Académies des snide

The plus side here for J.Simp is that her latest might not be as bad as several of the photos in this collection. The negative, of course, is that it's still not good:

From having seen her in person at this event -- the Project Runway finale -- I can confirm she had so much makeup on her face that I seriously suspect she might've caked orange foundation on every square inch of visible skin just so that she'd be a uniform color. Too bad the color is Orange Julius. And I'm not sure I can even talk about how unflattering the top is on her. Child, you are DATING a football player, not trying to look like one.

I know Jessica Simpson only as an object of scornful commentary by celebrity buzzers.  Is she a singer, an actor, Lady Gaga? Don't answer; I don't care. What fascinates me with the celebrity observation blogs (like Agent BedHead ) is the sardonic and pithy writing style that pervades. It's a skill particularly useful when talking about politicians, a C&S mainstay.  These sites then are Académies des snide, places to hone one's delivery.  Go Fug Yourself has Ivy League status in the genre. And, it makes me laugh.

Hey Rog,
I completely agree about the writing style on these sites. I don't give a crap about celebrity culture and all the bs that goes with it, but the ripping & tearing that takes place on these things is occasionally something to behold. Try What Would Tyler Durden Do .com for perhaps the top end in well written, stylized, celebrity killing.

Tyler Durden never killed anyone.

The best I can say about J-Simp is that she didn't become famous by a homemade porn movie. Actually, I don't know how she got famous-- somehow she was famous before doing anything noteworthy. Give some credit to her publicist.

At least her equally talentless sister Ashlee crashed and burned on live TV (the SNL lip-syncing incident) and we don't have to be bothered by her any more.
