There used to be a HUGE site devoted to Blind Items I liked, but it has closed down. Now I tend to go to Defamer because it's accurate, snarky, and LA-based; Gawker because it's the less sophisticated, NY-based alternative to Defamer. L.A. Confidential is sometimes good, but not necessary because you see much of what they report without really trying to. A Socialite's Life is a good clearinghouse for info you find on other sites, IMO. And lots of gay-centric gossip appears on Filth2Go.

Oh it's my pleasure. I have to confess that my dissertation was originally going to be about gossip, so I like to think of those sites as scholarly interests, even though I would have written about gossip in early America. Then I decided I had to pretend to be more traditional in my scholarship, so I am making gossip the topic of my second book instead! That'll teach them to give me an advanced degree.

LOL! I went to the Gawker. Interesting. I didn't even know that there was a rumor about John Goodman being dead going around.

for those interested - Ted C. posted a semi-answer/denial to the "Lollypop" persona in this week's "awful truth" www.eonline.com under the gossip tab

Tish....good choice for the SECOND book....my dissertation will probably be my second book, but it would have always been my dissertation.

Tasha, I still don't think I'm any closer to the BI from last week. Whomever guessed Pink is OK in my book! Mamie, I hadn't heard that Goodman rumor either--thank goodness. I'm glad defamer only printed it to debunk it, since they are more popular by far than the site that originally published it. And Marm, at least you've finished your dissertation! I can only dream of the second book as a revenge fantasy right now!

Defamer has some very funny snark about the West Hollywood reaction to the Oscar noms.... "Sideways? who cares....4 heteros in wine country. BOOOOORING" "There is a lot of good buzz about Annette Bening in Being Julia, but her frozen face & rehearsed speech at Golden Globes was a little too Norma Shearer for me, and voters may pass...though, if she had the Kevin Huvane CAA machine behind her she would be a shoo-in. Not sure if she is one of Huvane's leading ladies?" [SPOILER ALERT] "Hillary Swank's star turn as yet another white trash woman who overcomes the odds, makes it big, then, well, dies, was fab. Hillary is from a real trailer park, so nobody does better skank than Swank (except maybe Juliette Lewis)." [END SPOILER ALERT] "I liked Million Dollar Baby--though Ms. Swank/Lowe (love her as we may) owes her career to ass-kicking-trailer-trash-transsexuals-with-hearts-of-gold-who-die-a -tragic-death-anyway across this great land. I for one would love to see her make a triumphant return to the franchise that launched her career. Title it The Karate Tranny and call it a day." "I want Cate Blanchett to win. Her Kate Hepburn was "raaallly I dooo" perfection." Etc.

just fyi - Ted C. stated in his column again today that the answers to his "blind vice(s)" are generally named within that same column.

Halle Berry: Hollywood Producers Racist Accuses Halle Berry American actress HALLE BERRY has accused Hollywood producers and directors of being prejudiced against black women. Berry hoped she had made a major breakthrough when she won the Best Actress ACADEMY AWARD in 2002 for her role in MONSTER'S BALL, but she has had to resort to developing films herself to create the kind of parts she wants. link i thought that was interesting. if i could offer her career advice, it would involve destroying the negatives of "catwoman"

Wow that pic of Courtney on Eccentric Froth...just wow. I'd heard her on Dave Navarro's radio show talking about gaining weight, and he was sorta teasing her about getting fat, but I thought it was just DT weight gain. But like they say on the site, she's trying to be a mother now. I wish her well.
