We heard from a former Glamour employee earlier today, who claimed that everyone at Glamour hated the recently-removed young editor and blogger Ashley Baker. (Ashley lost her job over comments about black womens' hair in the office world, and also woke up this morning to a really odd and sorta fishy item about how Glamour editor Cindi Leive was so enraged by Ashley's behavior.) Now we hear from a current staffer, who paints quite the opposite word-picture.
I think I speak on behalf of everyone at Glamour when I say that what was posted today is exactly the opposite of how people here feel about Ashley. In spite of the fact that she made a mistake, for which she's deeply, deeply sorry, her karma is golden. Everyone loves her here for her enthusiasm, intelligence, sweetness, humor, and all around wonderfulness. She really was (and is) impossible NOT to like. She was a HUGE asset to this staff and a lot of people here are very sad that she's left. Everyone was standing around reading that posting just appalled. We know that Ashley will go on to have a great career in or out of the magazine business--whatever she decides.

An ex-Glamourite fills in the blanks for us regarding former beauty editor and blogger Ashley Baker, whose "racist" hair statements seem to have made it not possible for her to keep her job. Ashley's straightforward writing and weight-honesty may have been honorable, but those assets don't seem to have engendered her fellow employees' loyalty.
She knew everyone hated her and almost quit to work at Bazaar a few months ago, but apparently at the time, she was still [Glamour editor] Cindi [Leive's] "pet" so they gave her all this $$$ to stay, and she stayed reluctantly, but became even more bitter and bitchy and burned a lot of bridges (ahem) and after Cindi started to hate her too, she knew it was just time. Cindi still really liked her up until [the American Lawyer scandale]. They were very close—Cindi would defend her to everyone who hated her, so all she really had was Cindi and when Cindi turned on her, her life was over there. She's the only one at Glamour who 'goes out' so they think she's cool and connected. But she's really not. At all. Karma is a bitch - she's such a cunt.
Um, as opposed to the person who said this, who is clearly a little ray of sunshine!

- Formerly endearingly real British singer Lily Allen lost a lot of weight via hypnotism. Lame! [TMZ]
- Image maintenance alert! Glamour editor Cindy Leive totally flipped her wig, we are told to believe, when she found out that the recently-canned young staffer Ashley Baker had told a group of lawyers that "dreadlocks or Afros are a definite 'no'" in the office. [Page Six]
- Vanity Fair blowhard Christopher Hitchens has had the hair removed from his nutsack. [Page Six]
- Fox anchor Shep Smith (or, perhaps, another gentleman similarly employed!) can't keep his cats off the bed during gay, gay sex. [Gatecrasher, last item]
