WHY I LOVE BEING A ENTERTAINMENT BLOGGER!!
By L.T Dinwiddie
If you haven’t noticed, entertainment news-sites like PerezHilton.com, Mediatakeout.com, Sandrarose.com, and countless others (including this site) have completely refaced the way people get their entertainment information.
The apparent need for immediacy combined with society’s sensational hunger for anything celebrity. Has forged an unbreakable relationship with the public and bloggers. Millions of people across this world log onto these incredibly popular blogs to read up, criticize, or simply get one’s opinion on their favorite celebrities. And, with great reason!
While many mainstream media outlets, and print publications have a semi-obligation to their advertisers, and their over all business interests, those rules simply don’t apply to entertainment based news/gossip sites!
What has been proven time and time again is that people on the forefront of the entertainment industry, will deny a particular story or expose until one of us (bloggers) find out the real story and publish it to the masses. We’re prepared to go the extra mile while other mainstream media outlets remain apprehensive. And, that’s what makes the blogger an undeniable force in the entertainment industry.
PerezHilton.com was the first to break the news that former NSync group member Lance Bass was Gay. And, after at first denying the accusations and even going as far as having women surround him whenever he and his former lover were out in public, he later decided to come out to People magazine.
One my favorite bloggers, and personal friend—Sandra Rose was the first to report on Jay-Z’s shocking alleged “million dollar absent father” offer, to former video vixen, Shenelle Scott. And if you read any hip-hop publication on news stands currently, you’ll see her picture virtually everywhere.
Mediatakeout.com. along with the National Inquirer revealed a shocking story regarding one of America’s favorite comedians—Chris Rock and his alleged “dead beat daddy conduct” on March 29th, 2007 and in today’s Atlanta Journal-Constitution they are just now reporting on that story.
Though bloggers aren’t the most liked community as far as the entertainment industry is concerned, we are definitely the most connected as far as the people are concerned. And, that’s why I love being a blogger!
We aren’t just desired by most. We are needed by all!
