]]> <![CDATA[The "Golden Age of Celebrity Gossip" Is Dead!]]> We all suffering from gossip fatigue. As the troubled starlets go from one staged drama to the next, no scandal has the ability to shock me anymore. And what good are naughty whispers when they fail to titillate our fancy? Let's blame Perez!

]]> <![CDATA[The "Golden Age of Celebrity Gossip" Is Dead!]]> @belltolls: Actually, I have a few movie mags from the late 1920s when my uncle was a young male ingenue, and they are about the same as Photoplay, etc. Mostly bullshit stories that the studios endorsed and stars talking about their latest picture, but you'd be surprised at some of the snark.
Plus I'm pretty sure they have ads for penis enlargement.

Facebook: I make a devotional shrine to myself
Twitter: I make friends aware of myself
OkCupid: I try to touch myself less
Gawker: I make a fool of myself

In short, I feel too damn self-important and self-involved to pay attention to other supposedly "famous" people. They do nothing more deviating than I do. Hah.

]]> <![CDATA[The "Golden Age of Celebrity Gossip" Is Dead!]]> Is anybody else a bit tired of Salon telling us about everything. They're correct, I guess, on this one, but, well, Their film critic bagged on "There Will Be Blood" and "No Country for Old Men." This means she's retarded. Salon pays her, so, by extension, they are retarded as well. There are countless other examples on Salon of their obnoxious for the sake of it contrarianism. Salon: my yawn just had a baby and a tumor was discovered on the baby and after a biopsy the tumor was discovered to be full of yawns.

]]> <![CDATA[The "Golden Age of Celebrity Gossip" Is Dead!]]> Hell, I read celebrity gossip like I read craigslist missed connections (several times a work day, a few times a weekend, for the rest of my life if I had my way). I can't tell which is a worse habit: caring about the imminent demise of Miley Cyrus or checking to see if anyone noticed my ass on the train.

]]> <![CDATA[The "Golden Age of Celebrity Gossip" Is Dead!]]> Funny that Traister longs for the 1950s Photoplay stories. How many did she read? The template for celebrity stories was set in the 1940s Photoplay and Modern Screen magazines: judgement and envy in equal parts. Hmm...just like today.

]]> <![CDATA[The "Golden Age of Celebrity Gossip" Is Dead!]]> Frankly, mags like Star and Us and OK! made themselves redundant by climbing into bed with celebrities and printing the PR-friendly crap they used to (pretend to) refute. Now when I open one of the glossies I'm expected to see photos of Rock Hudson and his lovely wife Phyllis enjoying a typical, romantic night at home
