Blender Magazine is a great magazine, in my opinionation. The Letters to the Editor can be quite funny and snarky - and every once in a while, a celebrity will write in to respond to an article (coughpatrickstumpcough).

This month's issue - October '07, with Kanye West dressed up for his first day as a Best Buy manager - has some pretty interesting letters:

"I find it curious that Rilo Kiley hottie Jenny Lewis ("Hot Report", September) wrote a whole album about pornography despite claiming that she doesn't watch the stuff. I consider myself something of a porn aficionado, so if Jenny wants someone to introduce her to some of the finer XXX titles available, I am at her service.

-- Mark D., Muncie, IN"


Jesus, we need a better spam blocker. - Ed.


"Blender, can you do me a favor and call a moratorium on mentioning Pete Wentz in your magazine? As if reading the Fall Out Boy bassist's insipid insights about life on the road in your "Collect Call From ... Fall Out Boy" story (August) wasn't bad enough, then you had to go and include him on "The Powergeek 25" list for his insipid contributions to the Internet. I really can't take much more of this guyliner-wearing buffoon!

-- Dan Plunkett, Troy, MI"


Just for that, we're commissioning Pete Wentz to write us a 5,000-word essay on insipid reader letters. - Ed.


And in the "Mommy, I'm scared..." Department, Gerard Way has apparently decided to look like John Mayer and Liza Minelli's lovechild - Idolator - Bad Hairdos Scare the Living Shit Out of Me. Here's hoping that he doesn't have the whole John Mayer O-Face going when he sings .... O_o




In conclusion: Patrick. With a side of Pete. (this was stolen from [livejournal.com profile] bexone, who is made of awesome)

Blender used to actually mention country a little bit more, which I appreciated because it was sometimes hunky Gary Allan they were mentioning. But lately, it is all rappers. That gets old real quick! Not saying they aren't individual little snowflakes, but there usually isn't a lot of memorable info I take away from reading their interviews.

The only thing I'm going to miss is that new section in the front about all the latest and greatest stuff, like singles.
