Damn, that’s disgusting. Also the funniest thing I’ve read in a long time.
Say AHHHHH, Paris!
:o Ahhhhhhh…
Actually, you’re wrong about that.
Put me down for some hate and revulsion.
Because the public is fascinated with the bad behavior of the jet set. And she comes pretty close to epitomizing it.
I think I’ve seen ONE photo of her where she was actually attractive-she was dressed rather conservatively in a stunning navy blue cocktail dress, her hair was fixed very simply, very little make up.
The rest of the time, she’s got ORANGE skin, caked on make up, and some outfit Barbie-esque outfit. She looks like someone’s Maibu Skipper doll after you left it outside over night during a thunderstorm.
Just in time for the holidays, you can get the Malibu Skipper Goes Down Movie for only $5.99 additional! Operators are kneeling by.
I wouldn’t bang that bacterial gash with a ten foot pole on which someone else’s dong had been affixed.
I love the girl.
It isn’t because she’s particularly talented (I’ve seen the video, I am not entirely convinced she does THAT well), it’ not because she’s incredibly beautiful (I am attracted to her in a primal sort of way), and it’s certainly not because I think there is a heart of gold underneath the exterior she puts up (there may very well be one but I’m not going to bank on it).
I love her for two reasons. The first one is that she was thrust into the public eye, somehow or another, years ago. She has since used that for all it’s worth to make some money of her own. The other reason I like her is that she does not give two shits about what anyone else thinks about her. I’ve never been like that and I totally respect it.
She makes (presumably) a buttload of money playing herself!!
I guess some people like feeling smart, and the only way they can do that is to compare themselves to Miss Hilton. That’s the only justification I can think of for why the great unwashed masses [supposedly] love her.
mmm…bacterial gash…
Okay, the question is, why is Paris Hilton (who’s not an actress, who’s not a singer, who’s not an author, who’s never really DONE anything interesting or important) a celebrity in the first place?
It comes down to this: there are more entertainment-oriented media than ever before, and there just aren’t enough REAL stars to supply these media with interesting stories. So, the entertainment media have no choice but to CREATE celebrities. Paris Hilton is one such created celeb.
I mean, People, the Star, the Enquirer, Us, “Entertainment Tonight” and the E network have lots of pages and lots of airtime to fill. They want to fill those pages and that airtime with scenes of Beautiful People living the Glamorous Life. They want pictures and footage of stars dancing at trendy discos and frolicking topless on the Riviera. But they have a problem: Genuine stars usually don’t live the Glamorous Life!
Tom Hanks is probably the biggest star in Hollywood. Ron Howard and Steven Spielberg are probably the biggest directors in Hollywood. John Grisham is probably the most successful novelist in America. Bruce Springsteen is one of the biggest stars in music.
So… quick, when’s the last time you saw any of those guys in the tablioids or on “Entertainment Tonight”? Oh, they may do brief “ET” interviews when they have a new project to plug, but otherwise? These genuine superstars live mundane, unexciting lives! They don’t sunbathe nude at Cannes. They don’t dance til dawn at trendy L.A. nightclubs. They just don’t do the kind of glamorous, exciting things that paparrazzi want to take pictures of.
So, since REAL celebs won’t live the glamorous lives the paparrazzi and the entertainment media want to depict, well, they just MAKE celebrities of the people who DO go to chic discos and who DO frolic nude on the Riviera.
Given a choice between a picture of, say Denzel Washington (a real star) mowing his lawn and a picture of Grace Jones (a nobody) striking wicked poses at a disco, which do you think photographers would go for?
Given a choice between a picture of Meryl Streep (a genuine star) walking to church with her daughter and a shot of Bijou Phillips (a nobody) sunbathing nekkid by her pool, which do you think “ET” would find more worthy of airtime?
Frankenhooker!
Wouldn’t you just love to see the parts department at her plastic surgeon’s? All the tanks full of the rest of the pretty girls?
Like many others in this thread, I don’t think people do love Paris Hilton. I’m sure there are those that like her, but in general I’d consider her Exhibit A in the case showing that the mass media doesn’t actually care what the people want. What little demand there is for news of Miss Hilton’s antics has been created by the gossip columns. If they suddenly decided to ignore her, I doubt anyone else would be sorry.
The real question is why Miss Hilton gets so much attention in the first place. I think it’s because she’s a perfect pseudoevent made flesh. It’s long been said of various celebrities that they’re famous for being so well-known, but can you think of a single one who has done less than Paris Hilton? Okay, she’s been on a “reality” TV show…on FOX…but even that position was one that came to her because she was already THE Paris Hilton. She hasn’t really got anything going for her except rich parents. Now, why the spotlight shone down upon her instead of some other talentless young heiress I don’t know; perhaps she was just the best raw material available.
Golly, Astorian, I thought you could do better than just repeat, although not quite word for word, a post from a previous thread:
Because she’s so easy to love? No, no because she’s so easy. Love, sex-- I’m always mixing those two up.
I really think you guys have a hard time disassociating your feelings for her as a person from your appraisals of her looks. Any sane person can admit she is an attractive person. She may not be your cup of tea, but there is a reason she has been modeling for years. Can you honestly tell me the girl in these pictures is ugly? If she is ugly, then I need to start hanging out with you guys? I would love to see what the women in your lives look like (or what you look like if you’re a woman).
You guys need to be serious. She is a good looking girl anyway you slice it. She may be dumb as a bag of rocks. She may be a parasite who has no redeeming qualities, but ugly she is not.
Looks a lot like Skeletor in that one.
Grace Jones is NOT a nobody. She is one of the six women fated to soon show up on my doorstep, offer me millions, and then oil up and wrestle to determin who will have the honor being the first to love me.
Well, then call me insane.
I think she is UGLY.
Now I have nothing against ugly people, hell, I am one, but the whole attitude…
I wouldn’t piss on her if she was on fire.
Any attractive cock ornament can be rendered ugly by vanity, stupidity, or arrogance. Giftwrap a cumdumpster, and it’s still a cumdumpster.
