"It never occurred to me that at the ripe old age of 26 that I would need a 'filler,' but apparently I did," blogs Mary Rambin, the handbag-designing beta chimp to the blogging-retired Star talking head Julia Allison's alpha. You might remember Mary as the older sister of Leven, the jailbait soap actress who a.) stole Julia's last boyfriend, and b.) is currently dating Mens' Vogue's Hud Morgan, who recently got slapped by the NYO's Spencer Morgan at the Beatrice. Now Mary is seeing Julia's dermatologist, who has convinced her to plump up her lips (or possibly her nonexistent wrinkles, we're not sure yet) with injections at the tender age of 26! (Video coming soon; we're waiting with bated breath.) Honey, that's not the thing that ladies are supposed to admit to! You're supposed to take a "nice vacation to Florida" for facelifts, or a "long lunch meeting" for chemical peels. Also? Rambin outed Allison as having hair extensions. (Guess that wasn't actually a secret; we knew there was something a little too shiny about that girl's weave!)

Now when I see the name Julia Allison I lose my sense of smell, taste, hearing and...
That pic of JA is still classic. She's way more excited than anyone else there.
Hold on. Mary is 26? I read she was Leven Rambin's mother and didn't bat an eye which would make her closer to at least 36 assuming she had her at 19.
The Post talked about Gawker re: Julia Allison today on page 70 or thereabouts. I emailed the tip in, but Gawker is too modest to post it...and I'm too lazy.
JA's flashing the gang sign for "Third-Tier Celebutantes."
in defense of ms. rambin, julia tumbled the whole event where she had her extensions put in, just like every other facet of her life.
try and keep up gawkers.
I dislike this new filler-girl. JA seems genuinely self-absorbed, annoying, and completely clueless. This one just seems like an idiot. And if she's 26 she needs a lot more than just Restylane.
I've honestly tried to give this vapid ass-hat a fair shake, but I can't. I've read her moronic blog and find her repulsive. This is the last person in the world that anyone should take fashion advice from.
With JA you know she's trying hard to be appear a good person on some level (futile but she tries), you don't get the same vibe from this thumble twat. She's just boring, annoying, label mongering, and now ridiculously shallow. One waste of a human being.
Hey Mary, if anything, based on your body type, you needs to firm up that stomach, and maybe get some ass and breast implants. Oh, and a lobotomy would work wonders for your intelligence.
@Tammany_Fall: Or, she's on the verge of developing a patented method for picking her teeth and hitching a ride at the same time, which should be cost-efficient for her in the future.
rambin is infinitely more loathsome, but painfully more boring than julia allison.
The most disgusting thing about this whole tawdry turn of events is that substance with the candle sticking out of it that MR is about to fellate.
@the-cubicle-dweller: This is the last person in the world that anyone should take fashion advice from.
Agreed. I read her blog like it's opposite day, and luckily it works with what I was already doing. Fishnets, yes; brown and black, NEVAH! Besides, since when did having opinions and being picky about stuff make you a style maven?
It looks like Dr. Bobby used up all the free samples on his own face.
Now where's that article about Nicole Kidman's bat-face? I'm going to photoshop JA's weave onto it and cackle maniacally.
Won't these chicks realize that the more fillers and procedures they have, the older they end up looking? Speaking of fillers and procedures... anyone catch Lara Flynn Boyle - or the unrecognizable woman currently using her SAG card - on Law & Order last night? Yikes.
@BK_KT:

@Wendy_Kroy: What the hell are they doing that makes them look so old at a fairly young age? I've got about a decade on them and am nowhere that haggard nor in need of injecting strange stuff into my face.
@Sebaceous: She's Leven's sister, not mother. Or at least that's what they told the neighbors and the folks at church. And Leven.
Now can we all play Marry, F*ck, Kill with the three pics. above?
All I know is I'd eff that monkey before I would JA.
Try to be gracious, Kelly!
@lawyergay: You know the feeling? When someone say something, and you say, "Right on." or some such. Then you realize you've thought it all along but not really but maybe?
That's my feeling about your comment. Bravo.
Sorry, but that pic of the virgin Mary in the middle actually looks likes she's making the ooh-ooh-ooh chimp noises. Can we get a pic of her scratching her armpits for reference, please? The little monkey pic to her right is priceless. I have nothing to say about the one on the left.
What the fuck does Mary DO for a living? What does she do all day? Since JA went off on her "break," Mary seems to be blogging at all hours of the day and night. Surely she can't support herself on those hideous fabric-y handcuffy goddamned purses, can she? No one in their right minds can possibly buy those things, can they?
And has she expanded the line a bit? Are there other handbags? Or only those bizarre wrist restraints?
So many questions, so few answers.
I want one of you Manhattanites to go to one of her spin classes. Pretty please.
Julia Allison = 12-year-old/fairytale princess/3 cubic zirconia ho (as per her self-branded persona)
Mary Ramblin = Size Zero
That is all.
(Except to say that I have now officially clicked for the last time on a JA, MR, Jakob whoever, etc. etc. post ... not sure what the point/aim is Mr. D; just seems like lose-lose for all involved; so, why?)
That's enough. If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all.
@Tippi from Toronto: This goes back to what you were saying regarding gainful employment. This spin studio she works at is on the upper west side. Most of us are in midtown or downtown working. She's catering to bored housewifes of wall streeters who are banging the barista at the Starbucks on Columbus and 79th.
Regarding her bags, did you ever see the Brady Bunch Movie? The character of Mike Brady was comissioned by various suitors to come up with designs for their particular needs. Every design centered around the Brady house. Guy wanted a gas station, looked like the Brady House. The guy wanted a restuarant, it looked like the Brady house.
My point? JUST BECAUSE YOU CHANGE THE FABRIC DOESN'T MAKE A SHITTY BAG MORE TOLERABLE. You can only put so much lipstick on a pig before people realize it's still a pig.
@Julia Allison: You should tell your passive-aggressive friend that. She's subtly gunning for your ass!
@Julia Allison: Maybe you should practice what you preach, you hypocritical harpie.
@Julia Allison: You're the one partying with Dr. Zaius.
@Julia Allison: Don't you have some weave comb and otherwise occupy yourself.
Oddly enough you don't follow your own advice. How's that macbook air?
@Tippi from Toronto: none of these bitches have anything vaguely resembling a real job yet they all work so so so so hard when they're not shopping or picking at overpriced meals or taking photos of themselves.
From The Discovery Channel programme "When Idiots Attack"
"... currently scientists are worried that certain parasitic entities based on the western seaboard of the United States are being mimicked on the East. The species Parisiticas Hiltonas, once only found in warmer climes, seems to have split and formed a sub-species in large urban areas. This new parasite - Parasitas Rambinis - has recently been discovered in New York. It is of the same genus as the Hiltonas species - primarily defined by it's low weight-to-brain ratio, it's spindly arms and legs, and abhorrent fascination with it's own image in any shape or form. This relatively new creature leaves a trail of stupidity in the form of blog-posting about subjects only relating to itself. Having latched onto an equally vapid host - usually the common-or-garden species of Allisonus - it leeches off the host's latent networking skills to promote itself at all costs. This can take the form of any lowest common denominator activity, from simple outbursts of "look at me in a shitty dress" to more involved diatribes such as "i design handbags that people rilly want, rilly, they do" when obviously no-one is interested in them. Parasitas Rambinis stands out in urban areas due to it's inherent lack of taste, style, or common decency. When it becomes bored, it enjoys standing on glass tables and jumping up and down, screeching in an unknown and unintelligent dialect about nothing in particular. Unlike it's cousin, the American Cockroach (Periplaneta americana), Parasitas Rambinis actually seeks out the light and company of humans, where it feeds off short-term kindness and vacuous conversation about the most idiotic of topics - they are almost never found near the fridge, though. Apparently sensitive about it's own horrid appearance, Parasitas Rambinis often resorts to desperate measures to protect its outer shell through injections into its lips, just below the lower mandibles. It can appear to most as of an indeterminate age - hearing it speak usually gives the wrong estimation of being under 5 years old, when in fact, it is actually closer to 30. Sadly, Parasitas Rambinis has a long life span unless you can catch one in a jar and throw it out the window.
@Julia Allison: Oh God. Please don't become Grandma. It will fuck up all my fantasies about you.
@Julia Allison:
Did you quit gossiping on television when you quit blogging?
@Julia Allison: UM.
Says a former friend: "Emily wants everyone-or at least a small sliver of New York's male media world-to think she's smart. And they want to fuck her. Both sides, thus far and pretty much, have gotten what they want."
So maybe peddle that bullshit elsewhere?
Hey, at least she puts original content on her blog. What would we see from you if you suddenly had that much traffic?
@gawksFromaRock: "Content" is a misnomer. Unless you mean "The idiotic blatherings of a sociopathic narcissist who systematically tries to gather fame in order to libel those around her, including her ex-boyfriend and ex-best-friends," in which case: yes, "content!"
'content' is in the eye of the beholder..
@Julia Allison: Commie!
How on earth can you admit to reading it, then..?
@gawksFromaRock: You've never looked at a car wreck?
@Julia Allison: At least you knew how to spell "bipolar."
I heart JA, actually, Big fan. She is real and while that may come across as shallow, not everyone in this world is deep and insightful. That said, Mary is a cheap substitute -- posesses none of that JA quality we all so obviously crave. Nothing is appealing about her and this will be my last post about MR because I will stop reading anything about her. That is the loveliness of freedom.
@Julia Allison: Sweetie, you needs yourself a break from ALL forms of blog. Incl. this one, right here.
PS: Kind of starting to heart Mary more than you. Save me!
@cassandra: I didn't say that. Not really sure what makes you think I did. ??
@Julia Allison: Look back at the comments on the Emily Gould-Keith Gessen post. Also, something similar was written about you, with that same syntax, by one of the Gawker writers and the parallel wording just seemed too much of a coincidence.
Also, if you're hoping that one comment will clear your name, you might also want to think back on the pretty evil things you said about Jakob Lodwick after the breakup. The point is, you're in no position to moralize.
@Julia Allison: Also, not incidentally, can you please stop trying to control what people say about you? You're so proud of "putting it out there" and how "brave" that is, but you don't really get to edit and subtract our impressions of your actions.
It's like half your efforts to build an image also consist of trying to cram the exact interpretation we should have of you down our throats. If you want to be "famous" that's fine -- work it, girl, wear the condoms, date whomever, whatever. Put it out there! Be Brave! But you don't get to be the performer and the audience. You don't really get to erase what all of our experience and education tells us about your act, which is that you're essentially a fraud with a very convenient sense of victimhood.
@cassandra: well done, and thank you.
