Jordan Reid Berkow, innocent victim of online bullying, has once again found some rando idea to co-opt for her blog. Lately I’ve been loving Lisa Eldridge’s instructional videos in which she tests out different beauty products and brands, and yesterday evening I got all inspired to do one of my own. My video is less beautifully shot than Lisa’s are – we’re talking 100% natural lighting (no one’s friend) and a very fancy set called My Bedroom, but hey…work with what you got, right? Ok...in my head I read this: "I've been watching someone else do something really well, and I...

Famous person Jordan Reid Berkow knows about being interviewed. The most important thing to remember? You can totally talk about Crap you're clueless about if you give 'em snappy soundbites! When I prep for an interview, basically what I do is establish my “talking points” (the major ideas I want to get across; they’re sometimes provided to you by the interviewer or producer in advance) and jot down a few “sound bites”. Sound bites are essentially snappy sentences or phrases that get your point across succinctly and with a bit of panache – they’re what producers are usually looking to snag...

Jordan Reid Berkow, shillshacklesham founder, has spent the last week (oh who are we kidding, the last year) shilling for pretty much any free product that gets thrown her way. So far in last week or so we have her shillcasting for wool Crap, watches, and attempting to get free floor refinishing. Now today Jordan is apparently trying to be shillervicey with her shillgasms over coconut oil... Coconut oil, by the way, is excellent for the immune and digestive systems, has tons of antioxidants, and is commonly thought of as one of the healthier fats. She advises us to get craaayzay!...

Mary Rambin, consultant, likes to talk about fashion and stuff. She's been pretty busy working and Playa-ing, so we haven't seen much of her style wisdom lately. Well, she must have just done a cleanse and a spin class, because she somehow had the energy to share a style link and take a swipe at Julia Allison's Attention Whore Barbie style: If you’ve been with me for a while, you remember the years of Julia convincing me to dress up in tutus for photo shoots, silver spandex to lipdub in Times Square, and even getting me to hot glue together...

Meghan McCain, writer, pundit, person with self-confidence, is finally speaking out about your perceptions of her: I can't believe after all the time, and columns and tattoos....there are still some morons out there thinking I'm gonna change or want to about 5 hours ago via web plenty of women in politics out there repressing their personality and sexuality, just could never bring myself to do that, not starting now about 5 hours ago via web I'm glad Megatits is finally bringing this up. I've been wondering what she thinks about the judgments people make about her body and looks, being...

Sigh. Jordan Reid Berkow Hipster, founder of ramshackleglam and shillster extraordinaire, has spent the last three days posting about her free trip to Cancun. She has blathered on in her typical aren't-I-adorable-yet-useless style, passing us tips about guacamole and crowdsourcing how to fix a sunburn. In case you don't already have the She's Turning Into Julia vibe, let's check out today's post: After an early-morning gym session (leaf: overturned) and quick steam, I headed to a meeting with the resort execs to find out more about the Park Royal Grand. What I learned: while you can totally stay in the...

Meghan McCain, known for her stellar taste in bff's, is now apparently letting Julia Allison move past hinting at dinners. Now they are announcing to twitter that they are TEXTING EACH OTHER YALL: juliaallison Late night insomniac texting with @McCainBlogette. Love that girl! :) about 6 hours ago via Echofon mccainblogette @juliaallison neither of us sleep, we should be studied in a lab! :-) about 7 hours ago via web in reply to juliaallison Why can't these people just pick up their iphones and CALL EACH OTHER? Why do they feel the need to announce that they are talking to...

The girl formerly known as "Midwest Jess", and then as What I Wore's Jessica Schroeder, wannabe model/fashion designer/fatty hater Jessica Quirk, lives in the Park Slope area of Brooklyn. Surrounded by squalor in her depressed ghetto neighborhood in the middle of crack houses and an underground baby selling ring, poor Jess has to endure endless assaults to her delicate midwest senses. Take this entry for example: I hate Park Slope I just got home from brunch to see the front tire was stolen off my bike, cutting the breaks in the process. I hate Park Slope. It’s not just that...

Jordan Reid Berkow Stauch, person who DOES NOT HAVE A TRUST FUND OK? is apparently helping her Daddy raffle off some 72,000 dollar motorcycle for a school! God that Jordan is so giving. My dad is one of the owners of Pro Italia, a motorcycle shop in LA that specializes in Ducatis (basically the Ferraris of the motorcycle world). For those of you who watch Entourage, the shop was where Vince bought four motorcycles for himself and his boys. Last year, if you recall, I worked the Cafe Desmo event for Pro Italia (and met Steve Jones, who allegedly asked...

Since it came up in comments, I thought I'd throw out a post on Cary Randolph,writer, sartorial person, shirt-as-dress wearer. Several months ago she locked up her twitter, and since then I haven't paid much attention to her. Yesterday she came up in the comments, with juliaspublicist asking the question on all our minds: whatever happened to Scary Mandolph? It seems Cary has left New York City. From her tumblr: slowlybecoming asked: Wait a minute? Did you move? Are you no longer a New Yorker? Moved to Newport, R.I. and love it! To quote John Cougar Mellencamp, I can breathe...

Following the mysterious disappearance of the blog "This Is Why You're Fat", the project previously started jointly by Richard Blakeley and former girlfriend Jessica Amason,  an anonymous tipster sends us the following information: Richard sabotaged the site itself from within Tumblr as well as sabotaged the shared Facebook page – removing all press that mentioned co-creator Jessica and barred her as an administrator. All of the above was done on the eve of him admitting guilt to the details of the physical assault in exchange for accepting a plea bargain of Harrassment in the 2nd Degree & thus avoiding actual...

Emily Ghouuuuld, sort of famous 3  years ago for rolling her eyes at fameballs (while self-promoting herself into the Times), would like to tell you about privacy issues and the Facebook debate! First important point to make: remind you that she worked at Gawker. When Gawker Media announced that all employees we were required to have Facebook profiles, in 2007, some of my coworkers were decidedly un-thrilled at this encroachment on their private lives.  Others shrugged; they’d already been on Facebook for ages.  I was somewhere between the two camps — I’d lived through the heyday of Friendster, I didn’t...

thisiswhyyourefat.com, the blog-now-book created by Blakeley and then-girlfriend Jessica, has now been offline for several days with no explanation, though this error was displayed by tumblr for a couple of days. The website is now simply a white blank server not found page. No word on whether this has anything to do with a rumored tv show or the outcome of Blakeley's sentence, or whether the blog will be returning, but it's a little hard to promote sales of a book based on a blog when there is no blog.

Jesus Christ. Jordan Reid, person who has been on the internet for 23 minutes, is now going to begin complaining about how she is so above all this negativity. Negativity which should not even exist, btw. I’m a fairly self-deprecating person in general – I’ve always been a pretty easy target for those who are looking to make fun of someone, ever since I was little – but lately I’ve noticed that I’m getting even more so. I put up videos of me screwing up recipes, go on and on about my “non-expertise,” and rag on myself for everything from...

David Karp, boyfriend of ULTRA CHIO Rachel who let's face it is the only interesting participant in that relationship, has placed his own mother in the "Recommended Blogs" widget of tumblr. Anyone who wants to act like it's not who you know in that crowd can now proceed to pick an acre of my ass to kiss.

Jordan Reid, expert and beautiful home haver, went on record with her expert tips on how to have an expert organised home for an expert to live in: Experts speak: Easiest ways to organize a home office ... SheKnows spoke to three experts about their do's and don’ts for home office organization. Jordan Reid, founder of RamshackleGlam.com Do: Just say no to paper. “Invest in a scanner and get all those documents that you have floating around onto your hard drive,” Jordan says. She cautions that, if you go with this method, you should invest in a backup drive for...

Meghan McCain, plus size advocate, is putting her people skills to work. She is currently in Denver and was happily eating room service when some TOTAL JERK dared to ask her a question about a TOPIC!!! chrisgeidner : So, @McCainBlogette, will you tell @ColoradoSkiUSA your position on the #DADT amendment passed by the House in May? about 11 hours ago via Twitter for iPhone in reply to McCainBlogette Um...excuse you? Megatits does not need to answer that. She already addressed it ok? @chrisgeidner have you thought to google me? I have written columns and spoke publicly about my support for...

In the first documented case of dividing by zero, GOMIBLOG is posting two back to back wtf's about David Karp. Since you have nothing going on in your life, you no doubt remember that after tumblr got their latest round of funding David Karp and his omg totally chio girlfriend Rachel traipsed off to Japan - I assume for their one year anniversary, her birthday, or just because they wanted to. Upon their return they felt they deserved another gift to David and Rachel: a completely redecorated apartment. Well apparently their new furnie (furnie for furniture...that's how the cool kids...

Top secret superspy Rolls Royce Revenge attended the Tardsandtaints Ball last night. So....how was it? Meh. So I attended. It really wasn’t any worse than any party at Marquee. Marquee, for those not in New York, is a nightclub designed to remind you why you stopped going to nightclubs: too-low lighting, too-loud music, trashy decor, small, cramped rooms, uncomfortable seating, expensive service and tacky drinks. It’s normally filled up with post-Thursday-Chelsea-art-gallery-crawl escapees, entry-level account executives for toilet paper PR firms and girls from Hoboken who wish they were someplace else. If you told me the Webuturd crowd was actually the...

Gaby Darbyshire, COO of Gawker Media (above), allegedly sent out an internal memo last week to Gawker staff regarding Richard Blakeley's sentence. With the Webutante Ball tomorrow head honchos no doubt wanted to quell any possibility of drama since both Blakeley and booze will be in attendance. What follows is the memo in its entirety: from Gaby Darbyshire <gaby@gawker.com> to all@gawker.com date Thu, Jun 3, 2010 at 6:27 PM subject Company policy Some of you are aware that last week Richard Blakeley's pending criminal case came to a conclusion. It is naturally a sensitive topic and several people have asked what the...
