We Were Trying To Keep This A Secret

Filed under: Personally Perez

We're working on this very cool new thing, which we weren't quite ready to announce yet.

But, The New York Times has just written THIS ARTICLE about it.

Let's hope it doesn't jinx things. It's not a done deal yet!

But, we're very very excited about the possibility.

It will happen. It will!

PEREZ, YOU JUST HAVE AN EAR FOR GAY DANCE PARTY MUSIC…. WHICH IS MY FAVORITE KIND!!!!! I DO THINK PEREZ CAN TELL WHETHER OR NOT A SINGER OR GROUP WILL MAKE IT AND HAVE SUCCESS, BUT TO BE PAYING HIM THAT MUCH MONEY JUST FOR HIS OPINION, I BELIEVE, IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!!!! I DO NOT BELIEVE HE DESERVES IT AS MUCH AS I LOVE HIM…SORRY!!!!

Wow…record labels really are desperate. I do think it's a good idea though. If you can really promote the artist on your site, hopefully people will buy there music. Guess we'll see! Good luck.

you go girl!
Vegan Val says – reply to this

49

hmmm… the music industry is in a sorry state now, but this deal would be very good for you. I think the industry needs you more than you need them. Make sure $100,000 is enough for your services. You offer exposure money can't buy. Make sure they all realize how lucky they are to get your services.

Love ya, Perez!

joeyjojo says – reply to this

67

it WONT happen, because KARMA is a real thing, and you are a HORRIBLE human being. U will only get what you deserve, Perez. U have caused so much pain to so many people, and you WILL get it back, somehow, someway.

perez has jumped the shark
linzryanz says – reply to this

72

Smart move. Seriously innovative way to get the music business back into the business.
kate says – reply to this

73

you would get 50% of the profit? what? shouldn't you maybe get 10 or 15%? The rest should actually go to the artists putting out the music. It's a shame that you are so greedy and soon will become like all these other mega moguls who use artists to get rich and leave them with nothing.

and for another thing? you get paid tons of money to talk crap about people. yes they are in the spotlight but it truly bothers me when you say an actress or actor is too skinny or too fat, because look in the mirror perez, you aint skinny. and you say these people are celebrities and should take it. well apparently you are too and you have the worst sense of style i have ever seen and a nasty attitude. but i believe in karma so maybe you should start being more respectful.
