Earlier today, The Hollywood Gossip staff had the temerity to refer to Perez Hilton as "uncreative and unfunny."
In response, defenders of the blogger have pointed to jealousy as the obvious reason why we'd call Hilton out. One of his fans said we were meaner than Perez. We wonder if this same individual also thinks John McCain is running a better campaign than Barack Obama.
To back up our claim that Perez Hilton is an unoriginal (mean-spirited!) hack, let's take a post from his site today. It refers to the ongoing romance between Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson.
Hilton - the photoshopping, hilarious genius that he is - has written the word "Dykons" across the top of a photo. Does a Perez apologist care to tell us what makes that kind-hearted and humorous?
We don't question Perez Hilton's popularity; we question the quality of the posts made by this self-serving blogger.
Moreover, every time Perez Hilton mentions Samantha Ronson, he spells her first name "SaMAN." Get it, readers?!? Because, see, she's gay and she looks like a man. It sure takes a lot of effort to think of that.
Perhaps when Perez comes up with an extensive celebrity photo gallery - complete with a ratings system! - his readers can accuse our staff of slacking off.

i recently stopped going to his site for precisely this reason. after he insinuated that Bernie Mac's hospitalization for pneumonia was really just for a drug habit, i had had enough. he really is mean spirited. especially his miley cyrus posts. when you give off the impression that you hate someone (which i think he does) it's really hard for it to be funny. when i want my rude comments that make me laugh i go somewhere else.

@kaykay
He's gay, so that makes it okay? NO. That makes it even worse. He's a self-loathing gay man who supposedly supports gay rights, yet hates on positive portrayals of gay couples CONSTANTLY. It's pretty disgusting, actually.

I'm an avid fan of both sites - more so of Perez Hilton because of the quality of his research, the origins of his theories, the creativity of his innuendos, but also because of his passion for promoting new talent and charitable causes. Hollywood Gossip does not promote anything except tasteless Hollywood gossip, the origins of which are most likely found on Perez's site.
There have been numerous times that THG have called out Perez Hilton, for a debate, for justification of his posts, but to no response. WHY? Because you, Hollywood Gossip, are INSIGNIFICANT in the wake of the Perez Hilton brand. You wish you had the genius to turn your site into what Perez has made, but you don't. Ride his coattails, call him out, try to get more hits by affiliating yourself with (or making an enemy of) Perezzers. Yes, Perez makes his support of Obama obvious! So what? So do other celebrities like Oprah, Tyra, Affleck, etc. He's not a certified news feed that must maintain neutrality! He's a BLOGGER and bloggers express their OPINIONS! I understand you are just expressing yours, but before you start posting, my dear Hollywood Gossip, put down the Hater-ade and take a deep breath.
PS. Stop getting your staff to post comments. It's pathetic.

i just have one question: If you hate THG and LOVE perez, why the hell are you even on our msg boards, let alone on this website?

you can tell what type of people use the perez hilton site aka kay kay. mean people who get joy out of ridiculing others, why is it funny to be nasty ? huh? i dont get it. get a real sense of humour! even more so, get a brain so then you can have a sense of humour, perez hilton is disgusting, i stopped going to his site a long time ago, when i was reading his posts i was shocked at how nasty he was, what happened to looking up to icons and brilliant actors etc and just wanted to see what they get up too in real life, hes jmaking everything into a joke, he is what the world is coming too which is sad and scary, hes ruined what a celebrity is about, an idol if you will. im just happy there is hollywood gossip, a nice site.

Thank you for saying this! Perez is a hack with some serious issues with internalized homophobia. Very sad.

Oh my god i HATE perez. he is such an idiot. TMG is miles better than him. He thinks he is God and everyone should worship him. Well I for one dont. I used to vist his site everyday and then he just got so annoying. He thinks he is so funny but he really isnt. He is just plain mean. A gay man in his position should be making the most out of a positive gay relationship but he just ridicules Lynsday and Sam. He is such a hypocrite.
As for you people who say you hate this site and its behind everything and all the other stuff you dumb asses are saying, then why the hell are you on the site never mind posting a comment. Your all just as bad as he is and just as hypocritical as him. I for one love this site and always will.
