Paris Ain't Perfect -- But Cut Her a Break

Harvey Levin, Elliot Mintz, and Paris HiltonParis Hilton has flaws -- lots of them. She has spoken ill of others, she is too deep into vanity for my taste, she arguably parties way too much, she's a really bad driver, and on and on. But does that mean she deserves to die?

I'm stunned by how many people react to Paris the way they react to Al Qaeda. By the way, TMZ has probably done it's share to make her life miserable. We put the Brandon Davis video out to the world, and the car crash, and the other car crash, and the dancing, and the PDA's, and... you get the point. But really? Comment #100? Calling her a "stupid, ugly slut." You can do better than that.

And # 76, calling her a "dumpster for semen." True, she made a sex tape. But honestly, so what? I can tell you this, Rick Soloman bought a $3.5 million house off that tape, but there's never been evidence that she got any money or had anything to do with releasing it. So she made a tape with some guy she was with, does that make her a whore?

I think there's lot of fair criticism in the Paris Hilton department. And she brings a lot of it on herself by creating the Paris marketing machine which, by the way, has been incredibly successful. But with success come lumps, and she deserves to take those lumps. But isn't there a difference between Paris Hilton and the shoe bomber? Just because they have shoes in common doesn't make them one.

1. She brought this ALL ON HERSELF. She is a slut, we have seen her private parts more than any other human, she picks up on other's men, she dresses like a slut. She is a pimple on the a** of the world and deserves every single comment she gets. When she talks of herself like she's the current princess of the world and she is just a skank, what does she expect people to say? Go back to the mudhole you crawled out of and don't come out.

2. agreed, she does put her self in the situation. It seems to me Harvey is trying to be all goody goody with the "hot" blonds in Hollywood, just like with Pam Andersen. Seems to be someone is losing his touch.

When a worthless, useless, nobody makes themselves into hot shit, like she really matters more than everyone else and should get treated special because her grandparents worked their asses off and she reaps all the benefits doesnt mean she is anything more than the stupid, dirty, sutter slut white piece of trash that she really is. All she can claim is to making money off of being stupid. How could ANYONE be proud off that?

3. I don’t feel the least bit sorry for her and I don’t think that makes me cruel or “sadistic”. She is a person who is over exposed by the media the least she can do is carry herself with grace and dignity. She comes from a very reputable family she doesn’t have to up tight and weird but doesn’t have to behave like a white trash with lots of money. I’m not quick to judge people but she recently claimed that she is a blonde icon comparing herself to the likes of Princess Diana. I think that is a horrible thing to say, Paris with her sex tape and being the punch line of every joke in society is nothing to be compared with any beautiful or iconic women anywhere. With her funny looking eyes and droopy nose she’s more horrific then iconic.

4. The reason why she is such "hot shit" is because all the envious ordinary people, that supposedly hate her, can't get enough of Miss Hilton. You know who you are, let's not deny it!

5. Paris is just plain nasty-anyway you look at it- we all know a girl like her-full of herself( come on- she called herself an icon like Marilyn Monroe-gimme a break!!!!) she thinks everyone wants her(which no guy that I have ever come in contact with would touch her w/ a ten foot pole), and she thinks money and fame is something that we should all envy her for. I do not envy her in the slightest, I will take my life over hers any day, any time. Paris is just NASTY!!!!

6. I have been watching Ms. Hilton for a while like all of you, she is not any worse nor any better than anyone else. Of course, she is much more privileged with money, fame, and a family that is recognizable by its name alone. However, let her be, her time in the sun will soon run out, believe me, there is always someone waiting around the corner.

7. Im starting to agree with the posters that think this is all some kind of publicity stunt. This writeup is kinda suggesting that we're being too hard on her....isn't she being to hard on us?? we don't her in our face everyday...did she stop and think of that? we don't want to hear that crappy song on the radio every 5 minutes, Id like to be able E! News again without seeing her stupid face in the whole 30 minutes, but I can't. Why?? Why should I let up? She hasn't done anything worthwhile to deserve all this airtime....

8. Of course we can't get enough of Miss Hilton. It reminds us that you don't have to be rich to have class and that you don't have to be poor to be trashy. Her sister carries class while Paris acts like trash.

10. I'm amazed you all care so much. I've met much worse people in pubs and hotel lobbies; or customers at various stores. Seriously. You all need to let her do what she wants.

So what if she can? Let her. She will, whether you want to or not. I don't see all of you going off on porn stars, 'cause trust me, I think we all know they make more sex videos in a month than she ever did.

Does she annoy you? So does the angry, annoying woman yelling at the cashier in front of you at a Wal-Mart. She's a bad driver? Ha. So is my cousin, not to mention my boss who ran into a parked car the other day.

Do I like her? No. Not at all. Do I dislike her? I'd be lying if I said I've never raised my eyebrows at her at any point, but no, I don't truly dislike her. I know the feeling, and it's very unpleasant, true hatredness. People need to think before they speak; society these days uses words and phrases like "slut", "drop dead", and "white trash" too lightly. While you all may be inclined to believe so, this is a person you're speaking about. Wow, if this much energy was spent on things that really matter...

Of course then you'd say, "Well, why are you wasting your time writing this, huh?" I saw this headline and I had to put my 2-cents in, yes, like the rest of you. But at least you could be logical about half of what you're saying, ya know? Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but be realistic, be reasonable. This is not a terrorist, or the Unibomber, a rapist or a serial killer. Stop talking of her as if she is.

People saying she's the "scum of the universe" and stuff. Listen. I've met, in my line of work and various encounters over my life, the real scum of the universe. Saying something like that about Paris Hilton is just, frankly, ignorant. I've met worse. You should too, and then maybe you people will see how ridiculous it is to barrage her with the hatred you do.

Oh, one last thing. Angry about her being a celebrity icon, and a blonde one at that? People with microphones falling all over themselves to talk to her and people like you and I have given her that status. People are still interested, and the world knows who she is, so...yeah. Guess what? She's a celebrity icon, and yes, a blonde one at that.

11. I choose to beleve that she has a good heart and is a good person. Throw rocks if you have never done anything wrong. Geez! You people sound so hateful and mean spirited. Must be sour grapes on your part. Leave her alone.

12. Harvey Levin knows he gets hits on his site if he puts anything Paris up. By the way, I hear that TMZ paparazzi Josh Levine and Harvey Levin are related. Has anyone else heard this?

14. I agree that Paris has her faults, what person doesn't? I went through my growing up/wild years in my twenties before I settled down to get married and have kids. College parties, bars etc. It was a learning experience and I don't think I would trade it for the world if I had to go back in time to do it over again. I wouldn't have learned those lessons if it werent for those "ugh, why did I do that" moments. lol She's young and I think Paris has a few more years of growing up to do before she realizes what is is she truly wants in life. I don't envy the magnifying glass she is under at all. I do admire her for taking those lumps and keeping her head up despite what negative things are said about her and especially through her bad caught on camera moments. Not everyone wishes ill of Paris. I just wish on her wisdom.

15. Paris is just a normal person, I don't understand why people judge her so harshly. So she can't drive so what alot of people can't its not a new thing. So she has a sex tape, yeah... think about it, how many people make tapes of them and their boyfriends or vice-versa, dude my mom even has one, hers didn't go public because of a sleezy scum bag ex but still. If she likes to party go a head party on and if she wants to dress to grab everyones attention so be it. I'm not holding that against her because EVERYONE makes mistakes and it you want to call her a whore, white trash, and slut that doesn't make you anybetter and imagine how you whould feel if it was you everyone was insulting (and paris makes 3.2million dollars a year by acting stupid and ditsy on purpose, tell me how many of you would act like that too for 3.2 million dollars, hell I WOULD!!!)
