  • JT Leroy is on the cover of the new Paris Review
    Or rather, the girl who posed as JT Leroy is on the cover. It’s a picture of Laura Albert, age 8, and her t-shirt says, “I Want To Be Me!” [Via]
  • Live: Girl Talk / Professor Murder
    New show review on P4k.
  • ohnotheydidnt: LONELYGIRL15’S IDENTITY REVEALED!!!
    More Lonelygirl15 news–people have found the real myspace site of the actress who plays “Bree.” [Via]
  • What News Corp doesn’t want you to know about MySpace: Condensed edition
    “After News Corp. threatened to sue his publisher if they published his exposé on MySpace and its poster boy Tom Anderson (pictured), journalism student Trent Lapinski sold his story to Valleywag.”
  • OOIOO: “UMA”
    My OOIOO track review from last week. I like this one. Weingarten likes how Roque Strew also drops a Gwen/Hollaback reference.

    I'v been watching a lot of Battlestar Galactica. And soon after I started watching I started thinking I really like the dude who plays Felix Gaeta. Then I started thinking. It would be awesome to meet him. Later: “I bet I could meet him at like, some sort of event. Next thing I know I'm looking up sci-fi conventions featuring Galactica panels and photo sessions.

    New pieces: rollingstone.com and Pitchfork

    I’m writing again! I had a bit of a break because I was employed by publications that didn’t want me doing music writing for other places, which was a bummer. But that’s a common part of full-time staff life. Anyway, I wrote my first little bits for

    I’m writing again! I had a bit of a break because I was employed by publications that didn’t want me doing music writing for other places, which was a bummer.
