The Scourge of C-List Celeb - and Friend of Stamos:

Jonathan Bernstein's profile of Perez Hilton in The Guardian reveals the one shocking secret left about blogebrities -- they're fucking hard workers:

You might imagine that someone so skilled at promoting hate and fear among the C-list would live a shadowy existence. But at around 6.15 every morning, Mario Lavandeira, the beefy, 28-year-old gay Cuban-American who hides behind the pseudonym Perez Hilton, sets up his laptop on a table outside the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf on the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue. Until 9.30 at night, when the club-hopping and whisper-gathering begins, he downs endless coffees and fires off endless malice-tinged posts.

Of course, it would be unwise to suggest that most professional bloggers -- hard-working though they might be -- are paragons of virtue, or even people you'd actually like to have a drink with:

He's even more incredulous when asked if he ever feels regret for anyone he might have wounded. "Not a single time. Not even when I put up the pictures of Princess Diana as she was dying. I didn't put it on my main page. I said, 'Click here to see the pictures', and even then people were outraged. But they made a choice to see those pictures and then they had the balls to fucking criticise me for it."

...unless, apparently, you're John Stamos:

"The people that last, the Tom Hankses, the Julia Robertses, my friend John Stamos, are the ones that are nice." I can't let that pass. What about Madonna - who's more horrible and unappreciative of her fans than her? Perez looks as if his head is about to explode. "Madonna's insanely talented!" But you said the people who last are the nice ones...It's almost endearing that this scourge of the C-list celeb who has Hollywood trembling is still so starstruck that he can come out with such a clueless statement.
