Another site is copying our posts and pictures word for word. Agent Bedhead told me about them a while ago, and I should have listened to her. The plaguarizing site is called PopStarShow.com and they’re also using posts and pictures from Wampoon, Top Music Blog, and other sites.
They site the “source” at the end without a link, but the content is misleading and someone e-mailed me asking if Celebitchy is stealing posts from them. Celebitchy is all original content except for ocassional posts also seen on our contributing writers’ blogs as noted and credited.
There are also articles on that site with the “source” listed as Celebitchy that we didn’t even write, so they’re confused about who they’re cutting and pasting from.
Again, the plaguarizing site is called PopStarShow.

As a writer, I hate plagiarists with a passion. What can I do to help?
(Also, Angelina has really got to get rid of that guy. He’s absolute hell on her image.)
Heh. That site really pisses me off too!
There is a new WP plugin that I’ve just installed:
http://redalt.com/Resources/Plugins/AntiLeech
It’s supposed to create dummy content for splog harvesters, but it’s hard to tell if it’s working or not. Perhaps in a few weeks, I’ll have a better indication, but my stuff wasn’t getting stolen nearly as often as this “popstarshow” blog has taken yours.
I will install that plugin, thanks so much agent. I’m not sure how it works but it doesn’t seem like it interferes with the feeds or anything so I’ll have to see.
I should have followed your advice to get that guy earlier and I was kind of hoping that it would go away. That pisses me off so much.
I don’t mind when people use the feeds and clearly credit celebitchy.
It seems like this person is manually copying and pasting the posts because they republish the pictures under their own photobucket account.
They do accept comments, not that I’m encouraging anyone. I’m not sure how I want to deal with it, just that they should be put on notice that it’s not ok.
Looks like the page took the hint and has since credited you with the ‘Angelina Looking Studious’ Post. Hopefully they will continue to give credit where credit is due!
This has nothing to do with anything but I just gotta say this…I am breaking down, I am depressed and I can’t handle this. This hapens to me every so often I just wake up one day and decide…Ive had it, 9mm looks good sometimes too. It just hits me out of no where….
Hi Marines, I e-mailed you at the address you use to comment. Let me know if you did not get it by emailing me ar info at celebitchy.com and I will get back to you.
Marines All the Way–if anyone has a great reason to break down, it’s you. You’re under a ton of stress, work, morale is low–I feel for you. I really do. I hope you know how much we really DO appreciate your service to our country. And it comes at such a high price. I can’t say that I understand or know what you’re going through because I’m not you. I’m not even going to try to give suggeestions on how to deal with it cause let’s face it, I don’t have a clue. But I wanted to say that each and every day you are a hero. Please don’t give up and give in. We need men like you in the marines for the rest of us wimps back home.
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. (((Hugs)))
What Action said sums it up for me. I hope that you’ll get through your difficult times.
Marines all the way – Do you have children, a wife, parents, siblings, friends who love you? Get out their pictures and take a good look before you pull that 9mm out and think about what this will do to them. Now get off your ass and go get some help!
You’re not the only person alone in the world who needs counseling and/or medication. Zoloft and counseling has improved my life greatly. I’m still a fucking nutbar but at least I’m a functioning fucking nutbar who can now say that I enjoy daily life!
Marines all the way – Are you stateside because if you’re not, I guess it would be hard to get off your ass and get some help if you are stuck in a sand dune in the middle east (obviously). I apologize because I didn’t think about that in my earlier post. Hope you are stateside.
Yeah, people I’m okay. It’s just we had a memorial…again and well, supressed emotions blew up on me I guess because it just hit me out of no where, I don’t know what else to say? I’m still here…..hi? I don’t have kids or a family, maybe one day I’ll meet the right one to start a family…yeah…
Yeah I’m not state side … I havent been in years.
You must be a long termer. I did my stint and got out. I was a navy nurse. You may call me Lt. Poor Boopie – LOL! Hang in there
Marines, please don’t give up. If it’s any reconciliation to you, even people with family and kids have those thoughts sometimes, it’s entirely normal to feel that way when you are depressed. But remember this, while it’s normal to have these kinds of thoughts, it takes strength not to act upon them. I pray you get the strength to make it through this difficult time in your life. There’s no shame in seeking help from a Psychiatrist either, drugs like Zoloft and Wellbutrin can be a heaven sent when you’re struggling with your emotions (trust me, I’ve been there with post-partum depression.)
Also, regarding the plagiarism on Celebitchy, how lame is that? I can’t believe someone would stoop so low and spend their free time copying someone else’s work. Let me know what I can do to help stop it.
You guys are the best, you really are.
keep up the good work. celebitchy is quickly becoming one of my favorite internet pit-stops. your content is fresh & the site layout is fetching.
