What Parents Need to Know
About CocoPerez
Parents need to know that Perez Hilton's new fashion and celeb site -- targeted at twentysomething women -- is a lot tamer than his original blog. There's still a lot of snarking about how stars look and dress, but it's not quite as relentless or hateful. Perez also tones down the language and sexual content, and users can't comment on posts, so safety isn't an issue.

Families Can Talk About
Families can talk about images of celebs and models in fashion magazines. CocoPerez criticizes Self magazine for heavily airbrushing a photo of Kelly Clarkson, saying that altering images makes women compare themselves to an unattainable standard. What do you think about airbrushing? Is it hypocritical for CocoPerez to call out celebs for being too thin, too "skanky," etc.?
- Families can talk about our obsession with celebrities. How have blogs changed the way we talk about celebs? What's the appeal of sites that cover stars' fashion flops, failed relationships, or run-ins with the law?
