Over the weekend, Katy Perry debuted another shade of blue hair in Las Vegas. The newer, bluer hair was more turquoise than the look she had sported weeks before on the set of an Adidas commercial.

Katy is constantly changing her hair color from black to blond to pink, and seemingly every shade in between. These days, however, it seems she's settled on blue. So, when MTV News spoke to her longtime hair colorist, Rita Hazan, she gave us the low-down on why Ms. Perry is feeling so blue these days.

"Of course, being Katy, she is a lot more edgy and she's cooler and she likes to take a lot of risks. And I love that she's like, 'I'm feeling a little blue, let's go blue' — not in her energy, just in her hair color," Hazan explained to MTV News about the pop star's current hair-color choice. "I felt like it's the perfect color for her because her eyes are blue and she has the perfect skin tone to be a really vibrant, really cool, intense blue."

When Hazan first heard about Perry's decision to deepen her locks to blue, she wanted her to be a "cobalt blue, muted cobalt blue; it's really cool. It took me three days to come up with this color. I'm so obsessed with it. It's like the wallpaper for my iPhone."

Since then, the color has lightened up a bit, but regardless of the shade, the hair still has everyone buzzing. "I was shocked by all the crazy reactions that people had to the blue 'cause I thought going from black to pink would have been the major reaction people would have," she said. "But I kind of like that people are loving the blue 'cause I'm obsessed with blue. So any shade of blue, I'm loving. I know it's not natural, but it sort of works in a natural way."

Of course, her hair color might have something to do with her recent split from Russell Brand. Kimberley Pierce, a colorist at Ion Studio in New York City, explained that she's seen many a newly single chick come in and change up their mood with some new hair color. "They'll come in for a consult and say, 'My boyfriend and I just broke up and I want brown hair' and they're a blonde," she said, adding that she usually has some advice for those rash decisions. "The best thing we can do for them is tell them to try a wig on first."

Whatever Katy's reason for the shocking, eye-catching color change, Pierce added that it really works for her.

"I kind of like that she got away from the pink because I feel like we've seen that so much. With the blue, it's more vibrant and definitely she's on her own with it," she said. "She's kind of all the way in with the blue. She's kind of this candy-coated sort of person. So I guess blue would be the natural transition, or purple. It's nice to see her experiment with different things."

Destiny's Child Crew on Beyonce's Baby Girl (omg!)

Destiny's Child members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams dished on Beyonce's new transition into motherhood over the weekend, breaking their silence on the birth of baby Blue Ivy Carter.

Kelly remained uncharacteristically tight-lipped when asked if Blue's features favored one of her famous parents.

"That will be something that everybody will have to experience the same way I did," Kelly told USA Today. "That's for her parents to disclose, not myself."

Looks like somebody's learning from past mistakes!

Judging from Michelle's comment, I think it's a safe bet to say that Blue takes after her mother: "She is absolutely gorgeous," said the singer. No offense to the father.

In an interview with People, Michelle revealed that at one point Beyonce was thought to be the least likely Destiny's Child member to become a mom.

"We were very shocked. We were laughing with each other the other day and she was like, 'Can y'all believe it? I was the anti - like no children for me,' and she's the first one [of us to have a baby]," Michelle said. "So it was so amazing to see her."

The nation's weather (AP)

Weather Underground Forecast for Saturday, Jan. 14, 2012.

Wintry weather persisted over the Great Lakes and Northeast on Saturday as a strong winter storm slowly pulled northeastward and away from the region. Flow around this system was expected to continue pulling moisture onshore from the Atlantic Ocean, while cold air continued pouring into the Great Lakes. Snow showers were expected to do diminish across the Northeast early in the day, though lake effect snow showers were expected to persist along the downwind shores of the Great Lakes. Parts of western New York, northwestern Pennsylvania, and northern Ohio could see another 3 to 6 inches of new snow. Elsewhere, expect only 1 to 2 inches of light snow to develop across the higher elevations of the Northern Appalachians.

Behind the system, high pressure was expected to quickly build in from the Central Plains and Mississippi River Valley. This rapid change from low to high pressure was expected to cause some windy conditions across the Great Lakes, Midwest, and Ohio River Valley. Wind gusts were expected from 20 to 30 mph, which would be even stronger at higher elevations of the Northern and Central Appalachians.

In the north, a weak trough of low pressure moving through Canada was expected to continue pushing a front through the northern U.S. This system had little moisture associated with it, but it was expected to bring a few scattered snow showers to the Northern Plains and Upper Midwest.

Out west, a strong and cold winter storm will drop in from the Gulf of Alaska. This system was expected to move over British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest, triggering heavy rain and snow showers. Most areas of the Cascades were expected to see 3 to 8 inches of new snow on Saturday. Cold temperatures were expected to accompany this system, with highs ranging 10 to 15 degrees below seasonable. Temperatures in the Lower 48 states Friday ranged from a morning low of -14 degrees at Hallock, Minn. to a high of 80 degrees at Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
