Katy Perry really likes Lady Gaga (she's even covered "Born This Way"), so it's unsurprising that she picked up on Gaga's talon nails and has taken the look in her own direction. Katy posted this photo of her galactic digits while shooting her new video for "ET." She's even brought her fanbase in to help, asking her Facebook buddies to re-create her "ET" makeup and then post pictures of themselves. Will you be excited to see the rest of the looks from the shoot?

Nail artist extraordinaire Sophy Robson had a whirlwind September, jetting to Fashion Weeks across the globe. There, she created nails for Louis Vuitton, Loewe (whose butterfly nails are at right), Topshop, Stella McCartney, and Vivienne Westwood, among others.

Sophy chatted about Fall's hottest trends, so to see what the ultimate nail insider has to say about getting fashionable digits, just keep reading.
