Closing in on Socialite Rank

FINGERED Blasberg maintains his innocence
The results of RadarOnline.com's quasi-scientific, vaguely empirical poll to unmask the creators of SocialiteRank are in, and one thing's for sure: Tina Brown and Harry Evans definitely aren't your editors. Neither are Banana Republic pinup Jessica Joffe, Mogue editor Hudson Morgan, space cadet Arden Wohl, or SR frontrunners Tinsley Mortimer and Fabiola Beracasa. These candidates all received votes of less than 50 percent.
A group of five favorites has emerged, however, and it's led by doughboy "writer" Derek Blasberg. With 74 percent of you casting votes for Blasberg, Tinz's lackey is the lead suspect in a group that also includes Vogue's Lauren Davis (59 percent), fashion scribe Peter Davis (58 percent), Columbia grad student Claire Bernard (56 percent), and, in a Sanjaya-esque surprise, flack R. Couri Hay (53 percent).
