My Shameful Paris Hilton Secret

September 11th 2006 01:47
I have to admit a somewhat shameful secret to you all. I don’t want to, but I feel that I have to. You see, the thing is. I LOVE Paris Hilton. I know she’s wrong. She’s trashy, she’s tarty, I’m not sure she’s all that smart, she dresses badly, she behaves badly, and just last week, she was arrested for allegedly driving while under the influence of alcohol. In truth there’s not all that much about Paris that is appealing. And yet, I really like her.

I know you probably don’t like Paris. And that’s cool. But at least hear me out before you vilify me.

Paris is an heiress. Her only noteworthy achievement is that she was born into the Hilton Dynasty. And let’s face it, it’s not like she had any part in that achievement. But, if we’re being honest, she doesn’t have to do anything. Even if she sits at home 24/7, she still stands to inherit a very large chunk of cash someday. Certainly, it’s enough to keep her going without having to work a day in her life.


Yet, strangely enough, despite the inheritance that is coming her way, Paris is out there working on building her own fortune. According to Forbes, Paris earned approximately $7M last year all on her own. This is cash she earned from her Simple Life show, her public appearances, singing and whatever else she does to bring in the cash.

Now, I don’t know about you. But I’m pretty smart. And I’m a hard worker. But I can tell you, that I didn’t earn anything like $7M last year.

So, why do I admire Paris? Because, by all accounts this stupid, self-centred, self-obsessed, famous just for being famous socialite should be sitting on her too-thin backside doing nothing but shopping while she waits for that inheritance to come her way. But she’s not. She’s shamelessly promoting her product (herself) and building her own (admittedly, somewhat shallow) empire. And even if you hate her, you’ve got to at least admire that.
