Aside from the fact that Jigga now apparently takes fashion cues from Slipknot, I can’t knock his hustle exhibited at the DJ Hero party held last night at the Wiltern. However, my misanthropy game stays tight over at the Weekly, where I ponder the idea of the DJ hero vis a vis DJ AM, the secret to corporate survival in the midst of economic depression, and whether or not Kim Kardashian and Simon Rex will make an impromptu sex tape on the red carpet. All this and more…
I also spent the first half of yesterday on a beach in Malibu with Lil Wayne, Mack 10, Rick Ross, their blunt holders, and 25 video hos. There was jai alai, badminton, and a motorized Good Humor Ice Cream cart. I could not make this up if I tried. We’ll talk more about that tomorrow.

The first half of this article is on some David Foster Wallace Steez.

Jesus. Having once spent a truly awful two weeks covering similar Hollywood events (though none this egregious), I couldn’t agree more on your LA Murphy’s Law. Glad to hear you made it out alive.

This maybe my favorite thing you have ever written. This sounds positively awful. I’m glad I made the choice to live in New York instead of Los Angeles.
