Katy Perry celebrated her 25th birthday with a Willy Wonka-styled party on Saturday (24.10.09).

The 'Hot N Cold' singer held the bash at The Sunset Beach nightspot in Los Angeles and guests at the party - who had been told to wear white - were left covered head-to-toe in paint.

One said: "They got a little crazy with the paint. I wasn't expecting it but everyone got painted - even Taylor Swift!"

The birthday girl arrived at the party - which had Oompah Loompahs running around and a huge variety of candy and chocolate inspired by the sweet maker's workshop from Roald Dahl's classic tale, 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' - and guests say they couldn't keep their hands off each other.

Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton was among the guests and insists Katy's hospitality didn't disappoint.

He said: "Dinner included lots of yumminess, especially some deelish yellow and green mashed potatoes - and there were so many sweets downstairs for dessert that we're surprised we didn't go into a food coma."
