Interview With Celeb Gossip's Mr. Holy Moly!
Technorati caught up with the UK's premier celeb gossip site HolyMoly.com and we spoke with Mr. Holy Moly himself.
Mr. Holy Moly started the site in 2002 after cutting his teeth as a moderator for PopBitch. HM saw the opportunities being squandered and set out on his own to create a one-stop destination for celeb scoops, candid shots (a plethora of pics) with commentary every bit as cutting as Gawker, but cheekier.
Mr. Holy Moly, who protects his secret identity by wearing a luchador's mask, explained how he created the site and slowly built it to become one of the most popular gossip sites on the web. With a team of researchers, writers and spies, HolyMoly.com works feverishly to bring us the latest on our favorite celeb trainwrecks, all with a decidedly British bent.
Listen in as we discuss the minutia of celeb blogging, why Perez Hilton's a wanker, how Holy Moly broke the Madonna/Guy Ritchie divorce 4 months before anyone else, the cyclical nature of celebrity meltdowns and the cross-pollination of popular culture across the pond. Mr. HM also hints at something big coming down the pipeline for HolyMoly.com.
