>>> Awww, poor baby, are you upset because Repo Records wouldn’t take your CD on consignment?
>>> Oh, or maybe you’re upset because Need New Body is getting all the chicks.
>>> In any case, it sucks. Maybe it would just be best to tell everyone you’re never playing Philly again, and then very quickly book two [...]

The world is a big place. It allows for every type of person. Like let’s say, for instance, that you had a cousin who was the biggest gangsta in town. Not gangsta like ODB, but more like Henry Hill. But you didn’t like Henry Hill. You liked ODB! And maybe that cousin was also known [...]

Well, we’d be lying if we didn’t say that lately, Philebrity has been growing so fast (it’s all the carbs) that on some days, it feels like we’re being crushed under the weight of our own giant bruiser of an ego. So after lots of crying, even more family therapy, and plenty of Oxys, we [...]

Ok, so yesterday, we reported on the imbroglio surrounding local band Trouble Everyday’s we’re-never- playing-in-Philly-again hissyfit. And boy, you people ate it up. (As evidenced by the fan-generated graphic you see before you. Look closely and you can even spot our illustrious editor crying a single blue tear. Classic.) Well, one reader wasn’t so jazzed. [...]

And also rocking possibly the most succinct analysis of the Philly ethos we’ve ever heard:
“Down South, guys is cool,” Williams says. “Philly, they get mad at you. They’ll be like, ‘He’s got 20s. I want 22s. He’s got four TVs, give me five.’”
When you think about it that way, Ron White was kind [...]

It’s a rare day here at Philebrity when somebody does something so patently stupid that it stops us in our tracks. I mean, stupidity is our business. It’s the currency in which we trade, and we follow the gains and losses in the stupidity market like a bunch of Gordon Goddamn Geckos. It’s what we [...]

>>> Some dude is actually getting dough to write a biography of M. Night Shyamalan. Tenative title: Watching Paint Dry And Being Scared Are The Same Things To Me.
>>> Bella Vista Social Club picks the Daily News covers it would most like to see on t-shirts and tote bags. We’re holding out for the next [...]

And while our inner bitch really does wonder if at this point that’s a liability or not, it’s still nice to see The A-Sides looking all pouty and sullen. Who knows? Maybe somewhere in the world, there’s some poor closeted soul, age of 35, clad in Dockers and Old Navy, who’ll see these guys and [...]

… the real story in this Dan Gross bit is the part he slides right under the door:
THE MYSTERY woman smooching Bill Clinton in a photo in Edward Klein’s book “The Truth About Hilary,” is local gal Dawn Dugan, says the July/August issue of Real Philly magazine… Dugan and Clinton were introduced by then mayor [...]

Last week saw the launch of Dragonfire, a new webby zine outta Drexel U. What makes it different from every other run-of-the-mill blog? Well for one, they’ve got an interview with Noam Chomsky (he of neo-liberal hateration). For another, Ed.-in-Chief Amy Webb and audio editor Rachel Buchman (she of the WHYY/Christian Right baby mama [...]

Bring ‘em out: Jenice, baby, she’s back! Proving once again that it’s the Oscar to the Inky’s suburbanite Felix, the Daily News brings the skanky ho out of Glam so you don’t have to. Today, Lady J unleashes her “hot gals of summer” list, featuring the likes of Kelly Lee, 38, non-profit vice prez and [...]

Man oh man. Take a look at that image. Brings back the memories, doesn’t it? Why, it seems like only yesterday, a young man could find his way in this ol’ world with just a giant bag of weed, a rack of sweet Electro-Harmonix pedals and a semi-sexy grumbly mumble. Well, folks, let your sigh [...]

Regular readers will know that we’ve been following the travails of one Lord Whimsy ó†poet, essayist, chartmaker, DJ, flanuerist and current Johnny Depp obsession ó†with great enthusiasm since almost Day One here at Philebrity. Whimsy’s just shy of the actual big time now with a UK publishing deal, potential movie option, et. al., but for [...]

Today’s tale of phonecalls, back-door deals and other barnyard antics is all about Penn’s Landing, and the charmed seventh time out for developers on this lose-lose big fish of a property. Now with added Bart Blatstein! Mmm, that’s gooood patronage!
“I know Bart’s gonna be OK,” Ross was heard telling White in an April 1, 2003, [...]

>>> Dig it: Philebrity and R5 are giving away tickets to tomorrow night’s Blowfly show at Silk City. Blowfly is like the Sun Ra of hip-hop and funk. He’s black, he’s from outer space, and his entire existence is dedicated to blowing square minds. He’s also the dirtiest motherfucker in the universe. Two pairs! Going [...]

Friday:
>>> Get your Friday night Fishtown beard on with Dan Higgs, P.G. Six, Mike Wexler and Currituck County at the Garden Of The Good & Espers. Of all the recent Espers-house shows of the past few years, this one seems the most hotly-tipped since Devendra Banhart himself slipped on down and blew minds a [...]

The hoagie logos nauseate us, the just-folks tone can sometimes be a little grating, but you know what? Will Bunch just might be talking some sense here when he basically says, “F this, people. That broad deserves to to be locked up.”
…the Times’ Judy Miller has not been afflicting the comfortable. She has been protecting [...]
