The moblog of Katie Lee. This is the moblog I set up for an article I wrote for the Indy on Sunday. I liked it so much I decided to stay!
I'm co-founder of www.shinymedia.com, a lovely blog publishing type company.
she's a writer on loads of magazines...
she pretends to smoke expensive cigars and prefers binge drinking and shopping to both sex and food (Observer Food Monthly, 12 November 2005). And yes, she is one of the most beautiful women I know of!
She may be attractive but I can't say I'm a fan of her columns. Unless I'm missing an important part of her oeuvre it's just that vaguely sycophantic so-called-lifestyle stuff that I find quite empty.
Namechecking "exclusive" bars or dress designers (as appropriate) to appear cool.... It's not journalism and it's not entertaining, so what is it?
I bet she's a good person to go to the pub with though - if she is an expert on cocktails....
Sorry, me, NLI ^^
Angus above, at least log in if you're going to slate someone. Anonymous vitriol is just so last season....
Well, since I'm now doing some work for her I'm guessing my opinion might seem a little biased! But I can honestly say she's utterly lovely and a very good laugh. I would have kept quiet if not, I promise!
I see your point ShinyKatie - it is a general point about a certain sort of biographical style journalism. PV isn't the only one who writes this sort of stuff....
I liked your Moblog feature by the way (saw it online, not in the mag unfortunately so I didn't get the imagewall effect in print). The bit about cats and food made me laugh as I'd never noticed the food fetish....
The video you're refering to is called "bush" by Fat Boy Slim I believe....I've never read any of her columns so I can't comment on her journalism, she's pertty though.
It's the legs that does it for me...
