Paris Loses $60M!!!!
July 30th 2007 05:52
Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!! That's gotta hurt. Paris Hilton is no longer our favourite heiress after her grandfather cut her out of his will!!!
It was looking like a good day for Paris when her grandfather, Barron Hilton sold the Hilton Hotel chain to the Blackstone Group for $26 Billion(US) earlier this month. A tidy sum that meant that Paris share of the inheritance was looking good.
However, so appalled is Barron at his granddaughters antics that he's cut her out of his will! Paris was set to inherit $60M (US) when her grandfather died. Barron hasn't been the proudest of granddaddy's when it comes to Paris. He was, allegedly, less than impressed with her sex-tape and wild antics. However, her jail sentence for her drink driving offences in June was the last straw.
According to Jerry Oppenheimer, who wrote the biography House of Hilton, "He was, and is, extremely embarrassed by how the Hilton name has been sullied by Paris." Oppenheimer believes that Barron doesn't want to leave any unearned wealth to his family.
Barron has said that he'll be donating the $2.4B that he will personally receive from the sale of the Hilton chain to the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation.
Luckily for Paris, I'm sure that her parents Kathy and Rick won't be cutting her out of their will, so it's likely that she'll eventually get her hands on a share of the Hilton fortune. Before you feel too bad for Paris though (cos we all feel terrible for her, I'm sure), remember that Paris is still independently wealthy. According to Forbes, Paris earnt $7M last year. Good thing too, now that she can't rely on grandpa's cash!!!
This is going to hurt Paris as much, or more, than her jail time did!! Good to see that there's someone in the Hilton clan that has some sense. It's a good thing Barron sold the Hilton chain. He wouldn't have wanted to have any of the Hilton family running it. He could have left the hotel chain to my cat, who would have run it better than Rick, Kathy, Paris and Nicky put together (though to be fair, he's a pretty smart cat!).
Wouldn't you want to be Nicky when Barron dies? I can see her running now taunting Paris with witty lines such as
Haha, even with your wonky eye you're still more attractive and interesting than me. But I just got $60M for doing nothing. Take that you attention-seeking bitch!!!
Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall of the Hilton house today?

P.S. i knda like Nicki, she was influenced a little bit by Paris but since maturing she really has stayed out of the limelight and gotten on with her business so I respect her for that. it would have been very easy for her to continue blindly following Paris.

Jon - supposedly Paris had eye surgery a few years ago and has been left with a droopy left eyelid. It's why she always tilts her head in photo's.
Bryn - yes, yes she does. Glad you like the pink. The Orble dudes funked up my site a bit...cos I'm useless!!!

Love the fuschia!
The funny thing is...Barron's father, Conrad Hilton (the founder of the Hilton chain) didn't leave anything to Barron (or his siblings) either!
He left it all to charity or something but Barron contested the will and won.
...however...Barron was very deserving of his right to his inheritance because he helped make the Hilton Hotel a luxury brand.
He worked very hard to achieve his success and he didn't have to film himself in flagrante...
I know this because...well, I just do. I interviewed someone once who knew a lot about the hotel tycoons.
Doesn't Paris have 2 or 3 brothers as well?
...and I had never noticed her wonky eye! It's really obvious in that first pic.
Have a great night Kylie...

And serves the silly woman right.
I love the word "sullied". It's so appropriate.

Hehe. She does have a wonky eye, doesn't she?
Wow, paris has 2 or 3 brothers?
I've seen her sex tapes. She's really gotta stop letting herself get filmed. Unless she doesn't mind it?

Paris? I'm sure it's just a stunt by the old man to kick her arse and make her grow up.
Little does he know that she doesn't know how to grow up!

PS Never noticed her wonky eye before ... now I'm going to be looking for it every time I see

And yes, Paris does have 2 younger brothers....you never hear about them.
Chic - yeah, once you know about the eye it's quite obvious. I lvoe that she even posed for her mugshot in a way to minimise it.....for gods sake!!!
Dean - yes, she needs to have her boyfriends keep the video camera away from her. Besides her sex tape was the most boring thing I've seen. Terrible!!!
Andrea - now that you know about it, you'll notice it in all her mugshots...I mean, photos!!!

Yeah once it's pointed out, you can't miss it! I've just read that Paris is expected to earn a total of about $20 million this year alone.......that irritates me. So I'm glad she's not getting anything from her grandfather!

I love what you've done to the place!
I think it's all a big publcity stunt, created in order for a chance at a private life. I think she had an epiphany in prison on a "way out" of the paparazzi nightmare she must live..
Now that she is reduced to a mere few million, maybe people will loose interest in her?

It's true, she doesn't need the money. She's poised to make a fortune this year.
And she doesnt want a personal life. By all accounts, Paris calls the paparazzi to let them know where she'll be. At least that's what I like about Paris. She doesn't pretend that she hates the attention. She loves it.

Oh, I get it. Sorry, brain dead today! I was wondering how you could possibly think Paris could survive without attention?? I'm not sure Paris even exists if there's not a photographer to document it!!!

Did I sound a little hysterical then...sorry...because I'VE GOT A WONKY EYE...OK....EVERYONE...HMMmmm m?
I might write to Barron...or is that Barren...what were his parents thinking when they named him I wonder...
anyhoo...the old bastard will come around, Paris will SLIDE onto his lap and wiggle and giggle and in no time he will be writing out cheques.....
...but I've got a wonky eye and I need 60 MILLION to get an eye patch, and a limmo with dark glass so no one will see my WONKY EYE!!!
ok...but what the opportunity missed...
they could have donated all the Hilton Chain to charity, to house the homeless around the world, and re-titled it The Hobo Hilton!!!!
