SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) — I could pick out Hello Kitty in a police lineup. That’s pretty much the extent of my knowledge when it comes to the popular character and the universe that she inhabits. However, when I worked on the KUTV assignment desk on weekends, I made sure to send a photographer whenever the Hello Kitty Café Truck came into town. Why? I love fandom. Not the toxic, gatekeeping negativity that often overshadows everything; No, I’m talking about the inexplicable joy that consumes a person when they simply love something.
I’m told that Hello Kitty is celebrating its 50th anniversary and that’s more than enough reason to throw a party or, at the very least, assemble the most colorful guide that I’ve ever done.
Go on, take a look. You know you need to.
