  • I'm With Her! (Lindsay, Paris, and Britney, that is...)

    I'm With Her! (Lindsay, Paris, and Britney, that is...)
    Nov 13 2025
    Nancy Jo November continues with Troy and Dara's deep dive into the Vanity Fair article, "I'm With Her!" which takes a closer look at some of the ghoulish +1's of the Sunset Strip... because behind every successful young celebutante is a man draining her of her money and spirit. This piece paints a vivid picture of the 2007 class of Hollywood High. It's Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan, Mischa Barton, Ashlee Simpson, Mary Kate Olsen, and the men who loved to yell at them on the sidewalk outside of Les Deux, like Kevin Federline, Brandon "Greasy Bear" Davis, Cisco Adler, Wilmer Valderrama, The Good Charlotte Twins, Harry Morton, and Pete Wentz.
