The Critique


iIve decided to Critique Perez Hilton's blog.
Perez Hilton is a socialite/celebrity blogger. His 'office' is in his local cafe when he is regularly visited by the celebrities he writes about. he has in fact befriended Paris Hilton who he took his namesake off.
His blog focuses on critizing Celebrity fashion and personal lives. he doodles on most of the photos on his site to make them more humorous or point out flaws.
Perez Hilton's site feature many expensive mainstream advertisements. currently the entire color theme of his site, which is usually bright Barbie pink,, is grey to promote the excessive advertising of a Holly wood movie Cloverfield.
Perez Hilton regularly promote gay celebrities and views as he himself is gay. He must have a large gay audience as there is advertisements for gay dating companies and websites.

Perez Hilton often gives his audience the opportunity to have their own thoughts and express them on his site. Most sections feature a "what do you think" , "you like" or comments section.

I like Perez Hilton's site because it doesn't try to act like he knows all the intimate details of celebrities lives like trashy magazines do he just criticizes them which what the whole celebrity news industry is really about anyway. i respect the fact that he has become really successful which is a feat in itself but also that despite the fact he is successful the content and tone of his blog has not changed.
