Gossip

Here is a list of some of my favorite gossip blogs/sites:

Rhymes With Snitch: news from the bathroom wall
I have a warm fuzzy spot in my heart for this blog because it was the first one that I ever discovered and eventually led me to a lot of the blogs listed below. They have a nice, easy to navigate layout, good gossip, nice pics. Go visit and show snitch some love.

Panache Report
Now this is where the party at. They have great gossip for both old and new school. I spent one weekend just reading the archives. The highlight of this site though are their blind items. Actually I take that back. The blind items are what draws you in and the comments are what keeps you staying. Sometimes the comments are better than the actual blinds. If there’s anybody’s business to be put out on front street its usually on Panache. Also Myra writes some really kool short stories that sound a little too true to be fiction. They have an email alert that you can sign up for that lets you know when the front page is changed and when a new blind is added. And when I’m not reading Snitch or adding to Who’s Dated Who, this is where I’m usually hanging out.

Who’s Dated Who
This is not REALLY a gossip site but it is becoming the premier site to see who’s hooking up with who. I started hanging out there because i thought it was a kool concept but stayed hanging out there because i was determined to become an editor so that i could add more black people to the site. I have added and updated profiles for all kinds of people and made a few friends. I’ve watched the site develop over time and want to say that the sites builder has busted his butt on making that a great site to visit.

GHETTOFABULOUS
Though I’m not a fan of the pink, overall I like the site, especially for the pictures.

Crunk & Disorderly
I go on and off this site. Sometimes they have really annoying advertising that you have to go to before you can get to the site but other times you can get right in. They usually have good party and event pics but the gossip is usually the same stuff you can find anywhere.

DListed
I like this site for the pictures and the gossip. They try not to rehash the same stuff everybody else does and if they do you get it from a different angle and with a different picture. My favorite parts are the Afternoon Crumbs where they do all the surfing for you and link to the good stuff and the CAPTION THIS Contest. I have no idea where they get those crazy ass photos but the sites worth visiting for that alone.

TMZ
Yeah I put them here. Yeah I know they’re trash. And yeah they have a bug up there ass about Gary Dourdan, but if you can’t catch it the 4 times a day it comes on tv just drop by the website.

Oh No They Didn’t!
They get honorable mention because of the cleaness of their site and that its not just all celebrities but they throw politians and a few others in the mix.

AGC Blinds
Alt.Gossip.Celebrities has a site where they post the answers to “Blind Items” that appear in magazines, newspapers and on the net. They don’t always get the answers right and sometimes they admit they’re just guessing but the blinds are fun to read.

Crazy Days and Nights
Sometimes they’re all about the photos but they have a great clean look, great blind items and post titles like “Full Frontal Friday” where you get to see great pictures of Daniel Craig front and center. And no, I don’t think Daniel Craig is hot in general. I think he’s a much better actor than he is hot but you didn’t see the picture. I’m just sayin’…

Straight Outta NYC
Good gossip, good pics, layout gets a little busy and messy sometimes but overall good site with fresh updated news.

Popbytes
You can tell as this list gets longer that I’m getting tired of writing but I don’t want to leave out sites that I think you might enjoy. I like Popbytes because they don’t have the typical gossip that i see everywhere or the stock photos that people get from getty images. I think the layout is clean and I’m loving the blue.

ConcreteLoop
Now this site has GREAT pics and a great archive. I think somebody got photoshop because I see a lot of animated gifs over there. I could spend hours just pressing the more button to get to more pictures. While other post 1 or 2 pictures from an event the loop posts a lot more so you can get those ever elusive pics of celebs with their spouses and sometimes children.

A Hot Mess!
I like this site just for the title. But they do have some good stories and pictures of hot messes and the site is nice and clean like I like. They also have a lot of video content but unlike other sites my browser doesn’t freeze when it loads the page. So I don’t know what they’re doing right but keep up the good work guys.

MediaTakeOut
This site is ACTUALLY a Hot MESS! and like the Onion, I never know if the stories are real or not but they have headlines that you just have to press to see what’s on the other side. Usually its a case of Al Capone’s vault but its still fun. Kinda like reading the Enquirer headlines while you waiting in the checkout line at the supermarket.

Expo Say
This is also not a gossip site but a place for celebrity pictures. It gets a little hard to navigate but if there is an event you’re looking for they will have ALL the pictures not just the Beyonce, Mariah, JayZ photos.

Necole Bitchy – Life’s a Bitch and then you blog
I stumbled on this site while surfing Snitch. It’s nice, neat, kool pics, nicely written. Kudos Necole. Maybe you can be the new Perez Hilton.
