Has anyone here interviewed Beth Ditto in the past 6 months?

another fat drug addict with an opinion

this actually happened, ppl.

Perez Hilton isn’t just a celebrity blogger. He’s a serious cultural force. Love him or hate him, at 7 million clicks a day, his infiltration into people’s daily lives is something most media outlets would die for. And more impressive is the fact that he does it all from a Wi-Fi connection in a West Hollywood coffee shop. Perez’s bread and butter might be the glossy celebs that get stripped bare on his sometimes scathing, occasionally sweet and always amusing site. But his championing of underdogs such as Beth Ditto stems from a true support for the underground and a kinship for “loud, obnoxious and openly gay” individuals, like the blogger himself.

he has an office now

oh thank god.

Nuclear holocaust in etc etc

his story about castro being "dead" made the cover of the wall street journal today. but so did a picture of the geico caveman sitcom.

How is Beth Ditto an "underdog" when she's in music magazines all the time, has a weekly column in the guardian, plays all over the place with her band, is on the radio etc etc?

I keep seeing this name "perez hilton", who is this person? Srsly I have no idea!

because she is a gross fat lesbian with annoying views

Her guardian column is totally boring.

There's this thing called Google or Wikipedia.

is beth ditto really a lesbian tho?

where does your doubt stem from

I started typing some considered response up, but realised that i don't give much of a fuck about some shit singer in a drab crap band or less still some celebrity gossip blogger. Fuck that.

i mean she probably is a lesbian but i wouldn't put it above someone her to pretend and/or "go along" w/ being a lesbian because it gets her on the cover of nme and urb or whatever.
same as i that doubt beth ditto is going on a diet anytime soon.
skinny straight chicks in band aren't in demand unless you look like jenny lewis.

someone

in rock bands*

your last comment is mindblowingly inaccurate

i figured it might be a little o_O.

i have nothing against her as a person thought. not knocking the hustle as they say.

dude, Jenny Lewis ain't even pretty

i kind of agree w/ you re: jenny lewis, but that's def. not the consensus.

but the consensus is in fact skinny straight chicks in bands will always be in demand

naw, they get fat too. you're better off with all dudes.

well of course. but mag. covers are more likely to go to fergie or gwen stefani or rihanna than the girl from paramore or something.

lol, first ou say "being a lesbian... gets her on the cover of nme and urb or whatever" then you cite three non-lesbians as being something "mag. covers are more likely to go to"

DOES. NOT. COMPUTE.

was in response to cutty saying skinny straight girls in rock bands are in demand (i think he misconstrued me cause i meant for the purposes of selling max amounts of cds and making the covers of magazines).

they should change the title to "new lesbian express."

hey maybe devendra banhart is a lesbian

too macho

being a lesbian, that is

Great thread.

"If you want to look at it like that, all music is pretty fucking gay"

I don't get it, did the band name change from The Gossip to Gossip?

Has she always been such a fucking turd? Regarding the last question--I'm pretty sure men get asked that, too. All the time.

Spent an afternoon with this woman in the summer. She's a fucking idiot. She had a brown paper bag full of sugar she kept eating from. Yuck.

Did Dom Passantino have a wank over that NME cover with Beth Ditto on it?

Come friendly bombs, fall on the 21st century

was hoping this would just be another snakes on a plane revive

Yeah, I did. Here's an excerpt:

KBP: yo dyke bitch lose some fucking weight

Beth Ditto: What?

KBP: maybe if you stop eating pussy you wont be such a fukkin lardass

Beth Ditto: Have you read my Guardian articles??

KBP: yah ever since dom passantino got sacked yo the only fat queer writing from them

lollll

ho!

The word 'icon' could do with laying to rest.

Did Dom Passantino have a wank over that NMELOVE cover with Beth Ditto on it?

the gossip must be pretty pissed that channel 4 hasnt used any of their music for the promotion of their new wave of 16 year old anoerexics getting off with each other drama

Is this an established mag I've never seen or should this have revived the rolling edgy magazine thread instead?

It's a new mag. There are quite a lot of posters for it pasted up in Soho at the minute.

she looks good though you cant argue.
hope this mag does better than the last edgy pop mag. what was it called? PULP? that one that folded while issue 1 was still on the stands.

It didn't run with the common people.

That's a "fashion and fame" mag not a pop mag.
