TMZ's Dark Side

Reader Comments

• 61. Awww...I didn't make it to the finals. :( Ah well. I was happy just to be chosen as a finalist. Thanks TMZ! I also want to thank those who had voted for me Isriah #26. It meant a lot. I laughed at the one poster (Sorry I have forgotten his name, but mentioned that it looked like I was searching for my contacts in the grass. I must have laughed for about 5 minutes! Ha Ha.)Interesting tidbit about the photo is it was actually raining when it was taken! I also had a rose that I had posed with in other photos and as a thank you to those resting peacefully in that cementary I had left the rose in the center of the place for them all as a "Thank you." Congrats to all of the finalists and to the final 5! Ahh, so hard to chose a favorite. My vote however is for number 6 Natasha. I have a thing for wings. Heh. Good luck to everyone of you though! I bet the Manson show is going to rock!

• 68. And yes, Mr. Warner is not the most handsome guy in the world without makeup, for goodness sakes, you should see him with a cold ( and believe me--when he tours he used to always get sick), he looks like a gnome with a big red inflamed face that glows like a light bulb, and his teeth are scarey too, but when you talk to him, even when he looks like a troll with swine flu, it doesn't really matter because his personality is so strong, its what he says that makes people like him. Believe it or not, the guy is charismatic. He is a PR agents nightmare, but thats for other reasons not to discuss here. So please see that goth is about beauty. You could also say something about sublimating pain into expression, or just psycho babble, but really its pretty pictures. Okay, let the big girls win, because everyone knows that goth girls that are prettiest and skinniest and big boobed get plenty of attention on thier own without free manson tickets.

• 70. Its a certain something that people are going through and after a while you learn that most goth folks are extremely nice, kind, and polite. I was VERY surprised. I know, know, what did you expect, mopey coffee drinkers? Well the people that I worked with in the "dark" side of techno and other music were a heck of a lot more pleasant than the folks in more "mainstream pop" and "country". I swear theres nothing meaner than drunk rednecks, thrashers, and 80's cheeseball metal fans waiting for a moment to catch a glimpse of the performers. I admit, I was a tough sell, because goths to me used to be wierd folks that did theater and smoked cloves and were annoying at the bookstore, till I was exposed and saw that the goth people aren't that bad in the grand scheme of PR.

• 71. As someone who used to do PR in this kind of music, I can say that this whole goth thing is about beauty. Please see that. Its hard to be ugly when you have 17 layers of ben nye or max factor or krylan foundation on sealed with spray on adhesive. Its hard to be ugly with 900 pounds of eyeliner and mascara and false eyelashes. The people I saw when I worked in this industry were very humorous to me--quite laughable. I am sorry, a trip to party city or HOT TOPIC does not make you even remotely "goth" or dark. Its more about beauty on the outside and morose edgar alan poe like whimsy on the inside.
