Christmas Gifts for the Audiophone in your life.
