    Laura "JT Leroy" Albert Only Dresses Like A Truck Stop Whore

    "I was able to take problems of the soul and transform them into problems of art, to put on a disguise," Laura "JT Leroy" Albert whinged to unsympathetic Post scold Andrea Peyser. "I create like an oyster creates a pearl—out of irritation. Not to see itself on Paris Hilton's neck—and I'm not attacking her! Paris Hilton does not solve the problems of the spirit." But wait: Seriously, woman, what are you wearing? More »

    Andrea Peyser Singlehandedly Responsible For Tough Braunstein Sentence

    Our favorite Post harpie isn't one to toot her own horn. In fact, if there's anything she despises more than sluttery, it's narcissism: "For the first time in his miserable "Me! Me! Me!" existence, Peter Braunstein looked mad. And more than a little afraid." Later: " It's not about "Me." But in the midst of all this, Andrea manages to subtly work in a mention of another "me": herself.
    Well, we know he reads this newspaper. In a letter pleading for leniency from Judge Thomas Farber, Braunstein whined about how the criminal-justice system, the state mental-health laws and especially the media all conspired to convict him. He even quoted from my column, in which I said that he was not sick, but evil. "This kind of tabloid rhetoric is essentially a mandate for harsh sentencing," he wrote, as if it were a bad thing.
    Hypocritical? Maybe a little. But we'll forgive her because of her heroic avoidance of explicit prison rape jokes this time around. More »

    In a letter to the judge who will sentence him for his kidnapping and sexual assault conviction, former WWD media reporter and unsexyfakefireman Peter Braunstein asks for sympathy: "During the trial, the New York Post columnist Andrea Peyser declared that I was not sick; I was evil. This kind of tabloid rhetoric is essentially a mandate for harsh sentencing." Braunstein also suggested that Peyser's branding Paris Hilton an "ignorant slut" was "a little harsh." [NYP]

    Hard Time With Naomi Campbell: The Diary

    Claw-baring catwalker Naomi Campbell says she picked up more than trash while working off a community-service sentence at a city Sanitation Department facility - she also landed a much-needed lesson in humility. In a soul-baring, day-to-day diary that she penned during her week cleaning Sanit offices at Pier 36 in Manhattan, the manic mannequin provides more-than-skin-deep insight into her much-publicized, usually explosive psyche.
    We don't know about you, but we cannot wait for Friday's W to read Naomi's deep thoughts. So we've obtained an advanced copy of the chronicles of her struggle. They are everything we expected and more. More »

    The Two Faces Of Andrea Peyser

    Designated Post moralist Andrea Peyser can still work herself into a state of highly-frothed outrage when righteous anger is called for (or not called for!), but if today's paper is any indication, The Peys has a softer side.We never thought we'd say it, but we miss the scowl. More »

    Andrea Peyser Hits (Anna Nicole's) Bottom

    We'd worried that Post finger-wagger Andrew Peyser had lost her touch since finding love. Her last few columns felt decidedly phoned-in—c'mon, "Send Naomi To Jail"? But today, the Peys is back in the saddle, challenging preconceptions and writing more vividly than anyone would like.
    It's as plain as the fierce infection raging through Anna Nicole Smith's voluptuous backside on the day she died. Her death was no pure "accident." Only in Florida can a healthy, young woman drop dead in a hotel room with a nasty bug raging through her bottom from a dirty hypodermic syringe ...

    Andrea Peyser Loves Fresh Meat

    Columnist of the Century Andrea Peyser cannot get enough of beefy virgin Herb Shaw. She follows up on last week's story about the prospective "I Want To Fuck a Porn Star" contestant with the happy news that, so far, seven women who saw his story in the Post have contacted him in the hopes of finding the last man in New York without a wife, a boyfriend, and herpes. Peyser, whose appearance at the audition caused producers to worry that they lacked enough of the unlaid, tries to sound hopeful for Herb, but it seems clear that she wants him to save himself for the porn star, or, at least, someone more deserving. Someone with, say, a column at the Post? Either way, look at the photo of Herb and his father. Let's just say that if that guy—and is he also Bam Margera's dad?— got some, Herb shouldn't have too many problems. More »

    Andrea Peyser's Pay-Per-View Fantasies

    Andrea Peyser dials down her Moral Outrage Meter to mere Sklar-like chiding this morning, clucking her tongue at "Virgin Territory," a proposed reality show (maybe it'll air on the new Court TV!) in which a bunch of virgins sit around watching porn and the guy who can refrain from rubbing his rod to sploogation the longest gets to nail a porn star. The column focuses on Herb, a 23-year-old cheesecake distributor (what?) and contestant for whom Peyser has an odd, but obvious attraction. In a poignant moment, Herb notes that while shooting his virginity into a Vivid vixen would be grand, "any old girl would do." (You can almost feel The Peys considering it!) But we veer into pure creepiness at the column's close: "Maybe we should look for the show on pay-per-view. I'd pay to see Herb get what's coming to him." Okay, we finally know what kind of porn Peyser goes for: clean and quick. Not much of a surprise, actually. More »

    Andrea Peyser Gets A Little More Mileage Out Of Britney's Pooter

    Taking 'Drea to task for employing hyperbole is, of course, like spanking a fish for swimming. That being said, though, we were a little taken aback when we came to this line in today's column (a celebration of Kevin Federline's parental skills):
    The competition for worthy parent is admittedly sparse. However, the winner of this prize is easy to spot. Hint: It's not the one who's been photographed, repeatedly, falling out of cars onto her bare and bruised pudenda.
