It's within the realm of possibility that it could happen within minutes. The amount of time that this takes varies considerably. We'd just rather hear a real person's candid take on his or her encounter with Mike Meyers and his hockey stick or how shiny Julianne Moore's hair was during her twelve millionth trip to Da Silvano.Īnyway, at some point after you send an email about a sighting to tips, we read it and spend a split second trying to determine whether it's fake and publicisty-sounding before forwarding it on to the stalker map interns, who then post it to the map. However, part of what differentiates the sightings featured on the Gawker Stalker map from the sightings reported in celebrity newsweeklies and daily gossip columns is that we try not to post those publicist-penned "sightings." It's not that we have anything against publicists. Which makes sense! Celebrities and restaurants, and the people who interview them on late night T.V., all make money by remaining in the public eye. Gawker Stalker sightings are sent to by you, the Gawker reader, and also, often, by celebrities' and restaurants' publicists. So let's have a refresher course-it's been a while! Sightings are sent in by readers and posted to our Gawker Stalker Map. Daily Gawker Stalker: When Isn't Jimmy Kimmel Visibly Intoxicated? It's weird how people who are professionally "funny" often have no sense of humor! Anyway, Kimmel was so weirdly peeved that he told Emily that she was going to hell, cut her off midsentence all O'Reilly-style a bunch of times, and discussed the likelihood that "Emily's web site" would soon be shut down by the lawyers of angry celebrities. He had a bone to pick with Gawker editor Emily Gould-apparently, a sighting had appeared on our Gawker Stalker map last June which seemed to catch the former Man Show host (who, let's remember, rose to fame on a show that featured him drinking beer throughout) "visibly drunk and talking loud." How unethical of Gawker to defame Kimmel's character by publishing this sighting without editing or fact-checking it, or even asking Kimmel's publicist for the requisite heartfelt denial! At first Emily thought that Kimmel was kidding about being so upset. It was a very special episode about how the paparazzi and the media make the lives of celebrities just so difficult. On Friday night, Jimmy Kimmel guest-hosted Larry King Live on CNN.
