Before half of Defamer's staff succumbs to heatstroke, we'd like to introduce guest blogger Kyle Buchanan, who will be joining us for the next two days. Kyle is a magazine writer for rags like Flaunt and The Advocate, though those with long memories may remember his late, lamented LA webzine Ostrich Ink, which…
We'd like to interrupt your regularly scheduled blog reading on this lovely Monday morning in order to make a quick introduction. We are excited to announce that, for the next two days, Sara Bibel (aka DroppedCall) will be jumping into the mix in a guest blogger capacity. For those of you who aren't already familiar…
This probably goes without saying, but the NRA's battle to protect our homes from British colonialists will never be the same without Charlton Heston. So, in honor of the late Mr. Heston, we here at Defamer decided it was high time to bring in the big guns (well, maybe not "big" like the .44 Magnum Clint Eastwood used…
Let's face it people; this country is going to proverbial hell in a not-so-proverbial handbasket. The Democratic party is imploding, gas prices are so high that Jay Leno can only afford to fill up 30 of his cars, and Lara Flynn Boyle is quickly morphing into Priscilla Presley. In troubled times like these, we here at…
We've got two quick announcements to lead the day. And no, neither of them have anything to do with April Fool's Day (we tend to defer to Ashton Kutcher when it comes to pranking, punk'ing and pap'ing). First things first, Seth is taking a much deserved and long overdue vacation and will be gone for the next two…
Good news to pass along on this Monday morning. We are pleased as punch to announce that Douglas Reinhardt has been added to the Defamer roster, where he will be serving in the role of contributor. Some of you may recognize Douglas' name from his blog, Skeet On Mischa, where he has been keeping tabs on pop culture…
We'd like to begin this lovely Thursday morning with a quick introduction. We are excited to announce that, for the next two days, S.T. VanAirsdale will be helping us round out our coverage in a guest blogger capacity. Not only is he an incredibly well-respected veteran of the film blogging world, he's an all-around…
When Lindsay Lohan shows her boobs and it's not by accident, when David Archuleta rockets to front runner status on American Idol merely by gazing into the camera and when Larry The Cable Guy is poised to set the box office afire with Witless Protection, that's a signal for us here at Defamer to call in some big guns…
Hi everyone! I'm Alex Pareene, the new guy. Or the old guy, sort of, as I've actually worked in the Gawker bile factory in some capacity for most of my adult life, like a little Dickensian orphan. I am from Minneapolis, I edited Wonkette from January of 2006 until last Friday, I thought The Darjeeling Limited was way…
TVWeek corralled just-installed NBC Entertainment co-chair Ben Silverman (pictured above enjoying himself in the general vicinity of soon-to-be sworn enemy Les Moonves of CBS) for a "getting to know you" chat, in which the recently anointed New Peacock Messiah reveals that while he has managed to chug the company's…
Please join us in welcoming the newest addition to the Gawker Media* family of blog-formatted web properties: Jezebel, a title just rolled out to service the needs of the vagina-having segment of the internet population, and dedicated to tarnishing the shiny objects that the Women's Magazine Industrial Complex…
