The Gossip Rag: Celebrity life, photos, gossip, and news

This letter showed up on Ann Coulter’s site earlier today, but was later removed. Interestingly enough, references around the blogosphere are disappearing fast, so I’ve reproduced it below:

Dear Readers,

I’ve been participating in a charade for nearly eleven years, now. Quite frankly, I’m sick of it. You have all been a part of a sick joke that I began considering shortly after first getting on the air. At first, it was quite interesting to see how people would react when I would use twisted logic and poorly masked bigotry.

But eleven years is a long time to be living a fake life, and I can no longer tolerate this falsity. Even someone as fake as I tires out eventually.

Here’s the truth, I don’t care what people believe. Jews don’t need to be “made perfect” as I so arrogantly proclaimed to Editor & Publisher not a half week ago. I don’t even care if people are Muslim. Granted, I don’t know much about the religion or the people, but they are people. This is something that we cannot forget, they are in an abhorrent situation. These people are in need of education. Perhaps if we did not participate in causing them misery, they would not hate us so.

In fact, does it really matter whether we are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Atheist, or even Pagan? We are one nation. One. We should not let petty differences separate us, we are all American, and should act in that manner.

And with that, my precious viewers, I bid you adieu. My career as a media figurehead is over.

Signed,
Ann Coulter

P.S. - Oh, and Bill O’Reilly is also just acting.

According to Kos, AOL, Jezebel, and others, she was hacked earlier today. Aww, poor Ann Coulter. It looks like someone from the Middle East has it in for you.

The world’s most famous and loathed celeb blogger Perez Hilton screwed up on his post about Al Gore III (Al Gore’s son). The former Vice President’s son (24) was arrested for driving a blue Toyota Prius on the southbound San Diego Freeway at 100mph and having marijuana, Valium, Xanax, Vicodin and Adderall in the car. But the photo Perez defaced and posted isn’t his mugshot; this is:

Al Gore III was released after posting $20,000 bail. “He does not have a prescription for any of those drugs,” Orange County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Jim Armormino said.

Michelle Malkin has apparently annoyed enough people with a self-righteous column on music industry skin and skank that they went out and either photoshopped her or found a real photo:

While Wonkette ventures “there appears to be a picture of Malkin doing the ‘Girls Gone Wild’” we’d prefer to see the matter as a misunderstanding between her clothes, her face, and some poor victim’s body. Adobe is certainly the one to blame!

Daniel Edwards, the artist who brought us sculpture of Britney Spears giving birth, has a new trick up his sleeve:

That’s right, it’s a sculpture of Hillary Clinton in nothing but a light bra. According to Edwards, the Sculpture captures Clinton “with her head held high, a youthful spirit and a face matured by wisdom. Presented in a low cut gown, her cleavage is on display prominently portraying sexual power which some people still consider too threatening.”

The statue will be released at the Museum of Sex, NYC on August 9th. It is titled The Presidential Bust of Hillary Rodham Clinton: The First Woman President of the United States of America.
