She's a Rich Girl (TM) but she's gone too far and she know it don't matter anyway...

well. i get a multitude of hits on this site from people who have searched for "Jaime Gleicher" or "Jaime Gleicher & Barnard" or even "Jaime Gleicher & Camp Robindel." I have two things to say: a) i wish that she'd stop following my sisters around (one goes to barnard and two were at camp with her when she was there) b) i feel a little bit badly about these pictures i am going to post, BUT NOT BADLY ENOUGH TO STOP ME! hee!

We've all had our awkward stages, some worse than others. Luckily, most of us don't produce our own show for MTV. Jaime, however, has done. both. (had a WHOA AWKWARD! stage and produced a show). As such she has landed herself squarely (heh) in the public eye. The other day, my sister called me and was like "Oh. My. God. i found the funniest pictures of Jaime Gleicher at camp!" and while i don't normally believe her when she deems things funny, this time she was right. the humor of it even resulted in my little cousin cracking wise: "in one of the pictures she's wearing a wonder bread shirt, and i'm all 'what'd she do, eat four loafs???'"

anyway, without further ado, here's Jaime Gleicher of Rich Girls fame, circa 1996, courtesy the Camp Robindel year book - apologies, had to take pictures, no access to a scanner.
(click on them to see a larger image: photo one is pre-social, photo two is her bunk, Maple. I was in that bunk. M-A-P-L-E Maple's got UNITY, go MAPLE *gasp* FOURTEEN YEARS AGO)

oh my god. these HAVE to be mailed to the enquirer...

[lauren]

are these NOT THE FUNNIEST EVER? the guilt i feel about exploiting her is totally overwhelmed by giggling fits everytime i look at the pics.

[ahren]

perhaps i'm "out of the loop" or something... who is jamie gleicher? what show does she produce?

[People At MTV]

like, WHOA. someone doesn't watch our shows? contact the Ministry of Mind Control! she's this 18yr old girl who, with Ally Hilfiger (Tommy Hilfiger's daughter), produces a show on MTV about being rich in NYC. it's pretty vapid and annoying, but somehow enthralling. here's the blurb from MTV: "Meet Ally Hilfiger and Jaime Gleicher: normal teenagers who enjoy doing normal teenage things like shopping, talking on the phone, and going to the prom. But there's one important difference between them and the rest of us--they're rich. Really, really, really rich. Get a first-hand look at their super-fabulous life when MTV follows two of the wealthiest teens on the planet to see how they spend their mountains of money."

lemmer they spend more $$ on a pair of shoes than you did on yur snowboard.

apparently apres Camp Robindel, Ms. Gleicher went to another camp: http://www.gawker.com/archives/009768.php

[Kathleen]

there's something sadistically fascinating about these photos.

[lg]

i think it's that they capture her *right* at that turning point, when she was still just a girl (albeit a chubs, slightly awkward girl getting ready for a camp social and still unable to get up on two skis even behind the Whaler on Lake Winnipesaukee) and not yet the scowling, smoking rich girl we see today.

or they're just fucking hysterical and i can't stop staring at them because i'm mean. whatever.

[es]

we used to play robindel in tennis tournaments. too bad i'm 7 years older , i would love to have i knew her when...stories about miss gleicher.

[ahren]

wow. i'm clearly missing out. how come reality shows are all about rich people? let's have some about poor people-- we can sit enthralled as we watch young jorge lopez waste away from some curable disease because his family doesn't have health coverage-- or something like that.

[jc]

whoa, so much money, still so much fugliness. highly unfortunate.

[Malcolm J.]

What's that weird thing on her face in the first pic causing the sides of her mouth to curl up?

[Matt]

probably braces

[Master of the Obvious]

if by braces you mean a muscle spasm that has caused this cheshire cat wannabee to turn into the open mouthed scowler of today, then yes. that'd be braces.

[ethan]

of all the blogs lauren has written this is the most popular. is this not in some way indicative of society and/or everyone's addiction to mtv?

p.s. did anyone catch the new real world last nite?

[gideon]

i don't understand why people talk about her "going through an awkward stage." have you guys seen the show? she's still in that "awkward stage." she's fugly (fat and ugly), plain and simple.

[lauren]

yeah. i guess calling it a "stage" is a misnomer.

[namedropper]

is it me, or do ALL camp photos look exactly alike? i'm not talking about the awkward phase, i'm talking about girls who are too young to be wearing that much make-up but have finally gotten away from their parents long enough to be taught how to put it on even though it looks silly with shorts and a t-shirt. i know, i was one of those girls.

[curious cat]

so liiiiiike, when you say "you were one of those girls" do you mean in general-like, or specifically, YOU WERE ONE OF THOSE GIRLS [in the picture], eh bazooka joe?

[Jaime Gleicher]

You Guys Are Just Jealous OF ME! I May Have Been OverWeight In My Younger Days But At Least I'm Fabulous Now!

[Jen]

I happen to fine Jaime Glecicher doing what anyone of us would do if we got the chance if all your self centered people would quit focusing on other people maybe you can see your not that great and if you spend time judging people you can never know and seeing you dont know her get a life other then spending time making a website about someone who isnt spending their time downing other people I dont care what she USED to look like or whatever else you all have to say she is still a human being just like everyone else We all came from the same place and will get judge someday by someone it at least matters what they think so untill next sesson get a life and get over your selfs You must have missed all the moral or the show about how they plan on helping people unlike you who obiously plans on hurting others Thanks so much Jen
Jamie keep your head high they are the same people who tune in every tuesday night

[WTF?]

If the above were in english, maybe i'd feel badly. but since it's not, i can only hope you're not a fellow barnard student as well.

[ethan]

this comment section just keeps getting better and better. honestly. this is just pure entertainment.

i would hereby like to invite all jamie fans to state their opinions. ready, go!

[Matt Kemp]

Jamie is a disgusting pig. From these it is obvious she always has. She sucks.

[lauren the moderator]

WHOA- let's tone it down a notch, yeah? i know we've been poking fun, but c'mon, Mr. Kemp. whyn't you post your picture and let some of us take pot shots at you???
