Katy Perry is right: This quiz show, "Who Knows Katy?", on Monday night's Jimmy Kimmel Live, is "the most narcissistic game ever." Kimmel pits Perry against an apparently real super-fan, Emily Draznik, in a trivia contest about Perry's life and music. Perry seems as genuinely (if gamely) uncomfortable as you'd expect confronted with a stranger who has a scrapbook and wall dedicated to her, but can she win? Or maybe a better question is: Can she lose? --Peter Weber
