I found her site very awkward. There's a weird hanging thing that shows up when I try to scroll down that obscures the top third of the screen.

EW ran an amusing take on Preserve. My favorite quote is: Blake does seem nice and harmless, though. Also, I would be happy if she starts carrying more Cochon Butcher products. Their relishes are delicious, and I have a jar of the mustard Preserve sells in my fridge right now.

"Perpetual" life? Is she immortal?

Okay, I've read some of the writing. Oh God. If it was deliberate satire, I'd be LOLing. But Lively is probably serious as a heart attack and is surrounded by sycophants telling her how brilliant and deep she is, so that makes me kind of sad.
Oh, who am I kidding? I'm LOLing either way. I mean, just read this shit (emphasis mine):
Please, celebrity wannabe writers. No matter how brilliant you think your writing is, you need an editor. Desperately.
Better yet, forget the editor. It's so much funnier this way. You people are SO lucky that you're pretty.

This is from her Vogue story: I'm sure regular people have that too, but it also seems very celebrity-like. Have your entourage laugh at everything you say.

See, now I read through that whole BBQ-as-medieval-times thing and thought she didn't write it, but she had one of her people do it and probably thought it was good, which in a way is worse. That totally sounds like a Gen Y person who doesn't know much about medieval history but thinks they're a writer. Something about it sounds really "writer-y" (and not in a good way). It sounds like it was written by a Game of Thrones fan with a boner for medieval times. So maybe she did write it.

This sounds like Courtney Stodden wrote it.

Winter Rose didn't write prose as purple as that.

On a superficial note, I saw her shampoo commercial this afternoon and her voice bugs the shite out of me.
