Paris Hilton- Last of 15 min of fame

Sorry if this has been posted already.


Last night on CNN's "Showbiz Tonight" (the most boring entertainment news show on the air) declared that it was the beginning of the end of Paris Hilton's 15 minutes of fame.

They had a columnist from one of the New York papers on who said he stopped writing about Paris Hilton in his column awhile ago because she was such a poor roll model for his daughter.

They went on to state that Paris Hilton makes 7 million dollars a year for public appearances...all she has to do is show up. Nice work if you can get it.


This morning on E! New...Paris was the leading story for running her Bentley up on the curb...so I think she'll be around a while longer. Unfortunately.

$7 million a year for just showing up??

During my party girl days, the most I ever got was free admission, a jump in a line or a drink ticket here or there if I knew someone (or as often was the case, knew someone who knew someone). pout

The segment was quite harsh. In a nut shell it said "Paris Hilton is a no talent, no values waste of time."


It was great. nod

lol it would be bad news for a canadian girl
who has moved to new york

she also gets paid to "show up"
and just because she kinds looks like paris neutral


The 21-year-old model earns between $700 and $2,000 per "Paris" appearance.

Reid said the job has perks such as free meals at posh restaurants, VIP treatment at the hottest clubs
and even one $50,000 shopping spree at an expensive boutique.

Reid doesn't necessarily pretend to be Hilton, she just doesn't correct those who assume she is.

Britney rules!!! lol Of course she does that stuff on purpose. You don't give these people enough credit. They know how to play the game and the public eats it up. That's why certain celebs stay around for such a long time.

Why was he EVER writing about that whore anyway? confused I just don't understand the media mentality - they build these fuckers up for absolutely no reason at all, praise them & call them fabulous, then drop them when they tire of them. HOW ABOUT putting an ounce of thought into what you report on in the first place?? Like never wasting ink on such losers? neutral

Article about Paris not paying to get into an AIDS benefit.....

http://entertainment.msn....5?GT1=7701

Paris' PR Problem

Prefer your Paris Hilton news served up with a heaping helping dose of schadenfreude? Not satisfied that she's already facing a $10 million defamation lawsuit, a restraining order and the potential exposure of the oh-so-intimate contents of a storage locker? Then take heart, because the self-promoting starlet is now being hit with accusations that she stiffed a worthy cause.

The New York Post reports Hilton, who was reportedly nixed by Vanity Fair overlord Graydon Carter from the magazine's exclusive Oscar fete (her rep insists she decided not to attend), may also become persona non grata at Elton John's annual bash after she failed to pony up the cash for her ticket.

"The party is a benefit gala [for the Elton John AIDS Foundation], and tickets are $2,500 a pop," a mole tells the paper. "When it was suggested to her that she donate the money, Paris just said, 'Don't you know who I am?' and waltzed right in. Isn't she supposed to be wealthy? Everyone else paid. She won't be asked back."

A mouthpiece for the charity verifies that the Greek billion-heir enthusiast neglected to fork over the moolah, but her rep insists it's all just a misunderstanding.

"Paris did instruct her accountant to cut a check for $10,000. They should get their money," the flack explains to the Post (let's hope this isn't the same accountant who was in charge of making payments on her storage unit, which ended being sold at public auction).

But Paris' latest problems apparently aren't confined to the party circuit. According to the paper, her previously cozy relationship with Us Weekly has cooled, with a source sniping, "... She doesn't sell. They will run pictures of her, but that's about it."

But before you run out and renew your subscription on the hope of Paris-free days ahead, keep in mind the latest issue has a long article on her still chilly relationship with "Simple Life" costar and former bestest pal Nicole Richie.

The magazine also features Hilton among its worst-dressed of the week, thanks to the constricting pink lace negligee she wore to her 25th birthday party, an unflattering frock that highlighted a bit of a bulge in her usually flat-as-her-acting midsection.

That slight swelling, coupled with a recent paparazzi-captured visit to a plastic surgery office in Beverly Hills, has led the London Sun to one inevitable conclusion: She's considering a tummy tuck. Expect the denials to come fast and furiously.

And finally, in a bit of potentially positive Paris news (those laden with schaden can stop reading now), speculation has begun that she may be trying to settle the defamation lawsuit filed by Zeta Graff, the ex-girlfriend of her onetime fiancé, Paris Latsis.

Paris, who is accused of planting a fictitious item in the Post that alleged a jealous Graff attacked her on the dance floor of a London club, was captured leaving a Beverly Hills eatery with her late last week.

Their tête-à-tête is all the more surprising given Paris' November deposition, in which she admits to referring to Zeta as "old lady" (she's said to be in her 30s) and calling her -- to her face -- "ugly" and "desperate."

So what was up with their meet-and-greet? A mole tells TMZ.com that Hilton recently bumped into Graff and was looking to "make nice."

Perhaps Paris is just following her own words of wisdom from her deposition, in which she said, "[I]f you are nice to someone, then they can't talk bad about you. Like, they'll feel bad saying mean things about you."

Or, say, suing you for millions and millions of dollars.

yup, the pic is photoshopped in so far that she is actually wearing
those jeans short much higher and more covering. plus her belly is
not that big in the original picture.

i can't remember if the cigarette is real or not though, i think it
was a lolly or something. can't remember.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

Paris is so getting on my nerves!... She should buy herself a brain and then, not to forget, use it! She's just getting worse and worse...
