Dear Gossips,

A quick note on blog schedule first: it’ll be a very, very light day today and I will not be posting on Monday. It’s the last long weekend of the summer and before it all blows up next week -- the VMAs, NY Fashion Week, and TIFF! -- I need to pre-fuel.

Please know however that if anything major breaks, I’ll be back here with full analysis. Otherwise, I’m jamming out today mid-morning and back on Tuesday super early. Sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for understanding.

As you know, I am afraid of celebrities tweeting. Tom Hiddleston is a good example. Click here for the background. It’s too close. The closeness draws too much crazy. Why are celebrities engaging fans on Twitter? Why is LeAnn Rimes fighting with fan-haters on Twitter? Why is she even replying to her Twitter messages? Yes, those people are f-cked. But it’s also f-cked for a famous person to be calling up a fan-hater on the phone for a shouting match, OH MY GOD. This is conduct unbecoming a proper celebrity. And I wish there were actual laws for this. That violation of these laws could result in having the celebrity’s celebrity status revoked. Celebrity needs a Governing Body.

Have a great weekend!

Yours in gossip,

Lainey
