Ok I'm a bit obsessed with celeb gossip sites terrible I know lol it's such a vice. My office just blocked perezhilton and tmz so sad

Maybe a blessing in disguise. Try this site instead for complete misappropriation of work hours. I hit at least 1 random article a day.

Damn Interesting

Well I blame part of it being on the industry I'm in lol eh it's like a lifetime movie...such a guilty pleasure

What industry would that be? Are you a paparazzi?

lol I work in the beauty and fashion industry and my boss is a celeb make up artist and photographer

Other people's obsessions are a fascination of mine - and celeb gossip as an obsession I just do not understand at all...

What is the appeal of it?

Why do you enjoy it?

I'm a people watcher. If I'm sitting on the subway or eating out I just observe people. I always had an interest in psychology and sociology. Celebs are people too but it's like an on going case study with all of them lol Other than that I have no idea what the addiction is

People watching is one thing -

but celeb gossip is really just reporting - sometimes errorneously on the comings and goings of people who are in the public eye.. and the reporters seem to look for the bad...

I get totally sucked into sites like perezhilton and ohnotheydidnt too...so addicting. I was following all the Britney meltdown stuff and it was just such a trainwreck, I couldn't look away.

i'm a frequenter of perezhilton (I LOVE TEDDY HILTON!)

and dlisted.

Theres something about making "the beautiful people" look bad that raises my self-esteem
