166. I emailed nbc yesterday too, I guess it worked. hilton's do you now know how much your daughter is hated??

Posted at 2:26AM on Jun 23rd 2007 by all your money on pr was wasted, hahahahahah

167. #138 Annia, overexposed I'd say. Once I have seen a picture of someone on the john I consider them overexposed, all the mystique IS gone.

Posted at 2:34AM on Jun 23rd 2007 by parasite, why are worried about someone seeing you on the toilet now? We have all already seen it

168. Great news. Finally the Networks, are getting the picture. Paris Hilton getting out of Jail, is not News worthy enough to pay a hefty $1 million price tag. Besides, do the Hiltons have anything interesting and intelligent enough to say for me to give up 20 or 30 minutes of my time. I do have more interesting things to do in my life. Hey Hiltons, especially Paris, get a life, A DECENT ONE, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!

169. Good News, really good news. NBC, ABC, and even CBS finally got the picture. Paris Hilton getting out of jail, is not news worthy enough to pay a $1 million for her first post-jail interview. Besides, who is going to listen to this dumb blonde, wearing hair extensions, and blue contacts, who does nothing better than getting drunk, while driving (hey I have 2 beautiful kids, and you could have run us down, that evening, you airhead) , partying, and prancing around in her expensive, obscene clothes and jewelry. Really, Barbara, shame on you too for even telling America, that the major newsnetworks, were remotely interested in paying Ms. Hilton dollars for her first post-jail interview. Decent America, will not be watching that interview, if it ever aired.. Yawn!! I do have more interesting things to do in my life. The Hiltons are just so boring and trashy. Can we move on to more important and interesting subjects, like the nuclear threats posed by both Iran and N.Korea, or Bird Flu, or Bringing our troops home from Iraq, or Biofuel. Come on Hiltons, especially Paris, get a life, A DECENT ONE , PLEASE. and DISAPPEAR!!!!!!!

172. NBC has redeemed itself, slightly, to its 2 or 3 viewers. Let's get on with an investigation of Mr. & Mrs. Rocky Delgdillo, city atty., of L.A.,Ca.

173. I'm game, scrolling through anything Hilton for a week or so
,or maybe forever, would defuse this family faster then anything - so go ahead and LOOK but do not respond - be strong (I know how hard it will be - they are so irritating). But if this helps in removing her name and face from public viewing it certainly will be worth it. So color me done ----- buh by ---- whatever your name is.............................................

Posted at 9:28AM on Jun 23rd 2007 by no more hits on anything about the Hiltons

174. To #164-John Kattt - This has nothing to do with NBC's lack of gall; this is a non-news story, stale as two-week old bread. So there.

175. No one should be paid, least of all Paris. This would of been bad, and I for one sent NBC an email saying so. Why should Paris, a rich person be paid for an interview???? A rich person who broke the law??? Give me a break. I for one would not of watch the damn thing anyway. I for one am glad they pulled the plug on this idea.

Posted at 11:03AM on Jun 23rd 2007 by Glad they ended it

176.

I wonder.....do any of you think she will take ALL those pictures of herself down that she has in EVERY room in her house?? hahahhahahahahaa....

Her narcissism has not GONE, Neither has any of her mental illnesses...They don't JUST go away.

And to the Brahim person....Your post was very good....excellant in fact. Those of us from OLD money, and educated in more ways then just spending it understand exactly !!

179. Paris Hilton isn't going to do ANY interviews. Come on, does she really want to talk about that stint in prison? And why would any network want to pay $1 million or more to do a post-release interview? I thought the whole buildup about it the past two days was ridiculous! Is NBC so desperate to boost its low ratings just to have this interview on Dateline, with Meredith Viera on TODAY or any other show? I'm sure she wants to head straight home on Tuesday and not talk with any media or TV reporters. She's going to talk to NOBODY! I don't think she's worth a million dollars for an interview. She's hardly done much, except for some sex tape that did well for adult audiences a few lines in a horror movie and one music album that didn't perform so well. All she does is pose in front of cameras and parties at nightclubs. Does this woman ever WORK? And Paris needs to live on her own and not be near her parents so much. Rick and Kathy Hilton get too cuddly close to Paris that it's becoming annoying. I think the Rick and Kathy are just mugging the cameras for attention to boast about Paris' privileged and entitled life. Lastly, does Paris think that a few weeks in prison will change her? It took me 4 to 5 years to wear my dress suits and dress shirts better and having them altered right after wearing them sloppy and uneven. One minor glitch in your life doesn't change you in a minute. It takes months, days, maybe years! What if she goes back to that full blown, decadent lifestyle and heads to Pure nightclub or Palms in Las Vegas two nights after Tuesday? Then what? She needs to back up her words that she'll change her life and PROVE IT! Don't lie to us!!!!!!!!!

180. I think ANY MONEY she makes doing anything from here time in Jail should ALL be donated to MADD = Mothers Against Drunk Driving come on MADD and others lets put the presure that this kind of behavior is NOT GOOD. Its not like she needs the money or should be given any money for her sad story of what went on in JAIL give me a break , PAIRS DO WHATS RIGHT!! Time to grow up get a real JOB and do some good for SOCIETY, not party buy clothes and cry when u get caught in the wrong.
