I think she's fine, a little misguided obviously. Also, saying a woman has "no ass" is such a weird criticism. I don't think it's any better than putting someone down simply for being fat.
I really don't think she's pretty in this emaciated way. Not so much because she's skinny, but because it's been clear (from articles) that this is not her natural body type and that she puts everyone else down for not being up to par with her (skinny) standards. Also, well, I just don't like skeletons.
they're not crazed obsessed people - they're normal people who know that if they got a DUI & then drove on a suspended license, they'd be completely fucked, and who think it's lame that 1) often, the rich can buy their way out of this and 2) there are actually non-rich people who think that's cool because oh how fabulous
In this case it's blatant that she'd like to escape her talent, but what is wrong to use your money to get a good/perfect defense? I mean, should they (the rich) not use the best defense lawyers possible? In this case of course she's a very public figure (and not that likeable to many people) so people expect her to pay up.

i've been getting into arguments with friends over the validity of paris' existence
i love defending her, cuz the thing to do is to scoff at her. weirdly enuf, people aren't really sure what to do with it. "what? you're not putting her down? what do you mean?"
it's interesting. those courtroom sketches are brilliant, xcept they make her nose look better than it is. kathy looks great.

Wilful contrarianism is great and all that, but sometimes the popular opinion doesn't revolve around a lack of imagination or awareness, but common sense and decency. With regard to PH, this falls squarely into the latter case.

this is accurate. still there's this really strong urge to troll that people get: "others become angry when I say that Paris Hilton is great. That's why I think she's great!" it's like the dialed-back version of boyd rice/jim goad style trolling

even if it gets excessive (and a little creepy), a little Schadenfreude thrown @ paris is not only justifiable it's also quite possibly a sign of life in bushco america (i.e., that trashy-yet-elitist über-materialism is STILL not acceptable).
― Eisbaer, Saturday, 9 June 2007 03:00 (nineteen years ago)
john D OTM -- willful contrarianism is often just puerile and adolescent. sorta like being the kid who plays devil's advocate in yer undergrad poli. sci. class and "defends" richard nixon or joseph stalin.

oh but Eisbar when you see how mad those people get when you say you like Nixon, it's like, how can you not like Nixon?

this whole story was hilarious, but it's become awesome, hasn't it?
It has confirmed my initial suspicions about her and the unspecified medical condition: she really IS four years old.
― StanM, Saturday, 9 June 2007 03:42 (nineteen years ago)
I really love that first picture of Nixon. It ranks right up there with Calvin Coolidge wearing the Indian headdress and sensible wingtips.
― Pleasant Plains, Saturday, 9 June 2007 03:43 (nineteen years ago)
well, i guess the truth is i don't totally her. u can say that's willfully contrarian, which makes sense, but at the same time, the overwhelming hatred of PH leaves little room for this sort of defense, rendering any defense of her at least somewhat provocative. and paris does not equal cancer, or stalin. she's just a dumb rich girl who likes being rich. in the end, her controversy is her reward.

Actually to some degree I can understand her saying she thinks it's unfair: there have been quite a few celebs (and non-celebs) who got off from the same thing.
― stevienixed, Saturday, 9 June 2007 08:03 (nineteen years ago)
Aside from whether you like her or not, the authorities are really messing up big time. She's being batted around while they play politics. Disgraceful.
― Rich Smörgasbord, Saturday, 9 June 2007 08:26 (nineteen years ago)
oh hai
let me suggest that part of people's amusement at paris's crying / screaming / whining here might have to do with her chief cultural product being a show where she and nicole traipse around being totally indifferent to the entire universe, stealing things from people and breaking stuff and wreaking havoc in a couldn't-give-a-shit way that is, admittedly, amusing
and that therefore it's pretty classic, basic comedy when the queen of couldn't-care-less is suddenly and dramatically reduced to hysterics when temporarily separated from the life to which she's become accustomed
and that if she were anywhere near as awesome as the lex likes to imagine she is, she'd have reported to jail and come out smiling in 40 days with corn-rows and a do-rag going "hey look everybody i got to make my own shiv" and "yeah i had a 'bitch' for a while but we grew apart"
but of course she's a fairly sad person with more or less none of the few redeeming characteristics of the fantasy character she sometimes plays
so she won't
― nabisco, Saturday, 9 June 2007 08:34 (nineteen years ago)
I never saw her show and I'll assume you're telling the truth about how she behaved on it. But I don't think this is "classic comedy". Not funny.

Show=Life
― stevienixed, Saturday, 9 June 2007 08:55 (nineteen years ago)
So, it's late at night/early a.m., and I am thinking in my own clumsy way that this whole deal is almost a sort of (overdue, both chronologically and otherwise) symbolic slamming shut of doors on and finally waving goodbye to a whole bunch of noxious cultural phenomena that I associate with the early '00's.
..and now I'm looking forward to the day when American Idol is cancelled...or Vice magazine folds. It's maybe a little like how seventies stuff like the Weathermen, SLA, and Watergate underlined the demise of "the sixties". Or the JFK assasination or Beatlemania being a belated end to "the fifties".
I can barely even think right now, let alone write, and maybe my muddled observation and crappy analogies make little sense outside of my own mind, but man, it's just I think this decade so far has sucked, horribly, in so many ways. Good riddance.

nabisco trying a bit too hard to be otm. How do you know she doesn't have any redeeming qualities? What a judgement to make requiring god-like powers!
