Who or what the hell is a "Paris Hilton"?

'cause I'm pretty sure its not a hotel...

I've been getting spams for the "Paris Hilton Video", and I've at least figured out its not a promotional tape for a French vacation spot.

Wow!, You've managed to avoid learning about her longer than me!

Daughter or grandaughter(I'm not sure which, I try not to pay to much attention) of the hotel magnate. Basically, she and her sister nikki are two spoiled little rich girls who are doing their best to spend all that money. They like to hob nob with the hollywood crowd and go to all the parties. they wear obscene amounts of expensive jewelry, and Paris has apparently been promiscuous on tape, 'cause there was a big scandal about her being in some porno film a few weeks ago.

Paris is the name of a girl. She did a home porno with an ex boyfriend a couple of years ago and he did the "dishonorable" thing of letting it get out.

yeah. "letting" it get out. shortly before she is due to have an album where she is trying her voice at a singing career. hmm.... what "coincidental" timing if you ask me.

Gotta love the press, eh?

I didn't know she could sing. Oh I forgot. You don't need to have a good voice. Just ask Brittney. LOL

She's the heiress to the hotel fortune. In addition to wearing lots of expensive jewelry and slutty clothes, she and her sister are going to be in a new reality show where they wind up doing ordinary people jobs, just to show how weirded out there are by doing the demeaning things that other people do to make an honest living: artificially inseminating cows, wearing foam hot dog suits for a fast-food joint, that sort of thing.

It's bad enough that people are obscenely rich and rub in it people's faces, but now they have to be famous, on TV and get paid even more for it, while simultaneously (in effect) mocking people who have to work for a living. Sort of like the TV programmers' equivalent of the Wall Street Journal editorial page editors calling people who are poor "Lucky duckies" because they don't make enough money to pay taxes (while living week-to-week on skimpy paychecks and having to scrape to get their kids Xmas presents).

Cue Nero's fiddle.

Amen. You managed to put into words what I'd been feeling about this show.
