Paris Shows Oprah How It's Done

Click here to return to TMZ.comThe season premiere of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" started out with a bang... er... well, a rich person having a hard time doing a simple everyday task.

To open the show, Oprah and her BFF Gayle King embarked on a cross-country road trip surprising unsuspecting Americans by dropping in unannounced at weddings and other events. The toughest part of the trip for Oprah however wasn't the road itself, but at the gas station. The Queen of TV had to be helped out as she fumbled with the pump, saying "I haven't pumped gas since 1983."

Lucky for her, someone came to her rescue and demonstrated the proper technique for fueling your car. We aren't the only ones laughing as Oprah realized how silly the task was and said "I feel kind of stupid not being able to pump gas, but I thought, well maybe they've changed the pumps since I've last pumped."

On the other side of the United States, Paris Hilton showed Oprah how it's done. Paris proved she's the pro at the pump-- one-handed, in high-heels and talking on the phone.

3. Uh, isn't it considered unsafe to be on your cell phone while pumping gas? There are warning stickers on every pump!

4. Paris....never pump gas and talk on the cell. You can blow the whole place up.

6. um hey *lovinparis* i'm really curious as to what we "jealous haters" are suppose to be jealous of. i'm a 6'1 blonde (natural) with blue eyes (natural), right there i have named three things that make me looks wise supperior to paris, on top of that i am also what is considered a "blonde bombshell w/brains" again something else paris is not!!!!! oh wait do you think that i'm jealous of her money....again no not really....yea i might no be a millionair heiress but i do work for everything i have and am able to appreciate everything god has given me!!!! i honestly don't believe that paris even knows the meaning of the word appreciate!!! plus she's a dumb whore for not seeing the 50 signs around the gas station that state the dangers of using a cell phone at a gas station, although i do give her credit for knowing how to pump gas!!!! its really sad that you, lovinparis, are a die hard fan of someone that has done nothing better in life than give todays youth a bad name!!!!!

8. It's really too bad that Paris didn't blow up while she talked and pumped at the same time. She would have done the world a service by highlighting how dangerous it is to do both at the same time. But, TMZ would have been extremely disappointed since they make their paycheks off of her.

9. It's been proven by scientist that being on the phone at a gas station does not cause explosions.

Just wanted to throw that in there.

10. Looks like no one is in interested in you, Sadie. And you will stay Sad for the rest of you're like, because you won't be famous, dear. You're probably not even as pretty, cute and fun as Paris.

Honey, the fact is that everything you say about Paris is ASSUMED.

Paris is appreciated everything, because she makes money by herself and doesn't take free money from her parents like most heirs and heiresses do.

11. I HIGHLY agree with Sadie.

And it was funny to see Oprah in such a different light.

Its amazing to kno those 2 (oprah and gayle) are BFF even tho theyre so different.

i would love to see Paris get blown up for using a cell in a gas station what a flaming idiotic bitch.

hang in there ppl shes gonna get whats coming to her soon.

and lovinparis....go suck dick

12. *lovinparis* i just knew that i was going to get a dumb ass comment fired back at me from you and just wanted to say thank you for wasting your time and i hope you and paris will live happily ever after in that big prada bag in the sky. save your beath, paris really isn't worth it!!!!

13. Lovinparis, I hate to inform you of this but Paris is in fact, a dumb whore.

This isn't just assumed, it's a substantiated fact backed up by empirical data. Paris is a whore, and the fact that she is really stupid makes her a dumb whore.

Even a dumbass could see that. You are a dumbass aren't you?

14. Calling Paris a pro didn't show smarts or common sense on your part... Most AVERAGE people know you DONT talk on a cell phone while pumping gas, unless you have a death wish.

15. is paris the only one who doesn't know about the cell phone/potentional gas pump explosion thing? what a retard.

seriously, sometimes i think its just an act, but then you see stupid shit like this and it solidifies the harsh truth - she's just a spoiled retard...
