How did famous people and things fare this week? Who got more famous, less famous, or kept it even?

↑ Elliott Smith: Dead. Now with more fame.
↑ Time Out/New York: Actually had a funny cover photo this week.
↑ P. Diddy: The marathon runner was exposed as a sweatshop operator. You can't buy that kind of PR.
↑ 30-year-olds: Now they have their own point-of-purchase book. (Late for a 30th birthday party? You know you'll buy it.)
↑ Kobe Bryant's Accuser: On the cover of the tabloids to feed Bonnie Fuller's coffers.
↑ Rosie O'Donnell: Potty-mouthed fungal works the courtroom.
→ Michael Wolff: parties hearty, will parlay constant Michael's-lunching into a nice column in a monthly magazine within the next six months.
→ The Strokes: Their album came out silently but not deadly.
↓ Steve Bartman: Maybe he destroyed the World Series for the Cubs, but Chicago has no attention span.
↓ Jayson Blair: He's barely a punchline these days.
↓ Paris Hilton: She's actually working, not whoring. Whole minutes go by in between photo ops now.
↓ Venezuelans: Yesterday's hot nationality now replaced by Australians.
