Paris' Rwanda Run -- Not So Fast!

It was good while it almost lasted: Paris Hilton's first big stab at rehabbing her post-jail image -- a trip to Rwanda -- has been "postponed."

People reports that the would-be philanthrotante won't be going to the African nation, because the group she was going to work with, Playing for Good Foundation, is "restructuring," or so it said in a statement.

"Paris has been a loyal and gracious supporter of Playing for Good, but the foundation has to regrettably reschedule this trip," it said Thursday.

Hiltie was planning to travel to Africa in November to help raise awareness of child poverty. We contacted Paris' rep to find out whether she's still going to South Africa for that much hyped ex-con-ference with Nelson Mandela, but we haven't heard back.

91. Why would anyone use the words "Paris Hilton" and "Work" in the same story. You know she doesn't work , she has people to do what ever that is.

92. Paris isn't going because she found out that this sudden need to "give back" wasn't going to make one bit of difference in how people see her. She found out that she is and always will be considered a tabloid fool. She pretty much sealed her own fate..one that money cannot fix. That is the facts about why she isn't going. She basically realized it was going to be a big fat waste of time...

And to no. 1...that was a great comment

96. Cue the paris-haters!

exactly how is it her fault that the originating charity that is sponsoring the trip has changed its plans?

geez, what a bunch of hyper-judgemental, losers post on this site. just more endless re-cycling of internet gossip and lies. yeah, what great people they are, what great role-models they are for truth, justice and the american way.

Hey retard, I barely make enough to get by in life, but I give what I can to whom I can. I give all my families old clothes to organizations that donate them to the needy and such. Don't go assuming that because someone hates someone else that they don't do something that you think they should be doing. Oh, and by the way, we don't hate Parisite because she doesn't give to charities. We hate her because she lies about it to our faces. Hint, people in the public eye that say they are going to do something and don't follow through with it, are usually frowned upon. Parisite just likes to make things 100 times worse with her piss-poor attitude and narcisistic ways. Acting all high and mighty and better-than-though tends to make people hate you. If you have a problem with my comment, too bad. Deal.

101. There is very litte info about Playing For Good on the Internet, other than the summit that was held in Majorca. This 07 Summit was attended by celebrities and others who have given their time and resources to help others in need, such as Goldie Hawn and her foundation.

I'm betting that Hilton didn't cancel - she needs the publicity too much -- it's the reason behind her trip in the first place. I'm betting it has more to do with this foundation itself.

102. I have always know that Paris was not taking her ass to Rwanda, or anywhere else that does not have a place to party!!!!

103. Yeah right, she's gonna go to Africa. She probably couldn't find it on a map. She is a liar and this proves it as I predicted when she first made her big announcement.
