So we sent Ben Hoffman to the streets of Hollywood to let the public weigh in on the demise of infoMania. Naturally, everyone we met was crushed, especially once Ben explained what the heck infoMania is. Or should that be, "what infoMania was"? Sorry, it's tough to type through the tears.

Even though Oprah Winfrey gave 18 months notice before ending her legendary talk show this week, the TV world doesn't seem any closer to finding her replacement. Erin Gibson decided to do her part by hitting the streets of Hollywood to discover the next Oprah. If you see only one video this year that puts Julia Roberts' face on a stick, make it this one.
For good reason, no woman has ever had the balls, moxie or delusion to claim the title of "the world's premiere basic cable expert on lady stuff."
Until now.
Meet Erin Gibson. She's freakishly tall, sort of smart, and willing to do just about anything to get a bemused chuckle.
Her segment, Modern Lady, on infoMania, is dedicated to reporting and commenting on what's happening on Planet Lady.*
