I'd rather have a dog fart in my face, than see you or your "shitty" lineup. In a year or two (mark my words) you'll regret pimping yourself out all over this blog. I for one have been visiting less and less because of your shameless self promotion. 12 minutes and counting, fatty.

I think you're party is going to rank pretty far down in comparison to some of the others. I think the kind of people your party will appeal to are about 5 years to young to get in.

64

Better than the SXSW lineup? Bigger than ACL? You are an idiot. You will have the 9th best lineup in AUSTIN this year. Not anything close to the "best lineup in Texas". Fun, Fun, Funfest will have had a 10 times better lineup than you and thats one of the smallest in Austin (not to mention Texas). You are so full of yourself its ridiculous. Your like a bad parody of a gay gossip blogger.

You shouldn't accept sponsorship from fiji water….

It's Easier For You To Drink Fiji Water Than It Is For Most People From Fiji

And in Fiji, a state-of-the-art factory spins out more than a million bottles a day of the hippest bottled water on the U.S. market today, while more than half the people in Fiji do not have safe, reliable drinking water. Which means it is easier for the typical American in Beverly Hills or Baltimore to get a drink of safe, pure, refreshing Fiji water than it is for most people in Fiji.

Re: Melissa – Um, TCU has nothing on UT, and Ft. Worth (NOT Dallas, if youre talking about TCU) has NOTHING on Austin! Hook 'em, baby!

Your hubris never ceases to amaze me, Perez. Please stick to blogging on celebrities. It's amazing how badly SXSW has fallen off in the last couple of years thanks to outside commercial interests and the fact that Perez Hilton, somebody who has absolutely no business being in Austin, is hosting a party there is not surprising in the least anymore.

Oh, and for the record, Perez. The Mad Decent party is going to destroy all else. That line-up is stacked. I look forward to reading about some of the artists performing at this party on your blog in 2010 when you "break" them.

Criss Angel Responds To Recording Of Altercation! Says Producer Provoked Him!

There are two sides to every story! Here's his!

In light of the audio recording released yesterday that featured Criss Angel threatening to knock out one of his producers, the illusionist's attorney, Ken Woloson, has released the following statement:

"Criss Angel was in the process of firing Joe Safuto on Wednesday when Safuto became abusive and Criss asked him to leave. Criss decided to fire Safuto in response to repeated complaints from co-workers and other magicians about Safuto's abusive and violent behavior and general ineptitude. Witnesses have attested that there was no physical contact and that Safuto very clearly was the antagonist. The audio released to the media is a snippet of a much longer conversation. We are exploring legal action against Mr. Safuto, including for his defamatory and illegal conduct."

Ouch! Sounds like he means business!

Give the clip a listen again (above)!

It DOES certainly sound like Angel was provoked! But enough to respond like he does?

What do U think?? Who's really at fault here??
