Underhyped Hearts Lifehacker

Underhyped Hearts LifehackerHello friends, family, and loved ones (all mutually exclusive). I’m sure you’ve all been terribly lonely lately, what with no new Underhyped posts in ages (what a fantastic blog!), but there is news!

Not Underhyped news, really, but news nonetheless. If you’re desperate to read some blog posts by me, you’ve got a couple of choices. You can either check out my About.com site dedicated to Digital Music, or, for a limited time only, you can read posts from yours truly at Gawker’s very own Lifehacker, where I will join the crew as guest editor from this Wednesday to next Tuesday (isn’t Next Wednesday a popular band?).

I’m really looking forward to my stint with Lifehacker, and now you can, too!

Dancing with the Stars: The 25 Cent Lap Dance Edition

Dancing with the Stars
John O’Hurley beware: In continuing Underhyped’s newfound position as center of the showbusiness universe, we’re proud to announce that we’re holding auditions for the newest incarnation of Dancing with the Stars, wherein contestants dance in front of a dilapidated, thirty-year-old limousine all dirty-style outside Underhyped headquarters where, from the existential comfort of Underhyped’s dining room, we will be taping your audition with our middle-end digital camera.

If you’re still not quite sure what we’re looking for, you can check out this sample audition.

Underhyped Hollywood: Drugs for Your Showbusiness Friends

Drugs for Your Showbusiness Friends
Underhyped headquarters was recently solicited via letter by an enterprising young drug dealer looking to unload co-caine on some of Underhyped’s (many) showbusiness friends, which I’ve taken the time to transcribe for you (or click here for a larger version):

Dear XXXX,

Hi. My name is Ron XXXXXXX. I sell co-caine on Wilcox. If you would like to buy some for your showbusiness friends call me. XXX XXX XXXX.

Thx
Ron

While I doubt this is quite the same relationship that, say, Lindsay Lohan has with her dealer, it’s still nice to know that someone as insignificant as little ol’ Underhyped can still enjoy/share a little bit of that old-fashioned pen-and-ink communication with local pedalers of co-caine. By all means, keep the communication coming, Ron!
