Paris Hilton


Yeah, those are the only two words needed to describe her. Those words have become a brand unto themselves. That too a multi million brand.

I don’t have gossip potential as that of TMZ nor the panel of experts as CNN detailing every little aspect of yours but whatever I can perceive of her makes her a fascinating person. I am well aware that I am taking a contrarian view, but I have always tried to look beyond the popular opinion in any context.

Paris Hilton to me is a genius in marketing. Agreed, it all started with the sex tape. But if that is all that is needed to make what Paris is today, then Jenna Jameson would have been as successful and rich as Paris is. That sex tape was just her launching platform, and whatever she did later was her own crafty ways.

The fortune that this high school dropout, has from her grandparents’ hotel empire and real estate business of her parents is enough for her to enjoy the luxuries, which only few of us can imagine. She didn’t stop at that and created her own name that is getting as famous as the original ‘Hilton’ brand. She has done it all, music albums to designer jewellery.

The most recent adversity of spending 23 days in jail has been turned into a gold pot by her. She very well knows that in the game of publicity, any publicity is good publicity. She will reportedly be getting 1 million dollars by NBC for her interview with Meredith Vieira. There was also contest for buying that story as well. Though, her first interview with Larry King wasn’t paid for. People might think she is dumb, she may be or may not be, but at the end, she is the one who is laughing all the way to bank.

    Ya, most people hate her or think she's too dumb. But still everybody talks about her, she's everywhere and making lots of money. I think she understands show business pretty well!

    I agree Satya.

    I wrote the same thing on my blog about Kekta Kapoor and the party.

    and Paris I think is the best example of this breed of celebrities.

    Behind all that dumb blond rich socialite is a very smart girl who knows how to use everything to her advantage. Just like behind those stupid serials and glossy movies are some ppl with very practical business sense.

    love them ,hate them, but u cant ignore them :P

    Mowgli - Brutus loved Republic, thee loves capitalism.

    EU - Okay !

    Expression - Hey you going anonymous, bit by it :)

    Raj - Yeah her dumbness is questionable, but her shrewdness isn't.

    Neihal - Yeah, and she even turned her jail stint in such engrossing news bites.
