‘Fame Whore’ Update: Hurry Up, Guys, Julia Allison Is Available Again

from a recent Reddit thread about Julia Allison

Readers may remember Julia Baugher, a/k/a Julia Allison, the erstwhile Internet celebrity who tried to make Sex in the City her guide to the happy life, only to suffer shame and heartbreak as a consequence. At one point in 2010, she was publicly recognized as the girlfriend of John Sidney “Jack,” McCain IV, son of the Arizona senator and then a 25-year-old Navy pilot, but like all of Julia’s relationships, that ended badly. About six months into their affair, after she had moved into Jack’s apartment, Julia was reportedly evicted by Jack’s mother.

In 2014, Julia “married herself” at the Burning Man festival and, falling head-first into the whole “alternative” culture, began dating a New Age hippie musician who called himself “Rain PhuturePrimitive.” That ended in 2017 when he decided he was into “polyamory,” and in 2018, Julia had an epiphany and decided it was time to settle down with a “reasonable choice” — a relationship which a few months later predictably went down in flames like the Hindenburg at Lakehurst.

“File it and forget it” is my usual modus operandi, and I hadn’t given any thought to checking up on Julia Allison for more than two years until Tuesday, when I noticed some incoming traffic from a Reddit thread, reporting that Julia had been dumped — again! — and was now back on the dating market at age 39. Unfortunately, the anti-Julia hate site “RebloggingDonk” has disappeared, so there is no longer an online clearinghouse for gossip about the erstwhile relationship-advice columnist. According to a tipster, however, what happened was this: Julia had been dating a doctor in the San Francisco area, who shall remain nameless. She used the COVID-19 pandemic as an excuse to move in with him, but after a few months of her craziness, he kicked her out.

Allegedly, I hasten to add. Julia’s father is a lawyer who has been known to threaten lawsuits, and it is therefore my obligation to emphasize that this is just “sources say,” as unverified as anything a D.C. journalist reports from anonymous “White House officials.” However, a quick glance at her Instagram account reveals that Julia is now in Bali, and has apparently deleted all posts about her previous relationship.

Did you know that Julia Baugher once published a 73-point checklist of conditions for any guy who wanted to date her? A digital copy of the complete list has been archived at Reddit, and you have to marvel at the lack of self-awareness of a woman who begins her list by stating that a man must love her “unconditionally,” then sets out 72 conditions necessary for her to reciprocate his love. Meanwhile . . .

Speaking of updates, you are simply not going to believe this one. Do you remember Kaitlyn Hunt, the teenage Florida lesbian who briefly became a gay-rights cause célèbre in 2013 after she was charged with illegally having sex with a 15-year-old? What made that story so fascinating was not necessarily Kaitlyn’s legal problems — what part of “take the plea bargain” is so hard to understand? — but rather the deranged behavior of the online #FreeKate cult that sprang up around the case.

It was, really, not much different from most other statutory rape cases, except that Kaitlyn and her deranged supporters seemed to believe they could pressure prosecutors to drop the charges by accusing them of “homophobia.” The problem with that belief, however, is that such a precedent would have rendered Florida’s age-of-consent laws effectively null and void. If the people of Florida really wanted to declare 15-year-olds “fair game,” they could lobby their legislature to change the law, but the #FreeKate lunatics thought they could turn Kaitlyn into a civil-rights hero for underage homosexuality. There were several obvious problems with this belief, including the fact that Kaitlyn was sending sexual videos of herself to her underage girlfriend, providing prosecutors with digital evidence that could not be ignored. When all was said and done, Kaitlyn spent Thanksgiving 2013 in the Indian River County Jail. She was eventually sentenced to three years probation. She then married an older lesbian named Latisha Thomas, with whom she had a son, reportedly conceived by artificial insemination. Well, guess what?

1. Kaitlyn and Latisha broke up;
2. Last year, Kaitlyn announced she was engaged again;
3. And also, pregnant;
4. She recently gave birth;
and
5. She’s actually in a relationship with . . . a man!

How she boomeranged around into heterosexuality is, I’m sure, a very interesting story. When a tipster informed me of this development, I could scarcely believe it, and asked if there were some online evidence. Now that I’ve actually seen the photos, I believe it, even though I find it impossible to understand. How does someone go from being a lesbian cause célèbre at 19 to being a heterosexual housewife at 27?

Is there a moral to this strange tale? Well, I guess if you’re a guy looking to settle down, you’ll have better luck with a lonely lesbian than you would with Julia Allison. But your mileage may vary.
