Katy Perry really knows how to pay tribute to the troops.

The sexy star wowed an audience of service members at the USO's "VH1 Divas: Salute the Troops" event on Sunday, wearing a revealing American-flag patterned bustier top and a skin-tight camouflage dress.

God bless America.

Meanwhile, the troops at the Marine Corps Air Station in California were clearly feeling patriotic about the Palins. They booed comedienne Kathy Griffin for a below-the-belt joke in which she referred to Bristol Palin as "only contestant in the history of ['Dancing With the Stars'] to actually gain weight" during the show. Griffin also called Bristol "the white 'Precious.'"

But the event wasn't about hating on the Palins -- it was about honoring those who defend America. From Perry to Jessica Simpson, click through our slideshow and let us know: Which star REALLY loves the USA?

    What I find sad...men and women who have gotten their legs blown off...children that are now fatherless and motherless...it's easy to be super patriotic singing songs about our soldiers...by calling them heroes and doing concerts...real patriotism is putting down the football and big money to join our fighters on the battlefield...Pat Tillman...being on the sidelines is just flag waving...rock stars will be long remembered and rated for their patriotism...soldiers who have lost limbs or died will be fogotten over time...it's great to sing the songs of patriotism and saying how proud you are of our young soldiers...try joining them on the battlefield...I doubt any of you will....

    I've seen Toby Keith in concert- he's very patriotic, and you can tell he means it. Katy Perry is a horrible singer & is in it for the publicity; Jessica Simpson is plain dumb and just out for more attention.

    To Chinese, that's a pretty funny question since when we say a girl is "Patriotic" it means not very attrative.

    None of the above; Pop and rock performers take it to a complaining level a'la Born in the USA by Bruce Springsteen, and Toby Keith made us look all like angry, gun-toting hicks in "Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue. Sure, they have the right to say what they want to say, but none speak for me.

    Ko your replies show how immature and also ignorant you are. He did not use Thinking and F**king in the same sentence. He never said the word think. I guess you have trouble reading? Or reasoning? Please explain how you mean that to Chinese people, Patiotic means Unattractive. I am not Chinese nor do I speak Mandarin, but I am pretty sure you don't know what you are talking about. I could be wrong, but I am probably not about this. And FYI Ted Nugent supports the 2nd ammendment and the troops etc, here is a link-

    http://www.usa-patriotism.com...

    . Not trying to be mean but just pointing out your ignorance and immaturity. Would be one thing if you were not trying to be a douche about it but you are so I felt I needed to message you. Yes I said "Felt" and "you" in the same message.

    Do you always discourse in speculative detial on people you have never met?

    Since your own user profile seems to be Anonymous Coward I'll sonsider your remarks in that perspective.
  • DanielR... Ko February 03, 2011 12:38:47

    I am not a coward I just do not like having people able to find my address. I have found out info on people without having to pay a site to get it. I do research and it usually takes less than an hour, using social networking sites and other available info. And I am not sure what you mean by speculative detail. I know what the words mean individually, but i don't know how what you are asking. I think you ask if I always talk to people I have never met about speculations. Yes people do it all the time. Do you always insult people with info on stuff you don't know anything about?
