Every week, residents join <a href="http://www.leoniesmith.com/Welcome/PaisleyBeebeandLeonieSmithonSecondLife.html">Paisley Beebe</a> to watch her talk show, <a href="http://www.slcn.tv/tonight-live-paisley-beebe">Tonight Live</a>. Her previous guests have included sean Voss, Celebrity Trollop, Cylindrian Rutabaga, Filthy Fluno, TheDiva Rockin, and Torley Linden!<br /><br />Last week, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ys4m6_Gti9w">Paisley interviewed Beyers Sellers</a>, otherwise known as <a href="http://www.arts.cornell.edu/econ/faculty/bloomfield.html">Robert Bloomfield</a>, who also has a weekly show on SLCN called <a href="http://www.slcn.tv/programs/metanomics">Metanomics</a>. They discuss why some have called his program "Pretend TV" and also why he started out in <span style="font-style: italic;">SL</span> as a woman.

There's the girl who blinks from head to toe, or the guy whose dollar sign neck chain lights up the entire room. Then there's the girl on the right, whose entire face has been obscured by her Rudolph nose.<br /><br />Celebrity Trollop, of <a href="http://blog.secondstyle.com">Second Style Fashionista</a>, recently <a href="http://blog.secondstyle.com/2007/11/die-bling-die.html">polled her readers</a> to find out their stance on bling. At this time, 153 residents have participated, with 64% totally hating bling, 27% merely disliking it, 7% liking it, and 2% totally loving it. Comments on the post include expressed frustration at attempting to remove bling scripts and complaints about the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/linden-lab/">Linden Lab</a>-endorsed jewelry line, <a href="http://www.secondlifeinsider.com/2007/06/28/first-bling-no-harm-get-your-designer-knockoffs-here/">First Bling</a>.<br /><br />In order to combat this epidemic, Celebrity has taken a freebie bling script, originally written by Lyra Walcott, and modified it to be more tolerable. By default, her script has bling set to off, and it is menu driven. She's offering it full permission on <a href="http://shop.onrez.com/item/409470">OnRez</a>.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2007/11/10/second-life-fashionistas-declare-war-on-bling/">Second Life fashionistas declare war on bling</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Sat, 10 Nov 2007 13:00:00 EST.
