Much like participants of The Jersey Shore, sometimes even I need a break from the limelight. It's great to go full bore but occasionally one needs to address reality. And that's where I've been, dear readers - kickin' it in real time. As much as I love celebrity gossip (and I love it A LOT) I found I wasn't actually that happy writing my reactions to every skeevy Charlie Sheen/Lindsay Lohan/Vanessa Hudgens is nude again story. Something about it began to gnaw away at me - what started out as a fun experiment and a chance to flex my writing muscles began to feel negative. I meant for my commentary to be lighthearted and humorous - but even famous folks have feelings and I started to dislike making fun of every celeb that crossed my path. Some of you might counsel me to stop being such a pussy - but I am a pussy. I'm a girlie-girl damn it, and inside me beats a bleeding heart of sympathy. That said, I'm not going away and I haven't lost my sense of humor. Rather I'm taking time (okay, an enormous amount of time) to decide on my next move. I'm in the process of reinventing the site - same name, slightly different content. I'll still be offering my armchair philosophy on Hollywood with well-meaning snark - but I won't be covering the minutia of every story. If you're searching for that, I highly recommend Celebitchy for detailed coverage. What Would Tyler Durden Do? still leads the pack for hilarious commentary on what our crazy A-listers are up to, in my opinion.
In the meantime, I'll keep brainstorming and Tweeting - and I hope to see y'all back here soon!
