    Paris Hilton...again!?!?

    The reality is she made something of nothing, we didn't. She has turned herself into a brand, we didn't and people care about what happens to her, not about us. I can surely attest to Paris fatigue but the fact remains that there are millions of little rich girls whom we've never heard of; millions who do nothing but inherit, and yet this one had an alchemical ability to turn nothing into something. If I were a CEO I would seriously consider hiring her to do my PR/Marketing but wait...she doesn't need my job offer because once again she seems to have that Midas touch and while I can take or leave her antics, I can recognize her genius and not fall into that tired cliche of Paris bashing. She is young and spoiled for sure. From this experience she will learn and grow...can the population at large?

    PS-Video decorating the cell and having daily visits with your dog and this too will be a PR stunt.
