Not that anyone even reads Vibe anymore (except of course the New York Times Sunday Styles editors) but if Jeff Bercovici is gossiping about it, it must be at least semi-worth mentioning. Everyone loves a "the entire magazine hates the boss" story, and this one involves the newly refurbished Vibe magazine.

(Sidenote: is it just us, or is Radar more obsessed with Vibe than Adam Moss is with Julianne Moore?)

Anyways, not only is Vibe's new EIC Danyel Smith pissing off celebs but she's majorly pissing off her own staffers.

The new bosses of Vibe are doing an extraordinary job of getting themselves hated. Editor in chief Danyel Smith was unlikely to win the hearts of the few staffers she didn't fire upon arrival—her first official action was to install her name on the masthead of an issue she hadn't worked on …

She didn't stop there. Smith replaced the planned Christina Aguilera cover with an oh-so-savvy Bobby Brown issue — which doesn't feel very BlackBook family … or at all interesting — a move that likely peeved staffers. Especially music editor Clive Owen. Oh, also, Elliot Wilson, editor of XXL (and as Radar points out, Vibe's main competitor) is her husband.

Well, it's good to see somebody out there is giving Robin Cembalest a run for her "bitchiest non-famous editor" title.
