Paris An Idol?

Click to watch Paris Hilton! The eldest Hilton sister and her mother Kathy were both sighted at The Hollywood Museum the other day. Of course, they weren't there trying to soak up anything intellectual, instead they were being honored as 'Idols of Gay Hollywood.'

Since the two were the Grand Marshalls of LA Gay Pride last year, the outfits they wore will be included in an exhibit on the gay pride movement, along with those of other gay icons like Judy Garland, Barbra Streisand, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, Bette Davis, and Joan Crawford.



When asked why the gay community has embraced her, Hilton responds, 'I think because I'm free-spirited, I'm real, I like to have fun, I enjoy life and I think that's what's the gay community's about, they enjoy life, have fun and I'm just honored to be a part of this with so many wonderful women, like Marilyn Monroe.'

It's possible we won't be seeing as much of Paris this summer stateside, as she said she's getting ready to tour Europe with her new music. Hilton just released her first single, 'Stars are Blind,' last week with a full album coming out later this year.

46. What do you mean she's not using her money for anything illegal or bad? Did you see that footage of her smoking that joint in public recently? Or the old ones? And I would bet that's not all she does. I'm sure she rolls her own tobacco cigarettes...haha! And she got famous off of her FAMILY'S name and THEIR money, not from making her own. She spreads disease, her "singing" is done by a computer, and is absolutely nothing to enjoy or admire. ALl the peroxide, colored contacts, and subtle plastic surgery can not make you beautiful if you are so hate-filled and ugly on the inside.

50. Well if I was heir to the hilton fortune, why shouldnt i have fun and do all the jetsetting. She is nobody to idolize per say, idols have done something meaningful with thier lives and i see she has done neither. And I dont think she is an idol to the gay community, what has she done for it. And if any of us had as many hit and runs as she has we wouldnt be free to talk about it.

51. ::Shakeshead:: Paris is not some one to look up to. I mean, seriously, she acts like a godd**mned whore. I mean, I don't know her personaly, but by the way people talk about her she seems like a bitch. ::shrugs:: I donno, she could be okay, but to me she is, and always will be, a whore.

53. If she were my child I would be embarrassed. Yes she is making "more" money like she needs it but at what cost? If her family doesn't openly admit they are embarrased by her actions then I would hope they are discussing it behind closed doors and trying to find her a good shrink.

54. Confused Us once say...."IF PARIS FALLS DOWN IN A HOTEL ROOM, AND NO ONE IS THERE TO SCREW HER, DOES SHE MAKE A VIDEO?" Oh great and wise Confuse US. Razzle Dazzle us with your wisdom. yeah sure I'd love to be a rich and useless slut and smoking the good @#it all night long in a closet full of gorgeous (allbeit size like...24 in her case) shoes, but I still don't like Paris Hilton.. Maybe I will when she gets older and stops acting like stupid is a trend. I gives a crap if she wanders around the world running into Hondas and pedestrians. I just could do without seeing her on TV. How am i supposed to get any useless celebrity gossip with HER taking up all the space?!

55. btw. i'm red hot and super sexy and soooo not jealous of her. Especially since i saw the infamous "sex tape" and I'm a jillion times better in bed than her. But she does have nicely toned legs for a noodle. LOL! I love this stuff!

58. I like Paris because she is fun, free,cares about animals, and doesn't care of what people say about her. She is living the way she wants to live and nobody can stop her from doing so. If you would just read her book it would change the way you think about her. Also, quite lying about her.

59. The allure of Paris Hilton escapes me. She isn't very good looking, her body isn't impressive(let's face it she is just skinny), she isn't particularly bright, is an exhibitionist and a rotten role model. Yet time after time she is paid real money just to show up. Christ, she made $6 mill. last year. PT Barnum shows his genius again when he said, "you will never go poor underestimating the intelligence of the American people." She has to be an alien. Gotta be, how else could FHM rate her sexier than Heidi Klum, Salma Hayek, Kelly Brook, ...you get the picture. I am thinking she is just enjoying her elongated 15 minutes and some day the same people helping her earn a great living by just showing up are going to turn on her and laugh her down to the F List where she belongs.

60. If it werent for her mommy and daddy, she wouldnt have any $$$$$ or bling!!!! Hell, I doubt we would have even known who she was. As far as people slaming her and calling her a slut -- SHE DID THAT TO HERSELF with the sex tape. You know that old saying - you made the bed - now sleep in it. So, defend her if you want, but personally I dont see where her talent is. And if you dont like hearing peoples opinions and celebs getting slammed every once in a while - then stop reading the comments. After all we are all entitled to our opinions - or is yours the only one that counts?????????????? I didnt think so.
