My vote for a man who _really_ earns his paycheck is Eliot Mintz - Paris Hilton’s publicist/apologist. He is able utter phrases like:

“What I’ve observed is that we have three extraordinarily powerful women who generate a tremendous amount of attention, money, and adulation,” said Mintz. “And they’re tired of other people trying to ride on their coattails and creating false dramas.” (referring to the Unholy Three - Paris Hilton/Lindsay Lohan/Britney Spears)

with an apparently straight face.

Who else works hard for that money?

Yeah, when I think of “extraordinary power,” I think of Paris Hilton. 'Cause she can _get stuff done_.

As sad as it may be: if the three of them appeared in a movie together, and it was rated R for nudity, I would pay money to see it.
