< BACK TO Fresh Intelligence Bloggers Should Be Read and Not Seen![]() BLOG OF MYSELF Pink is the New Blog puts himself on Time Isn't it a tad hypocritical for embittered nerds who feast on celebrity narcissism and self-regard to make like Norma Desmond whenever a camera's around? Take this snap of Lavandeira with rubberfaced JAPtress Tori Spelling stroking the "gossip gangsta" like a pet gorilla. Or this hardass shot of an unshaven Matt Drudge in the Middle East, reminding the world that "This is the most exciting moment in the history of News..." Or this fake ad featuring Mediabistro's Dylan Stableford, which he used to illustrate a post on American Apparel. Then, of course, there's Gawker, that steely bastion of self-awareness. Earlier this afternoon, Gawker launched its own Pinup Gallery intended to showcase its blogworld hangers-on. Those examples, by the way, are all from today. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() What?? Bloggers who are self promotional and out simply to gain notoriety?? Stop the Presses!! All of it--blogging, youtube, etc. etc. is happening, more than anything, because everybody wants to be famous....Which means fame becames worth less, as more and more people can achieve it Oh well.
