Thanks, Perez!

perez_hilton.jpgDue to illness, Ida Maria had to drop off the bill of Monday’s Perez Hilton Presents concert at the Fine Line, but Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head (who opened for Lily Allen at First Ave) has been added to the bill and all the other bands including headliner Ladyhawke are still going to perform — for free now! The publicist says Perez himself is even footing the bill for the show. Gosh, what a sweet guy. To get in, all you have to do is say, “I’m a friend of Perez,” at the door. Of course that’s the catch.

Gawd that dude is annoying in every way - did you HAVE to make us look at his picture?! He is a sorry reminder of the vapid rancid underbelly the lurks within our pop culture. I could never say what it takes to get in the door free…..unless maybe Wilco or Radiohead was playing. But, then, they never would!

Actually, whatever you think of Perez’s blog or the guy himself… anybody remember my attempt to converse with him during SXSW? Was a total drip … I have to say he has gotten behind some pretty great acts and actually done them some good, from these bands here to Solange Knowles (seriously). Lady Gaga is the glaring exception, of course.
