Katy Perry's blue streak continues.

Just days after popping up with a colorful new 'do, the chart-topper was seen at LAX on Monday sans her wedding ring.

In its place?

An antique-looking bauble with a, yep, blue stone.

Of course, the lack of a band doesn't come as a total shock considering Russell Brand did file for divorce last month. And who can blame the girl for just wanting to move on, right?

In fact, Perry is not only moving on from the marriage world, but entering a whole new one as well...

Electronic Arts Inc.

That's right. Thanks to a collaboration between the singer and Electronic Arts, Perry will soon find herself part of the popular game franchise, The Sims, when a special Collector's Edition of The Sims 3 Showtime launches in March.

"I love how you're able to play out different stories through your Sims characters—giving them different careers and watching them succeed," said Perry in a press release. "It's cool to see the Sims' stage performances in The Sims 3 Showtime decked out just like my California Dreams Tour—even my cotton candy video screens are in there! I always like to think of myself as a cartoon, and now I'm a Sim!"

Fans can preorder the game starting today at the Sims website.
