Summer is officially here, and with any luck, that means you’ll have a little more free time to spend catching up on all those books stacking up on your bedside table! Inspired by a delightful post from one of our favorite former Hills stars, the gleefully literate staff of Jezebel has decided to share its summer…
Last week, Jezebel launched and shuttered the subsite Titanic.Jezebel.com, devoted to the popular James Cameron film Titanic. This is the story of how it began.
I realized being a man at Jezebel, a feminist blog, would be tough on my first day. After arriving to work in a new outfit, holding a latte from the coffee shop where I looked forward to becoming a regular, the site’s editor-in-chief, Emma Carmichael, led me past the red-stained floor of Jezebel’s pod inside Gawker…
Jezebel got a gentle ribbing on The Simpsons this evening (along with our friends at Defamer and our casual party frenemies at Perez Hilton). I believe I speak for all of us cranky lesbos on staff when I say that this is the best day of our lives.
Hello, and welcome to Jezebel's home for anything to do with the olden days.
Today in hilarious meta-news, Jezebel has learned that our website is evidently too hot to be viewed by select U.S. government employees. A tipster tells us that the DOJ recently blocked access to Jezebel from all workstation computers, although the other Gawker Media sites — Sportsball, that one about cars, Sidepiece…
Hello! I'm your host, the internet, where the odds are never in your favor.
We've finally made it to the big time, you guys. ::wipes away tear::
Welcome to ROYGBIV, Jezebel's new spin-off blog for news, commentary, and discussion of LGBT+ topics. Jezebel has always had a tradition of covering LGBT+ topics, but for the first time there is a dedicated section of the website just for covering these issues. Given the majority North American audience, ROYGBIV will…
Anna Holmes launched Jezebel in 2007, sparking a movement of new online content for women. Its distinct blend of smarts and snark gained an immediate following that hasn't slowed down since. In 2010, Anna stepped down as editor in chief to focus on, among many things, bringing Jezebel to life in book form. The newly…
There is some serious cognitive dissonance between costume companies desire to sell costumes to women, and their understanding of what women are - their understanding of fictional women at least.
[Ed. note: The whole wingwoman sitch can be difficult to navigate. Yeah, you love your girls, but no, you aren't willing to hop up on a banquette with them every time Ri-Ri comes on. Sure, you want to help your friend meet a guy, but not just any guy. Yes, you want everyone to feel pretty, but maybe they should…
It's obvious that you're what's hot right now. Producers blowing up your phone, agents fighting over you (publicly, too; how embarrassing — for them), maître d's practically mauling themselves on strategically-placed fici (plural of ficus) to get you the best table at restaurants with the word "bungalow" in their…
Gone are the sand-in-the-face days when being considered a nerd was a bad thing. Now, it seems like every Hollywood actor desperate for a career makeover is hiking up his pants, pulling on a cardigan, and ditching his contacts for a set of plastic frames — because nothing says, "Hire me for your massive comic book…
Though the inimitable Dorothy Parker once claimed, "Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses," times, they have changed. These days there is nary a fella out there who would balk at putting the moves on some bespectacled nerd-babe. In fact, it's pretty much safe to safe to say, that being "adorkable" is now…
Be still, hearts of America. The perennial bad-boy prince of Beverly Hills has been busy at a studio in Los Angeles. No, he's not doing voicework for an animated version of a certain '90s primetime soap (wish!). He recorded a holiday gift that money can't buy from AT&T: a customizable video message accompanied by…
Everyone likes ripping open presents around this time of year. But picking out a friend's glasses that they wear on their face every day is a daunting task. Warby Parker knows this, and is offering gift cards in denominations of $50, $95, $145 and $195 — and all holiday gift cards will arrive at your lucky pal's door…
Girls, Lena Dunham's little corner of the big old world became a must-watch situation for HBO earlier this year. Girls came, girls went, girls lost their pants and lost their shit. The adventures of Hannah, Jessa, Marnie, and Shoshanna (and their various bosses, parents, hookups, husbands, gynecologists, and the like)…
