You pick and choose, and if they have a comment section, use it. I think the real fanatics are the ones who go ballistic if you say anything critical. (trust me...say anything about towleroad and his drooling over str8 boys and constant inuendo that they're secretly gay.) They do the real disservice. Although setting up an entire MySpace site is pretty insane. Every blog has its fans and its detractors. You pick and choose, and if they have a comment section, use it.

It seems like these two washed-up, dried out has-beens have a lot in common. Whatever happened to Hollywood glamour, style and a sense of decorum? Joan Crawford is spinning in her grave like a dradle in a sandstorm. I came accross this quote today about Tom Ford on Towleroad.com and it got my attention because I thought it was about Trent:

He was decent until he crawled up and made a home in Paris' vagina after he met her. If that's not selling out I don't know what is. Wow, Perez Hilton’s blog isn’t a sellout?

I read Pink is the New Blog. It is entertaining and I certainly can see that Trent gets many perks from his blog. I don't really care. I read it cause it is funny. I saw that this person had made a whole site against it. I was curious since it is not like Pink is hard hitting news or anything...it's fun gossip fluff. I left a comment that was not mean, just honest. I gave the person this link. They didn't post my comment since it was not in support of them, which is one of this person's biggest bitches about Pink is the New Blog. I find that funny. I love when people get all high and mighty about something and then do the exact same thing. And when they have nothing to say about that, they attack my spelling. Thank god they invented spell check or I never would have graduated college. I can't spell for shit! Good day all. Flor,

As far as I can see he has no discernible talent or identity. What can this guy put down on a resume? Blogging? Celebrity whore? How can a personality so shallow garner so much attention? Also, how can such a personality band together the illiterate? I can feel the suck of the vacuousness from here. Honestly, I don’t know why everyone is getting worked up over this Trent guy.

C'mon! Trent knows the VH1 show details are true! Why doesn't someone ask his version of the Beverly Strong story? Natalie, ask him. I dare you. All of this shit can't be made up you fucking sheep!

As far as censoring comments to only allow praise on his blog, that's his right but it's suspect because it makes him look like he has something to hide. Finally, plugging your whereabouts on your blog so people will show up and shower you with swag and free passes to events in order to get a mention on your site is shameless, unethical and gives new meaning to the word sellout. Imagine if a newspaper journalist, a TV reporter, a chef, or even Oprah accepted kickbacks for praise--everyone would riot. I'm just saying, Dustin Dear Lauren,

No one is saying Trent can’t express his opinion–as long as it’s his and not paid for by some movie studio or advertisor.

Too kind really. Too trusting. I read some of the blog posts on the link you provided and this one stuck out for me, a comment from Trent's blog: "So Trent. There are a lot of people disappointed with you. I think it must be known that you have basically sold your soul for this show of yours on VH1. Three of your friends, the ones that actually created the series for you based on your blog, have been kicked aside, which you allowed to happen, for this damn show of yours. All because your agent at CAA and the lame-ass Execs at VH1 stole this show away from your three friends! How could you let this happen? How dare you Trent. You used to be the good guy. You used to stand for all that was fun and crazy about Hollywood, but now you're just like all of the rest in Tinsletown. Karma is a Bitch Trent. Be careful for what goes around, comes around! " Beverly Strong | Email | Homepage | 02.10.06 - 5:53 pm | This comment seems insightful and angry. I'm sure Trent knows who this Beverly person really is, people can't make this stuff up. My question is, how many people does a blogger have to screw over before people start to question his ethics? Just asking, Dustin Natalie,
