Do you really believe that celebrities and media figures read DL?

I think so many of you are funny and brilliant and I love reading DL, but I think people here are delusional when they say famous people are somehow copying them.

How many people read DL? It seems like a limited audience.

Yes - and I suspect I was FFed / crypto banned by one for pointing out their hypocrisy

Shut up, Barbara.

I'm sure many thirsty wannabes read it, like the Real Housewives fraus. They're always looking themselves up online to see how fans feel about them.

And we know Andy Cohen comes here. He's even mentioned DL on WWHL.

I doubt, however, A-listers like M and G could give a shit.

I personally know a few C/D list celebrities who are on Datalounge so I’m pretty sure A and B list celebrities are too.

Lol no

I wouldn't be surprised if Fraser, Kyle, and Damo from Below Deck were lurking around here to see what the gays think of them.

I'm sure anyone currently active enough to be considered a celebrity wouldn't have time to hang out on social media, but you'd better believe that people interested in the celebs are keeping track of everything posted about them, and occasionally some items do get forwarded to the celebs and they do look at it. So I wouldn't post anything here or anywhere else that you'd be mortified for them to see.

No, not ones who are even remotely celebrities and media figures.

There have always been a handful of DL Celebrities in Their Own Minds who drift in and out of paying way too much attention whenever summoned by name from death/obscurity, but they are, for the most part, easily exhausted.

I'm 100% convinced every celebrity and media figure gets up every morning and checks DL to find out what a load of 80 year olds have to say about I Love Lucy and The Golden Girls. It's really important to tap into that demographic.

R7 Okay.

Hey, Heather Dubrow, your husband fucked another woman because your pussy's dried out!

Call the paparazzi to photograph THAT!

Absolutely. And their reps infest this place.

Every Blake Lively thread was immediately greyed-out several months ago within minutes of being posted. Her PR people were killing threads and F&F-ing people into oblivion who dared criticize her.

I made a harmless joke about a diminutive talk-show host who hates DL the other day and was immediately banned for 12 hours.

Rosie used to come here. And I’m sure there are plenty more. DL anonymity is a gift. Now, if only the technology could be updated to 2015 standards.

Ummm, you have heard of Twitter and Instagram, right?

I was watching some millennial gay stand up comics talk about their entries on LPSG. Nothing about DL as of yet though.

The gossip hounds do.

Maureen Callahan for one. She's used the phrase "I've had sufficient" at least once in a recent YouTube video on a show she calls "The Nerve" (its pretty good, actually). That's way too esoteric to be a coincidence.

I enjoyed her recent take on the Netflix "aka Charlie Sheen" doc. Many of the details that she covered are widely talked about here. Just saying...

R10 Well, now we know Kelly Dodd is on DL.

I happen to know for a fact that Barbara Bush was a regular.

I got banned about 10 minutes after posting about a certain Seattle-based narcissist and aging leather queen who's married to an advice columnist.

I imagine he searches his name, and the Mrs. variant, several times a day.

Well, we know Enty from CDAN comes here (or one of his minions) because they steal gossip from here all the time.
