Philip Roth: The New Perez Hilton?

071001_r16636_p233.jpgIn a recent interview in the European weekly Spiegel, legendary novelist Philip Roth sort of implies that he's into cybersex:

SPIEGEL: You have email and don't use it?
Roth: I use it with one person, one person only, because I don't... I don't want to be bothered.
SPIEGEL: May we ask who the one person is?
Roth: One person. I have to have some fun.
Well, if there was one technology the guy who ruined chicken liver was going to embrace, it would be cybersex. (Are obnoxious posts like this part of the reason Philip Roth doesn't like to give interviews?) [via Roth Brothers, who share no relation with Philip Roth. Roth is actually a very common Jewish name.]
