Decor Demon, HGTV & Why We Should All Give A Shit
Ok, so you know how "Bloggers are Here!?" Well, I don't wanna jump the gun or anything, but it *seems* like HGTV is kinda gettin that memo. Crazy, right??
I mean, first they choose Emily as the winner of Design Star and give her that kickass new show Secrets From A Stylist, and now they just announced that none other than DECOR DEMON will be blahgging blogging for them every week on their Design Happens blog. E-V-E-R-Y week, ppl. ZOMGZ!
And last week, while Nate Berkus was all busy ignoring bloggers, not asking bloggers for any of their feedback, not reading any design blogs and then pretending that he did, HGTV was busy planning a lunch JUST FOR DESIGN BLOGGERS. I wasn't there, but allegedly they asked people questions! And took note of opinions! And read our stuff all the time! I mean, who knows what any of it really means, but still: I'm givin credit where credit is due, and those HGTV btchz deserve some.
But here's the thing: since they're telling us that they give a shit what we think, and it *seems* like they're making efforts to produce content and shows that do a better job of speaking to us, its only fair that we speak our asses up and let em know if they're fucking shit up or doing a good job, right?
RIGHT.
So click on over to that post about my hot, gay BF and tell em what you think about that (also, step off cause he's MINEZ). Then go read a bunch of great recaps about what went down last week at the Bloggers lunch. Here are some faves:
- Here's a slideshow of all the hot grlz-n-dudez who were there (@hgtv)
- HGTV and Me, Maison Decor (@MaisonDecor)
- Blogger Payoff, Sketch42 Blog (@sketch42blog)
- Mr. Bazaar Goes To NYC, Bright.Bazaar (@will_uk)
- (this one has a lot about Nate, but there's lunch scoop in there too!) Nate Day 9/21: My Story, Home to Three Duncan Boys (@L_Duncan)
- The Moggit Girls didn't do a recap, but they were there. So go click on their blog anyway, cause I said so and cause its fun-nay (@moggitgirls)
So, yeah anyway. Moral of the story: SPEAK THE HELL UP! And then hopefully HGTV and others will keep listenin to our whiny asses (ok, MY whiny ass...I'm sure yours is sweet. And hot).
