Our New Intern: Lydia Hearst

December 15, 2008
UPDATE: See the report of Lydia's day o' interning, plus photo gallery.
Ever since Ryan Adams got promoted, our office has been crippled. Celebrity intern duties -- showing up, performing menial tasks for the camera, blogging about it, et cetera -- have ground to a halt. James Frey wouldn't return our calls after he landed an internship at Gawker. Fortunately, today, supermodel super-heiress Lydia Hearst has stepped into the breach. Why, she's done more intern work before 1 p.m. than most interns do before 2 p.m., and she's not stopping anytime (real) soon. Full report tomorrow, but after the jump, more Lydia as Intern, plus more Lydia as Lydia.
As part of her intern resume, here we have a few supplementary shots of Lydia Hearst (by photographer Randall Slavin) originally published in our short-lived sibling publication Room100.

eileen shut-up you know nothing about the modeling industry. It is not as glamorous or easy as you think.
BTW she is not Paris Hilton, whom is not a model.
Great it see Lydia Hearst working on the new chapter of her life. Wish you (Lydia) nothing but the best.

lydia seems really cool to me....
she’s been around the hood quite a bit lately ( Taschen, Soho) and she has good energy.
she’s beautiful and she has a certain presence that i don’t think is there because of a presumed pedigree.
stay fresh and cheers....

really? An heiress turned super-model? barf.
Do you think she worked real hard to get those heinous photos taken of her? Go find someone who actually works or has worked to get where they have gotten rather than some privileged kid, to whom this is just one of many open doors facing them. Lamelamelamelamelamelame.
