7 23 09 | If Celebrities were Pinkberry Flavors

Hollywood celebrities have a craving for frozen yogurt. That's right - they are putting the Red Bull aside (but not too far aside) for some fro-yo. Not just any fro-yo either. Celebrities are being Pinkberried.

If you do not know what Pinkberry Swirly Goodness is, then here's a little history. It is the brainchild of co-founders Shelly Hwang, a restaurateur, and Young Lee, a designer with an architectural background. Their love for frozen treats is what brought to life the premium frozen yogurt, and they opened their first store in West Hollywood in January 2005.

It is not uncommon to spot celebrities making a Pinkberry run, including model Alessandra Ambrosio, Neil Patrick Harris, Katy Perry, The Jonas Brothers, Ellen Pompeo and Rob Lowe, to name a few. Even the first daughters, Sasha and Malia Obama, love the "swirly goodness." With such yummy flavors as original, green tea, pomegranate, coconut and passion fruit, what's not to love?

Consider yourself extremely lucky if you live on the West or East Coast - California and New York, respectively - because these are the major locations where Pinkberry stores can be spotted (as well as Texas). The chain has yet to expand to other parts of the United States, but they are working on that. After all, with fro-yo this good it seems yogurt-y sinful that it's available in only three states in America.

Since Hollywood loves Pinkberry so much, let's have a bit of fun with the five flavors and with five celebrities. There are some celebrities who are so awesome, they are way Pinkberry and way "swirly goodness."

Beyonce represents the flavor of passion fruit perfectly. Pinkberry's passion fruit yogurt is tangy and tropical. We all know that Beyonce can certainly mix it up. After all, she is "Sasha Fierce." She is cool and collected off stage (tropical) and on stage she becomes a diva (tangy). The two mix quite well together.

Will Smith is the ultimate nice guy. He is the man who will sweep you off your feet because he's rich and smooth - just like Pinkberry's coconut flavor. He never disappoints and keeps you wanting more. Will is so seductive like coconut, he's intoxicating!

Bradley Cooper represents Pinkberry's original flavor - refreshing, creamy, and not too complex or overly tangy. We always like original flavors, but they can easily get lost during the ascension of other more popular flavors. But never fear, we always do find our way back to the "original," just like Bradley. Some of us almost forgot he was in the series "Alias," but with parts in "Wedding Crashers," "He's Just Not That Into You" and "The Hangover," the original is back.

Katy Perry may have "kissed a girl" and liked it, but we also know that she likes Pinkberry. The pomegranate flavor is way Katy Perry - it's pinkish in color, sweet and refreshingly fruity. This songstress is always herself, quirky and fun. She adds a punch of color to the mix with her one-of-a-kind outfits and personality. You just can't beat pomegranate!

To understand the man, you have to understand the tea. There are many varieties of tea, but green tea is one of kind, just like actor Robert Downey Jr. You either love green tea or you don't. You either love Downey or you don't. He is comparable to Pinkberry green tea flavor because of his complexity - tart, yet good for you and very healthy. Downey may have had ups and downs in his career, but let's face it, the man knows how to bring it when he acts. Come on! You know you enjoyed "Iron Man." Trust us, the green tea is good! The green tea is good!
