Katy Perry essentially dressed in drag and did the hula as she danced on the stage of the Ellen DeGeneres show last week.

The talk show host celebrated her 55th birthday last Friday; Perry appeared on the show dressed suit reminiscent of Family Feud’s Richard Dawson, complete with a thick 70’s moustache, oversized bow tie and skinny microphone.

Perry lived out her dream of being a talk show host on The Ellen DeGeneres Show last Friday.

"I asked for the Anne Hathaway," Perry told Ellen, referring to the comb over wig she wore.

Ellen had told the audience that it was always a dream of Perry’s to be a talk show host.

The singer came prepared with her own game that she would host called “Grab Ellen’s Bust.”

Two excited fans were called from the audience in “The Price Is Right” fashion and played a trivia game based on Ellen for whom the winner would receive an all-expense paid trip to Australia.

Perry brought with her a crocheted bust in Ellen’s image. The premise of the game was the first person grab Ellen’s bust would be allowed to answer the trivia question. The first to three correct answers would win.

The overzealous contestant who ultimately won the game could hardly remain standing with excitement.

The runner up received a $1,000 Visa gift card.
