I started blogging as a hobby, not really thinking anyone would read my site, just my friends.

I love music and I love musicians. I separate them. I'm a big fan of Lily Allen's music, but I'm not a fan of her personality. I differentiate the two.

I love music that has good catchy choruses and fits into many different genres. ... I like real artists, that write their own material and are great performers.

I was one of the first to use the online medium as a way to talk about celebrity news in as close to real time as possible. ... I was lucky to be one of the first. I also worked hard, and put in the hours - probably 16 to 17 a day.

Im not a celebrity. I dont take myself too seriously. I know where I stand in the food chain. And no matter how much of an insider I ever become or am, Ill still always be an outsider.

Thankfully, readers send a lot of stuff. They see stories in their local newspaper. Or friends of mine email me, what they heard or saw. ... I'm very plugged in

It's fun to challenge yourself and take advantage of all the opportunities that present themselves.
