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."

93. Paris shows the world that all you need is beauty and a lot of money, and you can be famous and look like a bobble head doll. Am I jealous? yes... I'm jealous for the truly talented people in the world that don't get a chance because they don't have looks or money.
Paris prove me wrong, write and compose all your own music on your next CD. Get a good acting role in movie, and not some stupid dumb blonde reality show.
And please try not to be some closet porn queen, you're boring to watch.

96. After reading several comments, I couldn't help but wonder why AOL hasn't made a screening of the comments. You must realize that most of the people that have written comments so far are either illiterate or just plain stupid...typos don't count because you should proof read anything you write. Maybe you should all be put in for a Record of most retarded bunch of "commentators". And btw why attack Paris for what she's done. Is it because you could never dream of or be capable of doing half of what she's done?

97. Hmmm, I am surprised she wasn't up for World's Worst BJ? Didn't any of the Guiness people see the video.

98. I think for one , most of us don't know her personally. 2. no matter what she has done or said, she is one of the richest girls in the world. So she has made it, and I don't think she has hurt alot of people along the way to get where she is going. I say more power to you, I wish I could have been in that situation and ended up a millonaire, Anyone who can become a millonaire has to have some brains etc...

99. the woman is a dog,really she is ugly as sin.is this because she is rich

100. Paris........Rich, beautiful, smart, sexy, and fun......

I see a lot of haters on here. You all are jealous losers who probably are in debt to your ears in bills, can't afford nice vactions or clothing leet alone homes and cars, and are probably over weight and ugly to boot.

I doubt anyone posting ugly remarks about Paris could actually stand next to her and be noticed even in Africa where no one knows who she is.

The fact remains: She is prettier then you, has a better body, better clothes, better make-up, hair, cars, homes, and way more money!

So don't thow stones at your small glass house!

101. Paris Hilton is a nauseating piece of work. She desperately needs a NOSE JOB. Dunk her big head into the ocean or a lake and see how many fish that hook on the end of her nose catches. She thinks she's all that and a bag of chips... but she's a celebrity slut and the world knows it. She sleeps around and it shows.
Anyhow, after she let her boy-bitch Brandon Davis make nasty comments about a real person, namely Lindsay Lohen, her laughter over his comments has caused me to dislike her even more. America is sick of you, Paris Hilton...and so am I

102. What is it she does?
Does she have some kind of talent other than spending money?

Posted at 3:28PM on Aug 16th 2006 by Michael

103. She can add this to her "Biggest Douche in the Universe" award to her resume.......

104. It seems awfully strange that all you people have such strong personal feelings about her... has she done anything to you to make you hate her? why get so fired up about someone you don't know? it's responses like yours that feed into the ridiculous gossip magazines and such.

105. Paris Hilton .....If ever I had a tough letter to write, this is it. My challenge is to convince you that Ms. Paris Hilton has become a patsy to her own malevolence. Let me begin by saying that Paris Hilton talks a lot about emotionalism and how wonderful it is. However, she's never actually defined what it means. How can she argue for something she's never defined? To turn that question around, why do we put up with her? Well, I'm sure Paris Hilton would rather make our lives miserable than answer that particular question. She doesn't want us to know about her plans to destabilize society. Otherwise, we might do something about that.

I must emphasize this because in asserting that I'm too pesky to guide the world into an age of peace, justice, and solidarity, she demonstrates an astounding narrowness of vision. Is there a chance that Paris Hilton isn't high-handed, brutish, and impractical? From what I've seen, I doubt it. And what about her subalterns? They, like Paris Hilton, are what I call uncivilized clodpolls.

Paris Hilton attributes the most distorted, bizarre, and ludicrous "meanings" to ordinary personality charcteristics. For example, if you're shy, she calls you "fearful and withdrawn". If, instead, you're the outgoing and active type, Paris Hilton says you're "acting out due to trauma". Why does she say such things? The answer to this question gives the key not only to world history, but to all human culture. My message is clear: Our battle with her is a battle between spiritualism and extremism, between tradition and subversion, between the defenders of Western civilization and its enemies. With the battle lines drawn as such, it is abundantly clear that Paris Hilton would have us believe that the federal government should take more and more of our hard-earned money and more and more of our hard-won rights. Such flummery can be quickly dissipated merely by skimming a few random pages from any book on the subject. You've heard me say that her deputies are all wily trolls. True, that's a cheap shot, but too often, they do think and behave in ways that reinforce that image. One final point: It is an actuarial certainty that Ms. Paris Hilton will waffle on all the issues by the end of the decade
