Here We Go...

So, why does the world need another blog about Hollywood culture? Well, it probably doesn't need one. The world doesn't need Hollywood at all, but that's a world I wouldn't want to live in.

Aren't celebrities just so much fun? That's how I become mildly obsessed with celebrities and everything Hollywood. It was my final semester in college. I was channel surfing. And that's when I discovered it--E!. The program was The E! True Hollywood story of Beverly Hills, 90210 and I was hooked. I told myself that it was educational as well as fun. But now the facade is off. I'm addicted to the whole culture.

I have no credentials to claim that my opinions are any more valid than anyone else's. No Hollywood connections (that I know of). I've written a little book called Celebrities' Most Wanted: The Top 10 Book of Lavish Lifestyles, Tabloid Tidbits, and Superstar Oddities. But really, I'm just a junkie for this stuff. I visit TMZ.com and Eonline.com before CNN.com because, you know, if anything really important happens the entertainment websites will cover it too. And my nightly news consists of E! News and TMZ with much the same philosophy. It's so much more pleasant than the "real" news. Hollywood gives you something to envy, despise, crush on, and feel sorry for in one fell swoop. It's the soap opera that never ends.

I guess this blog is a continuation of my book that my publisher doesn't get to edit. But it also seems more "me" than my book that is factual (and of course is a must read for anyone interested in the celebrity scene ;) ). These are solely my feelings on the goings on in Hollywood. You know how there are always places to comment after articles posted on celebrity news websites? Well, these are my responses. Hopefully anyone who comes across this blog will not be offended by my opinions, but hey, they're mine and I'm fearless when the vast ocean of anonymity that is the Internet separates me from my adversaries. Feel free to respond, I love hearing other points of view and arguing. Just no politics or religion!


Ok, enough of this. From now on it's all Hollywood all the time...
