No boys allowed! Rihanna had singer Katy Perry over to her house in Barbados, where they went out on a boat and worked on their tans.

Another celebrity currently stimulating the travel economy this week but doing the opposite of a girlfriend getaway is Salma Hayek. She's rumored to be getting married (again, she tied the knot with French businessmen François-Henri Pinault in February) this weekend in Venice, Italy -- and by "rumored" we mean Antonio Banderas blurted it out in the press conferences. He's so not getting invited to the next wedding.

So what we want to know is, what makes a great girlfriend getaway? Or, in a larger, gender-neutral sense, what do you do with your friends when you travel? Do you have a first-night-out ritual? A secret induction ceremony? (Well, it won't be secret now!)

If 2009 is the year of the naycation, the great cities of Europe will be fighting even harder for tourist dollars. But their celebrity support is hardly in doubt: Stars like Lady Gaga, Super World Travelers Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie and Katy Perry used the Continent as a playground this weekend.

Gaga went out to a London club with her entourage, while Perry's had to hold her hand after she was mistakenly called for an award she didn't win in Cannes at the NRJ Awards.

The world's most famous couple went out on a romantic dinner -- with Pitt's mustache -- in Berlin, where they lived for a while this fall.

Eggstrordinary: How did Gwen Stefani and Katy Perry end up choosing the same, non-topical costume this Halloween? Stefani donned hers for a Halloween party in West Hollywood with husband Gavin Rossdale as a slice of bacon, while Perry paired hers with a halo (?) to go onstage at a show in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Even though they ended up with the same idea, we have to give the ladies credit for not picking a tired cliche. Here are five people you should NOT go as for Halloween:

Baldy Britney Spears: Sure, it was scary, but MTV is over it, and you should be too.

Michael Phelps: Hypothermia: Not funny.

The Joker: Displays an admirable commitment to face makeup, but if we have to hear people trying to do the raspy voice all night we're going to reverse course and go as the scary puppet from SAW.

Amy Winehouse: Neither scary, nor funny, just sad. (Sorry, Cindy Crawford.)

Sarah Palin: Much, much too scary.

Singer Katy Perry attacks a pastry the way she assaulted our ears last summer with her number-one hit at the Premios MTV Latinoamérica last Thursday night.

Perry didn't win any trophies at the seventh annual edition of these video music awards, but she did celebrate the end of her set by jumping into the giant cake. It was probably a rehearsal for the MTV Europe Music Awards in Liverpool, which she's hosting. Yes, even in Liverpool girls kiss girls and like it.

Big winners of the night were Medillin, Colombia singer Juanes (4 awards), German pop outfit Tokio Hotel (3 awards including best ringtone) and Rihanna, who was garlanded best female fashionista.

No tans please: Lily Allen, Dita Von Teese and Katy Perry represent the palest of the pale in the front row of the Christian Dior show at Paris Fashion Week.

A recent New York Times story quipped "the sun never sets on the runway" with the proliferation of Fashion Weeks worldwide. Paris is even safer than New York, considering many of the classic ateliers like Dior, Yves Saint Laurent and Chanel are still open there. But "Islands of the World Fashion Week" in the Bahamas sounds like a fashion editor's excuse to take a vacation.
