Would you like to be a down-market version of Lauren Conrad? Want to spend your workdays hand-washing Glenda Bailey's coffee mug (as we're told her intern does), fact-checking front-of-the-book nail-polish guides, and avoiding the withering glares of Bailey's two assistants? Oh, and would you like to pay for the privilege? Then bid now for a one-month internship at Harper’s Bazaar! Charitybuzz.com is running the auction, and the cash will benefit Bette Midler's New York Restoration Project. The numbers are already up to $725, although the estimated worth of the internship is $1,500. Why so low, we wonder? Isn't this the job a million girls would kill for? Oh, right: This is Bazaar. Let's just hope, you know, that someone does all the necessary background checks so that no real killers or psychopaths — or worse — old or fat or ugly people show up at the office, like adult career-changers or people from subpar colleges. Because Bazaar wants to do its part for charity and all, but who wants to be that charitable?
