“Hi, I am a reality show producer looking for an assistant for a Real Superman Show.” Simple, yes? No. This is “high concept” metaphysical stuff, and you, potential assistant, need to grasp the tenuous connection between phenomenal celebreality and literary fiction, so please bear with this producer for 5,500 words.

Are you a total news junkie? Do you know Gawker's voice inside and out? Would you willingly—and more importantly, would you happily—spend hours glued to a computer screen scouring the internet for the newsworthy and noteworthy?

We're looking for an incredibly talented writer to help us here at Gawker on a freelance, part-time basis. Fit the bill? Email a brief note with links to your work to remy@gawker.com and we'll be in touch if we're interested.

Do you fancy yourself a pop culture aficionado? Can you stomach watching daytime television trash, 24-hour news networks, reality programming, or any combination of the three? Do you have enough willpower to keep your eyes glued to a television screen for hours at a time?

The suspect in the Natalee Holloway murder, Joran Van der Sloot, is looking for a new defense attorney after his Peruvian lawyer quit the case out of fear for his life: "I'm an older person. This isn't for me."

When people complain about technology ruining our culture (TV making us illiterate, the internet shortening attention spans) their fears are generally misplaced. Until now. MTV is hunting for its new version of the VJ, the TJ or Twitter Jockey.

Prostitutes are the new carnies. South African authorities estimate 40,000 sex workers from the Congo, Russia, and beyond will make pilgrimages to their nation to get rich servicing soccer fans. Sex tourism: Now, the hookers come to you. [GlobalPost]

The folks at Gawker Creative Services — the ones responsible for the little sponsored posts that run on the front page from time to time — is hiring. Read on if you're interested.

New York Times Metro section editor Joe Sexton is "looking for a tiger," according to a job posting passed along by a tipster. No, not that kind of tiger. More like a Dalton Tiger!

Gawker Media's advertising team seeks an HTML-savvy, Excel-tolerant, Photoshop-friendly Intern who will lug their laptop to the NY office each day to perform entry level feats of data entry, ad banner banging, spreadsheeting, and maybe code contortionism. The marketing industry calls this 'trafficking.' We call it heroism.

Nutty and strangely adorable Courtney Love has job opportunities for you! First, she's seeking someone honest to clean up after her. "i need a non thieving non freaky housekeeper," she writes on her MySpace page. But the candidate doesn't have to be entirely "non freaky" she clarifies: "is anyone insanely clean neatfreak near malibu?" But if cleaning isn't your specialty, how are you with a camera? "also i need we need a documentarist, someone to document our studio as we go in wedsday, and i have ALOT of work to do til then and i wont just hand this to hbo or bbc 2 or bravo and god forbid not vh1!

While you might not recognize the name Tiffany Pollard, anyone who has followed Vh1's Celebreality franchises over the last three years certainly knows the name New York. After getting rebuffed by Flavor Flav on the first two installments of the gloriously trashy Flavor Of Love series, she became one of cable television's biggest stars when the premiere episode of I Love New York became the most-watched series premiere in the network's history. Now, having proved to be one of reality television's most resilient stars (along with Real World / Road Rules vets like Mark Long and Coral Smith), Tiffany "New York" Pollard is now attempting to be the first person since Real World: London's Jacinda Barrett to make the successful leap to silver screen stardom on her newest show, New York Goes To Hollywood. In the show's first episode, New York learns that, just like any other aspiring actor or actress, she needs to get herself a manager before she has the opportunity to show what she can do on the casting couch. Sadly, the monologue she delivered for a room full of low-level talent scouts — the kind that would have trouble scoring a table for 4 at the In-N-Out Burger — made Brian Atene look like Stanislavski's most prized pupil. Her poorly performed (yet hilariously overacted) riff on dog shit and public transportation awaits you after the jump.

The following email was sent by the deputy editor of The Straits Times, an English language newspaper in the only growing market for print papers left: Asia. Singapore, specifically. The editor would like to know if maybe anyone who is going to get laid off from the New York Times would like to go work in a country whose "press freedom ranks below Nigeria and just ahead of Russia." They are in dire need of copy-editors, apparently! The last couple were maybe caned? Email below, via Thomas Crampton.

Our former advertising columnist Mark Duffy is looking for a new home! He will take his column to the highest bidder. He would prefer outlets that would let him swear more than we have—and that haven't become, in his words, as "boring as piss," like Gawker! [Copyranter]

Do you have a camera, editing skills, balls (we speak figuratively, of course, as we're an ovary-positive shop), and a total disregard for either your professional reputation of your personal safety?
