The next Gawker editor?

I got to write Names and Faces for the Post again, which is always exciting. For just one day, I become an expert on Britney and LiLo and Brangelina and other people who I usually try to ignore. But writing about celebrities is somehow much more entertaining than reading about them, so when it’s my turn to take a swing at Hollywood starlets, I’m all over it.

No, I don’t think you’ll see me writing gossip full-time, and I’m certainly not moving to Gawker any time soon. (The NY Times magazine cover this week is by Emily Gould, former Gawker editor, and is a fantastic read, if you haven’t seen it already.) But ask me about how much water Celine Dion’s property in Florida uses, or how much Jose Canseco wants to pay someone to box him–two items that were cut for lack of space–and I’ve got you covered.
