Perez Messes With Texas
You might have heard about some of the newer faces in Austin this year. And how they hosted parties. Well apparently Rachael's was delicious, and here's a review of the Perez Hilton show via, umm, Perez Hilton:
Our party was epic. Definitely the talk of all Austin.
Of course it was, Perez. Well, actually we can't speak to how epic it was because we never quite made it. It did seem a lot of people wanted to go, although most wouldn't fess up to more than simple curiosity, or the desire to see Robyn (we can relate). Alongside the Swedish pop princess, Hilton had N.E.R.D. ("He's connected to the kids, he's connected to our demographic," Pharrell tells the AP) and, according to the L.A. Times, "fruity drinks, mini-cupcakes, gift bags ... and hairstylists offering free makeovers." And as he's posted, "Next year, we're doing it again - only bigger and even better!" Which we're pretty sure means makeovers + lessons in Photoshopping cum stains. The blogger talked to NME post-party:
True, Perez was difficult to avoid this year. And not just the "phenomenon" -- we saw him everywhere, once looking as bummed as we were to read this sign, and then outside Stubb's talking about L.A.'s the Smell (which, in fairness, he only knew about because the Gossip had played there the night before ... but still look out HEALTH: you're next).

Perez needs to just shut the eff up about music. Kudos to Stereogum for always calling him out in a very polite manner.
Score = 4
I'm still kind of baffled by how he managed to score Robyn.
Score = 0
Anybody who is disappointed that Radiohead is headlining Lollapalooza has no credibility when it comes to music in my book.
Score = 1
again... who in the fuck is Robyn?
Score = -5
how is this idiot famous? he writes on pictures via photoshop????? And were does this fat little troll get off bashing other peoples looks? I guess i don't understand society anymore......
Score = 1
Not only was Perez (apparently) everywhere at SXSW, he's also everywhere on every blog that talked about SXSW. I'm so tired of seeing his dumb picture! I was doing pretty well at living a Perez-free life before SXSW happened.
Score = 0
I think Perez is lying about being the talk of Austin.
Score = 1
I think someone should videotape themselves punching him in his meth-scarred face. YouTube immortality awaits!
Score = 2
Robyn is so much better than that, however Perez is probably the best way for her to get her name out in the US (again).
Score = 0
