    Maybe the hispanic douche bag of the year.

  2. ,,,, says:

    It’s official: There is NO GOD!

    What a vile, pitiful man. And really, you give an award to someone used f@g as a derogatory term?! I guess it’s better to not be Hispanic of the Year if this is the kind of person they give it to.

  3. wow says:

    He’s definitely not my Hispanic of the Year. Yuck.

  4. EMV says:

    Hispanic of the year? I think Hispanic magazine needs to re evaluate their sanity.Perez in the antithesis of everything award worthy unless it is a negative and douchy award.

  5. JustMe says:

    Surely, this is a joke.

  6. lucy2 says:

    How could this be anything BUT a joke? I hope.

  7. manda says:

    I think it’s insulting and offensive. Shame on that magazine.

  8. Kaboom says:

    His smug grin makes people want to beat him like a Tiger Woods pinata.

  9. Annicka says:

    He’s Hispanic?

  10. LolaBella says:

    Methinks Perez has some dirt on someone high up at Hispanic Magazine; that’s the only explanation for this.

    Perez Hilton is vile and the only title he deserves is ‘Douchebag Of The Year’.

  11. Anna says:

    I didn’t even know the guy was Hispanic. All I ever read concerning him are the headlines of what you CB gals post. *lol*

    O.o surely there are more deserving Hispanics than him for this year?

  12. Goddess711 says:

    “Customer of the Year” at Taco Bell is more like it.

  13. oxa says:

    Does this make Courtney Love Mother of the Year?

  14. hatsumomo says:

    It figures. This is the reason why I dont read ethnic specific magazines like Latina or The Current(in S.A.). Its normally full of bullshit and subtle snags at other races. And the writers for ’em are morons. Case in point, what jackass picked Perez? Did their board of writers sit around and think its a good idea?

    But truth be told, I said it once and I’ll say it again, Perez is prolific. He is a very noticeable figure in the ‘game’ of Hispanic and gay worlds.

  15. Feebee says:

    Okay this is as funny as saying Sarah Palin should be the first female Prez because she was the second highest profile female figure in the country.

    Like seriously?? Hispanic of the Year. You’re telling me this is the best the Hispanic community has to offer? I fail to believe that. Just because he’s high profile (because of his disgusting publicity-whoring ways) and he’s Hispanic doesn’t mean he’s worthy of the title HOTY. Ha, ha… didn’t realise the initials spelt that but now that’s another reason to reject the jerk. HOTY he aint.

  16. CindyB says:

    Not one positive comment for Perez being “Hispanic of the Year” — and I agree with the negative comments! Perez is narcissistic, immature, and, and, I can’t even think of a third word because I have no vocabulary! 🙂 But shame! He is the LAST person to deserve that award!!!

  17. Sumodo says:

    Mario Lavandeira has worked very, very hard to get where he is now. PerezHilton.com may not be everybody’s cuppa tea, especially people who can spell and don’t like “penii” drawn all over pictures of Hugh Jackman. In the beginning of his site, PageSixSixSix.com, he personally thanked everyone who gave him story tips. I continue to admire his outrageousness. He is today’s Hedda Hopper. God Bless and Congratulations, Mario.

  18. MooMooMooMooMoo says:

    He sucks, he’s a horrible person.. there are not many people in the world who I feel sick to think about, he is one of them! Him and Paris Hilton.

    He’s not even funny, he just whores himself out now & kisses celebrity arse which entirely negates the point of what he does. I seriously dunno how he can live with himself and be proud of what he does.

  19. Kevin says:

    That was an extremely cool article on Clint. He’s a national treasure in my opinion, though he would be too cool to except that. Hard to believe he’s 79.

  20. Buckley says:

    for fucking shame Hispanic magazine.
    Was he a better choice than say…Sonya Sotomayor?

  21. JDa says:

    seriously, in a year that we receive our first hispanic supreme court justice we get perez hilton as hispanic of the year? i don’t think his infamy should grant him any more allowances, hes a complete jackass and a embarassment to the gay and hispanic communities

  22. diva says:

    This only one minor publications opinion and they are just using him to promote their magazine, since prior to today I’m sure no one ever heard of it.

  23. Lem says:

    ouch that hurts

  24. Tazina says:

    Why is this tool “Hispanic of the Year?” Is it a joke? It’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. He has done nothing for anyone. He is an immature gossip monger, ridicules children on his website, makes fun of the physical appearance of individuals, draws obscene pictures of genitals on their photos, something you might see in elementary school. I don’t get it. Surely the Hispanic community is embarrassed about this.

  25. Jojo says:

    This is a sad day for Hispanics

  26. boo says:

    I agree with @diva. This is just one small magazine but why did they pick somebody so mean? I think he is pretty immature and kisses a$$ most of the time. Michael K he aint.

  27. Green is Good says:

    Is this a joke? Escándalo!

  28. Zoe says:

    Sonya Sotomayor became the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice and we have this loser on the cover to represent us? I call serious BS. Someone who makes his living on blood money seriously doesn’t deserve this cover, I can think of countless Hispanics making great contributions who do. Lame.

  29. Ron says:

    And Here I thought Sonia Sotomayor might be the hispanic of the year.

    DISGRACEFUL.

    Somodo are you Perez? I don’t know anyone in LA that has anything nice to say about Pigez. Someday maybe you’ll be lucky enough to have a daughter that’s famous so he can draw a penis squirting into her mouth. He’s all hispanic class.

  30. Maddie says:

    Why wasn’t Sonia Sotomayor nominated for Hispanic of the Year.

    There kidding right Perez is no one’s hero Latino or not, they do know that he lied about the Black Eyed Peas things called some one a faggot, some thing that he himself rails on when it’s coming out of some else mouth.

    He picks on people for how they look, kids included, doddle obscene things on their body parts, like coke particles on their faces.

    Wow I sure he makes Hispanics around the world proud.

  31. nikki says:

    i go on Perez blog but god! this guy is more vain and egostic than Kanye,P Diddy and Osbourne together!

  32. journey says:

    michael d’s abuelita should give that magazine a piece of her mind and let them know who’s the best hispanic gossip writer! and it ain’t perez hilton!

  33. Sigh. says:

    About this mag picking him for this title —
    1. Lowers the bar for future “winners”
    2. Selling mags by selling out.

  34. kellsbells says:

    The same Perez Hilton who called Will.i.am the F word? W.T.F ?

  35. hmm says:

    JDa, I’m with you. It was Sonia’s year and this is an embarrassment.

  36. Mirdeb says:

    Surely you jest… this guy is scum.

  37. Lizzy says:

    Granted the man has worked hard and whored himself out enough to the media to get where he is, but how does that make him Hispanic of the year? All he does is speak badly about people he doesn’t like, praises those he does and if something isn’t to his liking he says its homophobic or racist. I am a pround latina who is also for gay rights, but come on not everything is homophobic and anti-latino, by labeling everything as such he just adds to his own bigot views. Also what has he done for Hispanics/Latinos in terms of volunteer work, donations, fundraisers etc.? Nothing much, he only works for himself. In conclusion Perez sucks and doesn’t deserve the Hispanic of the year label/award.

  38. anneesezz says:

    Um, didn’t we just get the first Latina supreme court justice? Are they f*cking serious? What a great role model for my Cuban daughter. UGH

  39. Jenna says:

    Uh, he’s spanish?

  40. Shakaiya says:

    Hispanic of the year? Are they serious? Perez is a fucking piece of shit!

  41. Firestarter says:

    Wow! Just wow! This is a very black day for Hispanic culture!

  42. yae says:

    Check the names of the people who own it, check the CEOs CFOs and you’ll see the real reason he was voted in and the owners of the publishing co that prints it. Somewhere, I am sure, you will find why this idiot is their newly appointed icon.

    The idea in hollywood is make sure that scum are in full influence in every culture. I’ll just smile and say “I told you so”.

  43. Mike Miller says:

    I’m fine with that. So long as by Hispanic of the year they actually mean Hispanic douchebag of the year. I think they do.

  44. jill says:

    As a hispanic myself, Spain and Italy blood lines who knew perez was hispanic?

  45. gg says:

    El hombre es cerdo de la década.

  46. hatsumomo says:

    I get what Sumodo is trying to convey. It anit easy clawing your way to the top of the douchebag mountain. But Perez has managed to do that and make a lucrative career out of it. Its not your cuppa, but you got to admire it.

    My man is always telling me to start my gossip blog and he’ll host my site for me, but I just dont have that, edge, wit, that thing you have to get people to care what you say. So I can admire the way someone writes and be good at it, even if I dont agree with it.

  47. GatsbyGal says:

    I had no idea he was hispanic. But wikipedia says his full name is Mario Armando Lavandeira. Who knew.

    Hispanic of the year, though? Jesus Christ…were the other nominees really that abysmal?

  48. lrm says:

    SJP does NOT look either homeless or unphotogenic. She looks like a normal person in the winter in NYC,walking around town.
    Honestly. I even dress like that in so cal. in the winter at times. It’s called function. And comfort.
    Homeless it is not.
    And she looks fine.

  49. luna says:

    boo, “Michael K he isn’t” indeed. to think, in the year of Sotomayor this douche gets named hispanic of the year?

  50. Sumodo says:

    @hatsumomo–Thanks, and you get it. What I took for granted is that our fellow readers would understand that the mag giving out this honor is an entertainment rag. Would a magazine listing the “5 Best Bars in San Juan” on its cover be anything more than a fun/lifestyle publication? Putting Justice Sotomayor next to that verbiage is indecent, really. Justice Sotomayor deserves more quality magazines recognizing her than this puny rag.

  51. westender says:

    What a joke!!!

  52. Az says:

    Really? In a year that gave us Sonia Sotomayor, Perez Hilton is Hispanic of the year?

  53. Ursula says:

    Why???? May be he is now the major share holder in this magazine.

    Let me guess, they had a really difficult time choosing between Perez and Sotomoyor. In the end they had to go with Perez because he embodies what all Hispanics want to be.

  54. Lway says:

    @ Shakaiya LOL! Whoomp there it is!

  55. Jazz says:

    What the hell??!

  56. bden says:

    Who knew we Hispanics had such a bad, bad 2009?

  57. moo says:

    I bet there’s a LOT of pissed of Hispanics!!! what a douche…..

  58. Leek says:

    What a terrible decision. This is a man who tries to tell his readers that 13 year old children of celebrities are homosexual and constantly makes fun of some of the babies for not being cute enough. He doesn’t have a clue how to be a decent human being. He is vile.

  59. Ice Bunny says:

    what an insult to every Hispanic ever born. This guy is as slimy as they come. A worse role model this magazine could not have picked if they searched the world over. There goes ANY credibility they ever hoped to have. (Presumeably magazines like credibility??) Now if it was April 1st, I could POSSIBLY understand the pick. Any other month? Nope. Guess they are as much a douche-fest as he is.

  60. Black Kat says:

    disgusting that they looked for someone to represent and came up with this scum bag. if i were hispanic I would be so insulted.

  61. Pedro says:

    ¿Éste es algo que son orgullosos de?

  62. Aspie says:

    Disgusting!

  63. paranel says:

    Why ? He is an ignorant uneducated embarrassing individual to any community . What has he done other than drawing funny lines on celebrity photos and post them on line ? The photos he steals from other website.
