Like the Hindenburg, bedazzled blogger Perez Hilton seems to have hit a snag. In his starfucking get-rich-quick scheme, he makes no bones about lifting photos from other sites, photos that might often be shot by paparazzi who intend to sell the shots.
As Hilton (née Mario Lavandeira) told Radar for a recent profile, he doesn't hide from the fact that he lifts his pics, often without asking permission. "They know that having their picture on my site won't cannibalize their sales; it'll actually help," Lavandeira said. "They're sending me pictures now, because they realize that all the people at the TV shows and celebrity weeklies read my site first."
Eh ... maybe not so much.
