Leslie Hall: Dear Diary
The gem sweater bedazzlements and lyrical besnazzlements of "internet ceWEBrity" Leslie Hall have graced Boing Boing tv before -- but in today's episode, Ms. Hall submits an exclusive tour diary for BBtv viewers, a veritable world exclusive. "With these shoulderpads I have the strength to destroy, villages, homes, and crops," she warns. Her ladyfire is mighty, as all ye who gaze upon this video shall witness.
Ms. Hall was among the internet personalities who participated in the recent ROFLcon gathering in Cambridge, Mass. Her presence there among fellow internet memesters is documented in this Wired gallery, and in a photo set from Scott Beale of Laughing Squid. See also his short video of the Tron Guy talking about geek women. Which brings us back to the 26-year-old Ms. Hall, straight outta Iowa, believed by her many followers to be the fiercest gold-lame-wrapped geek woman on the planet.

Woohoo! Leslie, rap on!!! Stay Golden
She made me sweat just watching her in that Glad-Wrap-like-Gold-lame outfit. I need to take a shower... or maybe I'll just slap on some perfume.
I live in Iowa. If I want to see ladies in gem sweaters, I just have to go down to the Perkins restaurant.
But Leslie is hot in hers. Literally.
I had the INCREDIBLE fortune to meet Ms. Hall at ROFLCon. It was truly one of the best things that has ever happened to me. We deeply engaged in meaningful conversation. I brought her some water after her performance because the throng of admirers was simply too thick to allow her glamorous goldenness to pass. Needless to say, I have been touched by the power of the gems: I am totally going to bedazzle the "SHAZAM! I'm glamorous!" shirt I bought from Leslie's mom. Leslie, if you looking, remember that I will always love you in a non-sexual way.
When someone manages to be so inscrutable that the mutants can't follow them, that's an accomplishment!
I was fully prepared to put Ms. Hall on the same shelf as Klaus Pierre, but after hearing her I think she may be on to something. I am not sure I would put her on my iPod, but she reminds me a bit of Meryn Cadell, who I do have on my iPod.
HA! I saw them filming some of this last weekend in Jamaica Plain (Boston)-- that guy telling her to leave works at the Greek pizza place near Hyde Square (good gyros there BTW).
The Tron Guy video is no longer available on Flickr. :(
Leslie's sheer hustle just doesn't cut it for me. If you're not authentic (Jay Maynard, Randy Constan, Tay Zonday), you'd better be insanely insightful (Max & Gabe, Ze Frank).

Well, is it okay if I love her in a sexual way?
I don't quite entirely buy her shtick, but I can appreciate it and there's something really likable about her. Bedazzle me, Leslie. Bedazzle me.
Why won't she go away?
