Was Paris Hilton Born to Act?

Maybe Paris Hilton will make it as an actress after all – if her family tree has anything to do with it.
Paris' Family Tree
It turns out that she's got an Oscar winner, Elizabeth Taylor, for a great aunt, and a famous screen siren, Zsa Zsa Gabor, for a step-great-grandma. Taylor was married to Conrad "Nicky" Hilton (her first of eight), who is Paris' father Rick's oldest uncle. And that makes Liz Taylor Paris' great-aunt --at least for the year Liz and Nicky were married.

Zsa Zsa, now 89, was married to Paris' great-grandfather Conrad Hilton, Sr., who founded the Hilton hotel chain that keeps Paris in diamonds and Bentleys. Though Zsa Zsa is not directly related to Paris, that makes her Paris' step-great-grandmother. Let's that Paris emulates the acting chops of her famous pseudo-forbears – and not the multiple-marriage and cop-slapping antics that made their later careers notorious.

Paris' mom, Kathy, appeared in the 60s TV show, "Family Affair," and in "Happy Days." Paris could take after her mom's siblings, Kim and Kyle Richards, who were both professional actors with less than distinguished careers. Ever heard of them? Neither have we. Look for Paris in "The Hottie and the Nottie" later this year.

62. Paris sure wasn't born to act - thats laughable. But Kim i think was the one from Return From Witch Mountain and Kyle was in many episodes of Little House On The Prairie- I agree w/ previous poster,, how the heck does that mean that Paris is born to act JUST b/c 2 of her Aunts did a few times,,,lol

63. If money can't buy class, it probably can't buy talent either, so I'd say Paris is out of luck. Even having famous step-relatives can make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.

64. Um, Kim Richards was "Tia" in the "Escape to Witch Mountain". I would imagine there are a LOT of guys around the age of 35 to 40 that had a HUGE crush on her at that time. So, yea, I remember her anyway...

65. I think Paris Hilton is idiotic and nothing but a blonde air head. I actually liked her until I saw what she did to Lindsey Lohan. She is inmature and worthless.

66. THE ONLY THING PARIS IS GOOD AT IS F*CKING...SHE IS THE BIGGEST WHORE IN HOLLYWOOD...

67. If Paris wants to act,let her act.
The proof is in the pudding and her chances are as good as anyone else's.

Look at all the films that bombed recently with really well-known actors. A lot depends on the script and the director.

As I recall, Paris said she has a whole lot of movies lined up,so let her have fun with it.

If she acts like she pulls in money, she'll do alright.
Never underestimate Paris Hilton.

68. Dear Paris,

You are my favorite actress.
You have millions of loyal fans.
I look forward to seeing the Hottie and The Nottie.
When are you going to start working on The Simple Life 5?
I enjoy watching The Simple Life 1-4 over and over and over and over and over and over again.
You are great!

69. TMZ is really stretching it.

If this were the 50s maybe you could say she was born to marry an actor

but these days maybe she was just is born to give actors herpes

70. Paris' grandpa used to own the San Diego Chargers as well. Just another fun fact with no point...maybe you win money on a game show with it some day.

71. She obviously can act considering the way she uses the media to her advantage. She sucks but she knows what she is doing.

72. Acting and Paris does not belong in the same sentence, she's a talentless hack.

73. OMG.. who cannot remember kim richards????? she was in nanny & the professor & also the escape to witch mountain disney flicks.. Paris only wish she had half the talent of her aunt kim.

74. Paris Hilton is too ugly, mean hearted, jealous and stupid to ever be a good actress. She has no figure and I believe it is all the throwing up she does and apparently teaches her used up BFF to do it also (Nicole, Lindsey, etc.). She just uses people and then throws them away and tries to ruin them when they are not her BFF because she is so jealous and mean hearted. Why anyone thinks that she is anything besides a long nose ugly bitch is beyond me.

75. look paris if you or your friends read this, We (public outside of your little world) know you are hot and rich. Just shut up!!! you are good to look at but really dumb. You have saturated yourself into the communication/advertising network of the world. I think the reason people are so interested in you is that we are waiting for you to fall more. Take your money that you are trying to make and run. It isn't like you need it. Go away and make a productive life whitch you can afford. Make a better life for others. Doesn't it bother you that you are famous for your family and sex movie than anything else????
