Guinea Pig Excited for Apple Watch

by Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

Apple’s live keynote event was last week, and among those watching with eager anticipation was Maisy the guinea pig.

“She’s been a fan of Apple since the first iPod,” says Craig Sickler, a friend. “She’ll pretty much plan her day around a live event.”

When the hotly rumored Apple Watch was finally unveiled, Maisy could hardly contain her excitement.

“She knew it was coming – and when Tim Cook said ‘just one more thing,’ she almost dropped her MacBook,” says Sickler. “She’ll get it the day it comes out. Does she need one? Probably not. I mean, she’s a guinea pig. That’s never stopped her before, though.”

Chinchilla Victimized by iCloud Hack

by Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

According to reports, a compromising picture of Mabel the chinchilla was recently leaked to the web. The actress and singer is the latest celebrity to be impacted by malicious hackers taking advantage of security flaws in Apple’s iCloud service.

“She’s usually very discreet about the pictures she puts in the cloud,” says friend Heather Warner. “Like anyone, she understands the inherent risks of outsourcing data storage.”

While Mabel has not commented publicly on the matter, she has released a series of tweets slyly alluding to the leak.

“It was such a blatant invasion of privacy,” says Warner. “No one needs to know what color her bathroom tiles are.”

Hamster Model Master “Blue Steel”

According to his manager, Christian the hamster has finally gotten down the most fabled look in modeling.

“He did ‘Blue Steel,’” says Len Perlstein. “We were shooting for the Sears fall catalog, and all of a sudden he just does it. It was like someone sucked the air out of the room. Time stood still. It was glorious.”

Long considered the most challenging look a model can master, “Blue Steel” has evaded some of the most famous names in runway fashion.

“No one’s done it correctly since ’86,” says Perlstein. “Christian’s just a special hamster. Now, if I could get him to lay off the pellets, that would be amazing.”
