Perez Hilton on playing Paul Ryan: 'I do a few push-ups'

Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., isn't the only one channeling Paul Ryan these days.

Gossip blogger and TV personality Perez Hilton will take on the vice presidential nominee in his debut this weekend in NEWSical, the off-Broadway musical that features a revolving cast of performers skewering the news and the people in it.

"I get to play myself, I get to play some fictional characters and I also play some real-life people, and one of those people that I play is Paul Ryan," he told USA TODAY in an interview at Rock the Vote's party at the Democratic National Convention. Hilton said he channels Ryan this way: "I have a really good wig. I do a few push-ups and I run a marathon in 90 seconds backstage."

Perez Hilton: 'Radio is key to breaking in America'

The last few weeks have seen U.S. celebrity blogger/pop music advocate extraordinaire Perez Hilton descend on the UK music scene.

Hilton’s been papped at Wireless, Madonna, The Gossip as well as his own One Night in…London show on Friday July 13 which saw the likes of Cher Lloyd, The Wanted and Backstreet Boys grace the stage at The Electric in Brixton.

Money raised from tickets for the One Night In… gig went to charity the Brit School Trust, a cause Hilton backs in its entirety: “Without The Brit School there would be no Adele there would have been no Amy Winehouse.

“A lot of young people probably don’t even pursue their dreams because they think they can’t or their told they are not good enough or they don’t know how, so the Trust is invaluable.“

Perez Hilton: 'Russell Brand Is Using Katy Perry For Publicity'

The comedian's new TV show Brand X hasn't been well received in the US so far and Perez believes that his accidental joke about Katy giving him “a***-ache” for the last year was a “smart” move.
Asked about the comment Perez told Closer magazine: "No it doesn't annoy me, I think he's being smart.
He's using her for publicity for his show.It's a good tactic.”

Perez Hilton sued for$500,000 for slandering Angelina Jolie's ring designer

Perez Hilton, an American blogger and television personality, is sued for 500,000 dollars for slandering Robert Procop, Angelina Jolie’s engagement ring designer, according to the Wrap Tuesday.
Hilton posted on his Coco Perez offshoot site that a customer called Roy Allenstein accused Procop of fraud, for he found that the diamond necklace purchased from Procop was only 17.62 carats instead of supposedly being 25.5 carats.
And Allenstein was awarded damages of 89,000 dollars, he added.
But Procop’s attorney said no judgment was rendered against his client, and there was no trial that alleged Procop defrauded a customer.
The suit was filed Wednesday in Los Angeles. “The statements that Plaintiff was ‘guilty’ of fraud in connection with his jewelry business and that a court had awarded a judgment against him for that fraud is libelous on its face,” it reads. “Those statements expose Plaintiff to hatred, contempt, ridicule and obloquy and they naturally have a tendency to injure Plaintiff in his occupation as a jeweler and jewelry designer.”
Procop is now suing Hilton for damages totaling over 500,000 dollar to “punish and deter defendant from engaging in such conduct in the future.”

Perez Hilton shows off shocking weight loss

There aren't enough emoticons and MS Paint arrows to express the buzz that Perez Hilton incited as he walked the red carpet at the NewNowNext Awards Thursday.
The 34-year-old celebrity blogger showed up to the awards show sans shirt, donning a bullet-print blazer, tight pants and a smirk while flaunting his newly fit body.
Perez, who is best known for his frumpy physique and childish commentary on celebrity photos, told the Huffington Post that his six-pack and trim figure is the result of lots of diet and exercise.

Perez Hilton: The Moment I Knew I Was Gay (VIDEO)

Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton has joined the ranks of contributors to our exciting new project, "The Moment I Knew."
In the new clip, Perez tells us about the life-defining moment which made him realize he was gay. "The moment I knew was around the age of six," Perez, who HuffPost Latino Voices has named one of the top gay Latino activists, explains. "While most little boys played sports and things like that...at the age of six, I thought it was fun to roll around naked in the dirt with the boy who lived next door."
While the experience may sound naughty, Perez stresses that the experience "was absolutely innocent," but made him realize he "was not like other boys" at an early age.
But this project won't stop with Perez. Here on HuffPost Gay Voices we've suggested that you tell us about "The Moment I Knew I Was Gay / Lesbian / Bi / Transgender / Queer / Gender-Nonconforming / Etc..."

Gov. O'Malley Gets Props from Celeb Blogger Perez Hilton

The self-proclaimed "queen of all media" praised the governor's stance on same-sex marriage in Maryland.

Count celebrity blogger Perez Hilton among Gov. Martin O'Malley's newest supporters.
The self-proclaimed "queen of all media," most popular for scathing commentary on Hollywood darlings, had nothing but praise for O'Malley's support of same-sex marriage in Maryland.
Hilton wrote in a Feb. 24 post:
Way to go, "MARRY-LAND!!"
The beautiful state just passed their marriage equality bill, getting them one step closer to becoming the 8th state to get it right and welcome same-sex marriage legalization!!!
Hilton couldn't stop gushing about O'Malley, calling him a "wonderful man" and (probably jokingly) writing that he's super-interested in visiting Maryland's Chesapeake Bay now.

Perez Hilton sends 'open letter' asking Simon Cowell for X Factor job

Forget Cheryl Cole. Forget Katy Perry. The celebrity blogger has recorded a video stating why he’s the perfect choice for the X Factor judging panel.

You have to admire Perez Hilton. It takes some guts to tell Simon Cowell how to do his job, but that’s exactly what the celebrity blogger has done in his latest video.

Perez has recorded an ‘open letter’ to Mr Cowell stating all the reasons why he should be the next X Factor judge.

Fresh from the announcement that Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul have been dropped, and that Steve Jones will no longer present the X Factor US, Perez has put himself forward for the position – and he’s got some pretty valid reasons as to why he would be perfect for the show.

WWE Raw Preview: Tag Title Re-Match, Perez Hilton To Appear

Tonight’s WWE Raw SuperShow takes place from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California and a few matches/segments have been announced.
WWE today booked a rematch for the WWE Tag Team Titles where new champions Primo & Epico will defend their belts against Air Boom (Evan Bourne & Kofi Kingston). At a house show last night the WWE made the decision to switch the titles and with a rematch booked for tonight’s show, it does make you wonder why they couldn’t have just gone with the title change tonight on television instead.
Announced on last week’s RAW was a United States Title defence for Zack Ryder against Jack Swagger but with Ryder’s “injury” angle at the hands of Kane that has been put in doubt. Plus an angle out of John Laurinaitis declaring that CM Punk shouldn’t have won his match against Jack Swagger last week on RAW (which was actually a genuine mistake by the referee but is being played into an angle) is expected to emerge.
Brodus Clay and Chris Jericho will most likely get more air time.
