Special ‘Guess the Lineup for the Perez Hilton SXSW Party’ Version of Things We Love

2010 March 4

Hands down, Fader Fort wins best party during SXSW. But for me, the best lineup is always the Perez Hilton Party. And while I may not agree with celeb chasing, I’ve gotta give the dude mad props for his music selection.

I won’t lie: Last year got a little messy. I scammed my way in by using a printout of my roommates RSVP, met up with my folks, and made a beeline to the adult bevskis. Whether it was the abundance of free beer or the rivers of free vodka, my boys and I got crunk quickly, and proceed to dance around and scream things like:” ’04 represent” and “SoCo in da house.”

It was a lot of fun, but the music, man, the music: Yelle, Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head, Little Boots, Ladyhawke, Kid Cudi, Solange and SURPRISE guest: Kanye West. After the show ended at 2A, we bounced over to the hotel pool next door, stripped and had rowdy relay races until we got kicked out.

I don’t know if it’s possible to top Kanye West, but I know Perez has it in him. Since the line-up hasn’t been announced yet, we’re mixing a little rumor with a little educated guessing to give you our  lineup for the Perez Hilton party:

  • Lady Gaga –> This has been the biggest rumor. Not surprising, they’re are besties and she’s on the top of the world right now
  • Courtney Love –> Hole’s big US comeback is happening at the SPIN party during SXSW, so…
  • Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings –> Amy Winehouse has been replaced.
  • M.I.A. –> He always dogs her, but she’s got a new album coming out, and it would be a huge surprise. Diplo’s in town…
  • Wale –> Wale is the hip-hop darling right now. He also has done a couple tracks with Lady Gaga.
  • Uffie –> potty-mouthed electro princess, she’s gonna be at SXSW and she has a new album.
  • Amanda Blank –> See Uffie, except not at SXSW BUT she doesn’t have anything booked
  • Nicki Minaj –> The new Foxy Brown or Little Kim. She’s bisexual and Perez loves controversy
  • JJ –> dreamy electro about drugs. They aren’t booked during SXSW, but they are touring with the XX, who are ALL over SXSW
  • And I’m tapped out…

Our friends over at ATXGossip also have a guess as to the venue.
