“you were working the water gun game at the hatboro carnival on monday night. i was there with my family. i played the game and almost won.”

No, sir. You did NOT. But, I am sure your family can make room for the Pretty Carnie. We all can.

A cab ride is no more than a necessity/headache and, if all goes well, imminently forgettable. You’re never quite sure dude knows where he’s going, and you overhear he’s banging his brother’s wife. Bluetooth headsets like to gossip. But you didn’t hear that from us.

There might be some singing, too, said Soberg.
“It’s really more like a variety show than than their regular performances that you’d see on game days,” Zaun said.

With the steady approach of June 1 — that’s the eviction date for the Boy Scouts of America, so due because they simply cannot admit that, yo, scouting is kind of gay, too — we here at Philebrity fantasize more and more about organizing a parade of gay ex-Scouts to march through town and up [...]

It’s a story we never get tired of: While your friends from college are living in New York, subsisting on grapefruit and selling their eggs and plotting out cheap food on Google maps like a Loman-esque midwestern family visiting “The City” on a budget, you’re in South Philly, paying rent well under the thousand dollar [...]

Northern Liberties, we worry about you sometimes, but maybe we shouldn’t: While the rest of the City suffers a real estate crunch built on the backs of flimsy mortgages, construction continues up in you at a rate that would make even the dooziest of Doozers proud. Behold:
The new development plan for Bart Blatstein’s property at [...]

Get psyched! She And Him — err, that would be Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward — will be playing the Trocadero on Friday, July 25th. Philebs has the distinct honor of throwing an afterparty in Balcony. Tickets go on sale this Friday. More details coming soon…

Howdy, stranger! If someone has sent you this link, you are the proud beneficiary of a Philebrity You-Send-Em®.

That’s where Philebrity.com comes in — we have to say totally messed-up shit to/about people every [...]

After the jump, Loren Hunt consults your stars and comes back from the cosmos with a whole handful of “Meh” and a sprinkle of “Whoa!”

Many of you of may groan to hear us say this, but here at Philebrity, we’ve always regarded Camille Paglia as one of Philly’s most notably awesome exports. Sure, she’s a lightning rod.
