From the LVRJ: Hello Kitty beckons to passing tourists by waving her paws and blowing cat kisses into the air.
In her pink pajamas, pink mittens and brassiere made of seashells, she seems oddly out of place in front of Paris Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip. Until you watch her work and see how people respond.
Nearly everyone points. Parents hand their toddlers to her and snap photos. Others cajole their older, less trusting children to greet the anthropomorphized feline.
"Go on, hug her. It's Hello Kitty," the parents say.
But then:
Hello Kitty, played by Manuel from Los Angeles, has been working the Strip for the past three months. He declined to give his last name because his student visa expired years ago and he's afraid of being deported.
