Strange Bedfellows

toriperezhilton

From a new interview with Out magazine:

I know Perez Hilton is a big fan of yours — is the feeling mutual? Do you think he and his cohorts work for the forces of good or the forces of evil?
I don’t go on the website all the time because I’d never get anything done if I did, and he knows that. But when the lights are off and you’re just sitting and talking to him he’s a wonderful force.

And there’s something about his particular brand of panache or style that you can get behind?
I think he’s funny, but more than that, he’s very smart. He’s scary smart. And that’s why this is occurring — because he’s extremely intelligent. No different than Brian — Marilyn Manson.

    You know, that excuse does't always work. "When you are one-on-one, s/he is really nice/great/interesting blah blah blah." Maybe, if someone is painfully shy or something, then yeah, fine. If, however, someone is an extroverted asshole, it is a different matter. Because then it is less social anxiety and CHOOSING to be a right twatt - that choice bespeaks of personality. So yeah, you may be nice, in private, but you choose to be an ass in public. No excuse for that. MM, regardless of whether you like his music, is usually intelligent/provoking. Hell, even when he is blitzed. That isn't nearly the same as drawing jizz wiht MS paint.

    This really disappointed me, but I seriously doubt she really has an idea of what he's like. She's always talking about how she doesn't get on the internet (like, ever, she probably just said she sometimes looked at it to be nice), and just doesn't pay attention to pop culture in general. All she knows is that this celebrity blogger loves her music, so she thinks she should say something flattering about him in return based on an hour of talking to the dude. Anybody can pretend to be smart for at least 2 hours if those are the only 2 hours you're ever going to know this person.

    I've been in love with Tori for 14 years, and her fondness for Perez won't change my mind. I could be wrong, but I don't think I am.

    I like how she can only tolerate talking to him with the lights off.

    Oh, Tori. While misogyny is certainly a force, I wouldn't call it wonderful.

    If Perez is so smart, then I am a goddamned idiot savant, because I have been drawing penises coming out of his ass for two years now. I'm just sayin that I'll probably see him at a mensa meeting. P.s. Do you know that, in Spanish, "menso" means retarded? "Mensa," then, is a retarded girl. Sounds just about right for Perez.

    So, the picture was taken in his room and that creepy little doll beside her is a voodoo doll. That's why she's talking some crazy shit. He's in control over her thoughts.

    No. 9 yeah says:

    Tori, Tori, Tori…no wonder your music is so pained and in depth…you're still trying to understand the human condition. Hint: talk to one and not that walking asshole. Might enlighten your life and make for more good stuff from you…but for now? I think I'll pass on giving that dick any kind of props.

    Childish boor who pooped his pants until he was 12 and probably still does. At least he has lots of clothing to wear as his shit ain't selling at Hot Topic. Enjoy, scuzz bag. Karma's coming….

    Once, Jon Stewart stated in an interview that everyone he met that met George Bush explained how nice Bush is one-on-one. One-on-one.

    Anyway you slice it, he still makes more money than all of us. That's fucking insane. Why I don't jump off a building some days .. I just don't know …

    Wow, I really like Tori… but her statement really blows…worse than Perez..

    No. 13 akra says:

    Uh, who is "us," exactly? Anyway, you're a wee bit oversensitive. It's not so insane that horrible people make more money than you or me. Wealthy people of various degrees of immorality are all over the place - Trump, O'Reilly, Limbaugh, Mugabe…

    …Rupert Murdoch, Bush Sr. and Jr, Cheney, Rove - I guess that whole regime.

    No. 15 Alice says:

    Well, akra, I suppose "us" is the people on this site. I'm going to assume that the people who post on this site generally aren't millionaires. I coudl be wrong, but I see it as a safe assumption.

    And, truth be told, I made my comment for humour's sake. It was an exaggeration. But, yeah, sometimes it bugs me that jerks have huge quantities of cash.

    But it's ok for me to think/feel that way because I'm human and not perfect

    Well, Alice, just please don't jump off any buildings during the darker moments of your human imperfection. That's all.

    I won't. I mean, I'm afraid of heights.
