<h3>Lady Gaga Logo #2 Font</h3>
<p><img src="http://dirt2.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/gagalogo.jpg" alt="Lady Gaga Font" /><br />
I&#8217;m fairly certain this font doesn&#8217;t exist, Correct me if I&#8217;m wrong. I&#8217;ve looked all over the web and other people have asked about it and everyone suggests similar fonts but nobody knows if it exists. My theory is it&#8217;s a custom/edited font made from two weights of Avant Garde, they align perfectly and the letters all match. The &#8220;A&#8221; is slightly skewed and the Y is a lowercase y with some added lines and things to give it that Jazzy 1930s vibe.<br />

<img src="http://dirt2.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/ladygaga.jpg" alt="Lady Gaga Paparazzi Fonts" /><br />
I found that there are two images for Lady Gaga&#8217;s single &#8220;Paparazzi&#8221;, one is more geared towards <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOrKLUlh-To">the video</a> while the <a href="http://dirt2.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Lady_GaGa.jpg" target="_blank">original</a> is more for the song itself (camera lens), the font for this is edited too much in Photoshop to get an exact match.<br />

<p>This is a collection of fonts used in Merchandise, Clothing and Ads for Ed Hardy and Christian Audigier.<span id="more-502"></span><br />
The first thing you need to realize is, is that for all of the original <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Ed_Hardy">Ed Hardy</a> designs and tattoos he used his own handwriting and calligraphy. The designs were originally for a tattoo design book called &#8220;Tattootime&#8221;. In 2002 he was approached by a company who wanted to turn the designs into fashion, <img src="http://dirt2.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/christiann.gif" alt="Christian Audigier Logo" align="right" style="margin:3px;"/><Br/><Br/>In 2004 Christian Audigier also approached the company and bought license permission to reproduce the designs in his high-end clothing clothing line (Christian Audigier was formerly known as the owner of Von Dutch). While many of the fonts still use handwritten text, modified fonts and other forms of &#8220;non-redistributable&#8221; text you can buy elaborate fonts from <a href="http://www.letterheadfonts.com/">LetterHeadFonts</a> and if you own a clothing company or need some custom text design work you should visit <a href="http://hydro74.com/H74/">Hydro 74</a> whose clients include Quicksilver, Maxim Magazine, Mattel and much more.. And no neither of these are referrals.</p>
<h3>Ed Hardy Logo &#8211; Is it a Font?</h3>
<p><center><img src="http://dirt2.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/edhardy.gif" alt="Ed Hardy Logo" /></center><br />
The original logo and signature of Ed Hardy is unfortunately not a font, it&#8217;s Don Ed Hardy&#8217;s signature that usually goes next to the tattoo design. It is not known whether there have been any attempts to recreate a similar font but thus far there are no results on any search engines that might suggest it. You can <a href="http://www.brandsoftheworld.com/categories/clothing/137289.html">download the original Ed Hardy logo here</a> (as a vector).</p>
<h3>Are there any existing Ed Hardy fonts?</h3>
<p>As far as I know the only person to date (July 2009) that has made any attempts to recreate and release the vintage tattoo calligraphy of Ed Hardy has been myself with my font &#8220;Dead Hardy&#8221;.<br />
<center><img src="http://dirt2.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/deadhardy1.jpg" alt="Ed Hardy Font - Dead Hardy" /></center><br />
While I love the feedback and the attention it has recieved as <strong>The</strong> Ed Hardy Font I want to remind you that it is not the actual font used in any products, just an inspired recreation which doesn&#8217;t use any of the actual letters.</p>

<h3>Ed Hardy &#8220;By Christian Audigier&#8221; Font</h3>
<p>As of early 2008 I noticed that the Ed Hardy designs and <a href="http://donedhardy.com/" target="_blank">DonEdHardy.com</a> began incorporating the name of the business man who licensed the designs. A little while later he came out with his own clothing line, a smart way to get his name known on an already increasingly popular clothing company. I found this font earlier this year, it&#8217;s called &#8220;<a href="http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/fonthead/black-beard/">Black Beard</a>&#8221; by <a href="http://www.fonthead.com/">Fonthead Design</a>. You can purchase it for less than $20.00 at <a href="http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/fonthead/black-beard/">MyFonts.com</a>.<br />

<p>Here is a collection of fonts used on Albums, Singles and Covers by pop artist <a href="http://www.katyperry.com/">Katy Perry</a>.<span id="more-458"></span> Most of these fonts are free but a selective couple are commercial fonts and have to be purchased in order to be downloaded. This is my first &#8220;famous fonts collection&#8221; so I hope it&#8217;s useful, questions or comments are welcome.</p>
<h3>Katy Perry&#8217;s Logo Font &#8211; Katy Berry</h3>
<p>The logo for Katy Perry is actually a custom logo made by an unknown graphic designer who most likely works for the record lable. I personally have recreated and put together a similar font and while it&#8217;s not perfect it is the only known version of the font to exist, The font is free to use and available for commercial use in my shop. Note that updates are made somewhat frequently, Since I have first released it there has at least been one major update.</p>

<h3>Katy Perry&#8217;s &#8220;Waking Up In Vegas&#8221; Font &#8211; Alba</h3>
<p>If you were wondering what font was used in this single&#8217;s cover, it&#8217;s the ever so popular &#8220;Alba&#8221;. Gives it a vintage/neon/retro feel.</p>
<p><center><img src="http://dirt2.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/waking1.gif" alt="Waking Up In Vegas Font"  class="thickbox"/><br />

<h3>Katy Perry&#8217;s &#8220;I Kissed a Girl&#8221; Font &#8211; Gill Sans Ultra Bold</h3>
<p>This bold font was seen on the singer&#8217;s single cover for &#8220;I Kissed a Girl&#8221; with the retro colors and polka dot pattern. Also I have to add whoever did this for the cover must of been a beginner at illustrator, even worse than myself because they left lines instead of having a seamless pattern inside of the text (you can see there&#8217;s multiple dark lines where the pattern repeats).</p>
