takes one to know one

1. Anderson Cooper devoting untold hours to analyzing Paris Hilton is the most curious, fabulous, irritating thing ever. Who else is in a better position to do this than Gloria Vanderbilt's son? An intelligent, accomplished heiress deconstructing, um, Paris.

2. Mister Husband had no idea why in the world I thought we absolutely had to watch this. Dude, Anderson just interviewed Larry King about interviewing Paris while a Temple University assistant professor offered color commentary. This sort of meta-media pileup only happens so often.

(That said, did I watch the actual interview? Yes, until the first commercial break. I couldn’t take it anymore past that.)

Comments

You know, I watched this last night . . . even though I hated watching her speak . . . or mumble . . . or whatever. I hated it, yet I still watched it. I kept wondering if someone was feeding her answers though an earpiece (hidden beneath her hair), but then I decided that her "handlers" couldn't have been that stupid, that it really had to be her.

Hey Hey Hey,

Dino calling from California. Trying to reach Jeff Ward. I am working on a collaborative Slim archive and would love for you to participate. What I am trying to do is consolidate all Scott's music, videos, images, artworks, articles, etc on-line. Please contact me if you are willing to contribute any material.

Thanks Jeff,

Dino Giacomazzi aka Sid Furious aka Dino of Dino's Farm.
