Sanrio, the Japanese company behind Hello Kitty, has revealed that, despite looking like a cat, the global icon of cute is actually a female person called Kitty White.
But the news did not go down well with one furious fan known only as Liu.
It appears the youngster had her hopes and dreams dashed when she was told the news.

The youngster chose to vent her frustrations in a hilarious YouTube video uploaded by her mother.
Clearly distressed and with tears in her eyes, she said, “I hate it — She looks like a cat. She cannot be a human. She is a cat that acts like a human, like in cartoons.”
The clip was posted on YouTube by user Wizardofrum, who wrote, “My daughter didn’t appreciate the truth about Hello Kitty. I didn’t know she wasn’t a cat either. Poor girl.”
However, at the very end of the video the girl realizes she may have gone too far in her criticism and warns her mum not to post the clip on Facebook.
Unfortunately for her, her mother chose to post it on YouTube instead.

創造凱蒂貓的日本公司三麗鷗揭露，儘管凱蒂貓看來像貓，但這個全球可愛偶像其實是位女性，名叫凱蒂‧懷特。
但是一名姓劉的憤怒凱蒂貓迷不太能接受這個消息。
顯然這名小女孩得知此事時，她的希望和夢幻破滅了。
在一段由她媽媽上傳至YouTube的詼諧影片中，這名小女孩決定宣洩她的失望情緒。
她顯然很傷心，眼中含著淚水說：「我討厭這個消息。她看起來就是貓，她不會是人，她是像在卡通片裡那樣，是舉動像人的貓。」
這段影片被名為Wizardofrum的網友上傳到YouTube，並寫道：「我女兒不喜歡關於凱蒂貓的真相。我之前也不知道她不是貓，可憐的孩子。」
然而，在這段影片的最後，這名女孩知道也許她批評得太過火了，警告她媽媽不要將這段影片放上臉書。
對她來說很遺憾的是，她媽媽選擇上傳到YouTube。

Handing down a name over generations is a central part of the Japanese traditional theater art of Kabuki, and that ceremony gets celebrated at theaters and special events every few years. Now, the ritual is taking place with the eighth Kikugoro, who is having that honor passed down from his 83-year-old father, the seventh Kikugoro, who in turn got that name from his father. “Taking on the name is about taking on the spirit and responsibility that’s created and getting passed down over generations by those who came before us,” the younger Kikugoro, Kazuyasu Terajima, told reporters recently.
