Paris Hilton, World Record Winner

Paris HiltonMs. Hilton has made it into the 2007 Guinness Book of World Records, but it may not be for a reason she'd particularly enjoy. While Britney Spears or Tom Cruise were probably somewhere close behind, Paris takes the crown for our favorite record ever -- Most Overrated Person.

A spokesperson for the book says it took its info from a number of magazine polls. Readers voted on their least favorite and most overrated celebrity and Hilton's name kept coming up on top.

Other celebrities to make it to Guinness this year include Madonna with the highest earnings for a female singer in 2004 and The Rock for being the highest paid actor in a debut role for "The Scorpion King."

451. Wow, Berta, I COMPLETELY agree with you! You hit it right on the money. You couldn't have said it any better about Britney Spears. Britney use to have some respect and now she's just trash. She's awful and a fake. BUt you gotta realize, she's got the intelligence of a mut. She is really, really stupid. I think she is more dull headed than Paris. Spears is so disgusting. I was never into her before, but now that I look at her, I am so glad that I never supported her. Maybe she was lonely and that's why she hooked up with Kevin. I have no idea. At that age, I remember in my early 20s, I had a strong urge to have a baby and lots of 'em. They say your biological clock hits at 30, but I think amongst the new generation it's hitting at a younger age.

I got a puppy instead, 4 of them to be exact, and that completely changed my perspective on having children. I am so glad I waited. It may sound funny to get a puppy, but it really works! So if you have any kids that wanna have a baby early, go get 'em a puppy and make them raise it. They'll learn. When I got my first two puppies, they came down with pneumonia and it was the scariest thing in the world. I did everything, spent hundreds of dollars on vet bills, took them almost everyday to the vet when they were 3-4 months old at the slightest sneeze, and realized that children can wait! And training these puppies, especially as they get older and more mischevious! Whew! That's another huge step to go through, especially these small dogs that are harder to train.

ANYWAY, I digress.

452. I mean, I still might consider having sex with her if she offered, but she's agreeably overrated.

453. Paris Hilton Is The Biggest Whore, She Sleeps With Men Of All Ages, Has No Higher Then A Sixth Grade Education And Laughs About It, As Well As She Likes To Pee In The Corners At Night Clubs And She Likes To Do Rails Of Cocaine Off Toilet Seats, She Also Is Extremely Untalented Have You Heard Her CD It Sucks Dick More Then She Does, Not To Mention Her "Porno Video" Goodness Next Time You Tell The Court You Had No Idea You Where Being Filmed Make Sure Your Not Looking Directly Into The Camera Throughout The Whole Film, So They Know That Your A Fucking Liar, Your Daddys Money Can't Get You Out Of Everything, Just So Everyone Knows I Am Not Makeing This Shit Up I Heard All These Facts From Someone That Personaly Knows Her. She Is A No Good Piece Of Shit That Gets Pleasure Out Of Makeing Peoples Lives Horrible, If I Where Her Parents I Would Dis - Own Her, I Hope She Learns That The World Doesn't Revolve Around Her And To Keep Her Legs Shut!!

Peace Out!!

454. I love Paris Hilton. She is funny and sexy. She is so much more honest about herself than most of the other celebrity actors in the U.S. She knows who she is and what she is doing versus most actors that take themselves so seriously. Historically, actors are held in very low opinion. In comparison, she is better than the average celebrity actor.

455. Right On !! This is exactly what I've been telling my wife for years! This woman
has absolutely no social value whatsoever. Why in the world is she considered
a celebrity ?

456. Wow...alot of jealous people.

457. Okay, so she may not be the brightest person in the world. Woopdey shit. So she's made mistakes. Who hasn't? Hers are just highly publicized. So she may be a so-so singer/actor/whatever... who gives a damn? Chances are she's still better than you if you're reading this. She's a person like anyone else who just catches all hell for anything just because she's famous. So here's the real question, why does a highly respected, world famous intitution like Guiness pull a dick move like even making the record for most overrated person, then go and name someone famous (obviously) to it's 'winner?' The answer? Publicity. How can you possibly make a record for most overrated person? It's rediculous, doesn't sound like a record that could even be accurately determined anyway, and for lack of a better word, it's mean to the 'winner.' In my opinion, it's Guiness who should be criticized, not Paris.

458. P.S. Everyone bashing Paris should get a record for most arrogant group of people. It too doesn't make much sense like the record Paris has been awarded, and just by making your negative comments, you're making her better than you because you're sinking down to a rediculously low level, much lower than you take yourselves for.

460. This is all kind of funny, in a sad, wierd way. She makes a boatload of cash from all the media attention, gets paid for partying, her closet is probably bigger than my whole house. She dates different guys, and (gasp!) is intimate with them. She seems perfectly comfortable with the fact that she is naturally super thin, and her bod is basically proportioned. I read alot of comments about her nose, or beak as so many put it. I guess she could afford the plastic surgery... but hasn't had it.... maybe she actually LIKES her nose, and doesn't really care if others do or not. I don't know the girl personally, so I can't comment on her intelligence based on things I've read. I guess I don't understand why people are so negative about her, if she's happy with herself and the choices she's made who are we to judge? Granted everyone is entitled to their opinion, but damn take a deep breath, there's no need to say such hateful mean things. I neither like nor dislike her, she doesn't affect my life directly. I sure wouldn't mind having a fraction of her income, and would LOVE to check out her closet :)

462. Funny how everyone talks so much shit about her.....dont they realize they are making her even more famous? Besides, what has she done so wrong to receieve so much criticism? The sex tape? wow, big deal, she had sex like everyone else....except it was videotaped...she is not a bad person...and people sure are quick to judge before taking a good look at themselves, besides, how can you talk shit about someone you've never even met?! more power to her, for doing her thing.

463. I'd be embarressed to be her. I would hate to get all the fame for NOTHING, but have my DADDY give it all to me and not earn any of it. She's nothing but a 2 cent whore with nothing between her ears but a bunch of hot air. Can't ya'll hear it when she repeats that dumb ass phrase over and over again "That's HOT", it's all AIR. She deserves this title. Way to Go Guiness!!!
