Hey Perez, What would Coco Think?

by Ruthie Friedlander | 9:41 am, August 14th, 2009

Yesterday marked the launch of Perez Hilton’s new site, CocoPerez.com, Perez’s new fashion blog, “integrating content, shopping, and celebrities to create a unique community for trendsetters, fashion industry influencers, and celebrities to go for inspiration.”

The first post features Perez in a fuscia silk blazer, in his zebra wallpapered closet, dancing to Lady Gaga’s song, “Fashion,” in true Perez spirit. The site is set up much like his regualar stomping grounds with videos, photos of celebrities and ad campaigns, and brief news clips.

Despite the online juggernaut that is PerezHilton.com, from a fashion perspective, this site’s content is, to put it lightly, a yawn: We are few too many days past interest in Agyness Deyn’s Michael Jackson shoot in this month’s Harper’s Bazaar, and the Lily Allen Chanel ad campaign has been covered since the middle of July.

While Perez’s playful approach to both style and celebrity is refreshing — one must wonder, can a blog exist on Anna Wintour hatred and Gossip Girl obsession alone? I think not. Step it up Perez.

Bo Obama: The Alpha and Omega Dog

by Tommy Christopher | 7:49 am, Thursday

Everyone knows that Bo Obama is the First Dog, but The History Channel's Life After People recently imagined what it would be like if he ended up being the last dog, too. In last night's episode, the show examined the likely fate of the White House, among other world leaders' domiciles, if all the people on Earth were suddenly wiped out. Maybe it's a case of "Old Yeller Syndrome" (which dictates that, in movies, it's much worse to kill a dog than a human), but the producers predict a far-too-rosy fate for Bo. Read no further if you cherish their delusion.

Spring Fever: Robert Gibbs to Hold Briefing in Rose Garden

by Tommy Christopher | 8:03 pm, Wednesday

At yesterday's White House briefing, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs, noting the fine weather, suggested moving the briefing outdoors. The remark got an enthusiastic response from the press corps, and Gibbs said he'd work on it. To his credit, he works awfully fast. The White House has just announced that Gibbs will be holding tomorrow's briefing, the first since his promise, in the Rose Garden.

If only all the White House's promises could be fulfilled so quickly.
