Yonah Schimmel knishes are handmade, baked (never fried), and filled with a wide

Did you know?

August 2010 -- Do you know who this lovely naked lady is? Why of course you do! She has the number one pop music hit of the summer with, "California Girls" (featuring Snoop Dogg). Well if Ms Katy Perry doesn't melt your popsicle yet, wait until you see the album cover for her new album!

Her new album is titled, "Teenage Dream". The album cover artist is Mr Will Cotton, a lower east side artist whose work Ms Perry greatly admires. They became a most effective creative force with Mr Cotton serving as artistic director for the wildly successful video for California Girls. File: Naked Katy Perry album cover
