WhatWouldTylerDurdenDo

www.wwtdd.com

no so much celebrity gossip; rather like celebrity slamming. has raw celeb info but followed by webhost commentary. not for everyone.

(i find this guy to be a much funnier writer than Perez Hilton).

Pink is the New Blog cuz I don't have time to keep up with Perez Hilton or the other multiple times a day blogs.

When I do have more time though I like Best Week Ever.

In my opinion Oh No They Didn't! and Pink is the New Blog, both linked above, cover all the bases without going into nasty Perez territory.

if you're into stupid celebrity fashion, you can go wrong with Go Fug Yourself.

Leave Um Alohan
Evil Beet Gossip
Crazy Days and Nights (this guy has the best blind items; I have no idea if he's real or not, but it's entertaining enough that I'm willing to take my chances).

The aptly named The Superficial

I love Splash, it's less gossip and more about the paparazzi pictures.

but for pure harshness and hilariousness (is that a word?), Celeb Slam is the way to go.

My wife loves Pop Sugar.

not just celeb gossip, but jezebel is my favorite.

wwtdd.com
thesuperficial.com

These guys have good content and really funny. Unlike perez they really are not partial to any celebrities so they present a really funny view.

TMZ is a fun source of all things celebrity. If you like WWTDD and The Superficial, check I Don't Like You In That Way. Similarly snarky, althought the three sites often seem to be running the same news items.

This is adding so many more links to my daily reading. I'd feel shame, but this is part of the reason I destroy all comers in pop culture trivia.

Thirding Oh No They Didn't! They generally cover all of the other gossip blogs, including ones mentioned here like The Superficial, JustJared, Pink is the New Blog, and Jezebel.

Dlisted (the best. snarky and super fun)
Perez (lots of gossip and frequent updates, but heavy on the Britney info and his own self promotion)
The Superficial
TMZ
X17
Just Jared

TheSuperficial is the only one I read anymore, I dropped Perez Hilton and Pink is the New Blog. I just think TheSuperficial is funnier and more varied.

+1 Go Fug Yourself It's celebrity gossip in picture book (er, blog) form. And the writers are intelligent, snarky, and lovable all at the same time.

Go Fug Yourself
Pink is the new blog

The Popbitch newsletter if you want gossip with a British slant (though the include the really big international celebs too. And otters.)
posted by fearfulsymmetry at 3:14 PM on November 28, 2007

What, no Page Six? Or New York Daily News? Cindy Adams drops knowledge from time to time. Adding New York Social Diary to the mix will put faces to the NY names in Page Six. There's also Bossip, Jossip and Young, Black and Fabulous. There's also World of Wonder, which isn't really gossip, but is kinda.

Nothing beats DListed for good, snarky fun.

What Chuck Cheeze meant to say about 20 posts above was that his wife likes to visit WeSmirch. Great automated site (from the makers of memeorandum and techmeme) that compiles the most-linked gossip stories of the day -- all sites mentioned in this thread will appear on WeSmirch if a story is hot. If you want just one link to a gossip site -- that's it.

Egotastic is a good photo-blog with a lot of solid links to many of the above mentioned blogs.

+1 for OhNoTheyDidn't - I've been hanging around on there since Mary Kate Olsen was anorexic (2003).

+1 for dlisted. I can't read it at work because I always burst out laughing. :)

Mr. Stynxno has a gossip blog that is as good as his gossip posts here on Metafilter: babyrunaround.
