Katy Perry's Cupcake Passes $1,600 At Auction

Bids for Katy Perry's cupcake trampoline have sailed past $1,600 (£1,000) as part of a memorabilia auction raising funds for the Japanese relief effort.
With just two days left of the sale, the odd item, which was a prop on the first half of Perry's California Dreams tour, has attracted 37 bids.
In the same Emi online auction, Coldplay star Chris Martin's Viva La Vida tour jacket and the band's gold disc of the album went under the hammer for $13,760 (£8,600) on Friday (15Apr11).
All proceeds from the sales will benefit the Red Cross' earthquake and tsunami relief effort.
