Paris Hilton Watch

Now this one really got me laughing and giggling. Not only was it hilarious (at least for me), it’s also oh-so Paris!

What am I talking about?

Well on the previous post I wrote about how Paris Hilton defended herself against the lawsuit filed against her for allegedly failing to fulfill her duties to promote the 2006 sorority film, Pledge This! What I failed to mention was how our dear heiress charmed the judge in the case’ hearing.

I know that would give you a smile too, not for anything else, but because we all know Paris Hilton can sure do that too well. As reported in some news wires, our dear heiress, “repeatedly fussed with her hair and makeup in a federal courtroom Friday, sported six-inch stiletto heels and a black dress and amused the judge with a little wave on the way to the witness stand.”

Chief U.S. District Judge Federico Moreno, the judge who is hearing the trial commented on this, saying, “I’ve never had a witness wave at me before.”

“This will be my best case forever,” he added. To which Paris replied, “You’re my best judge forever.”

Again, that was just soooo Paris!

Well at least our dear heiress seemed to have brought humor in court, right. Besides, I actually think this whole thing is just pointless. In all fairness to Paris, why the film’s investors would put all the blame in her for the flick’s failure when she isn’t the main star in the movie after all. It’s not as if Paris is the Angelina Jolie type to have that kind of audience pull.

If there is one thing I would not doubt about Paris Hilton, it has to be that she wouldn’t miss a chance to promote something that has her name on it. – That’s one good reason to be seen in public and in the red carpets, right?

So when she headed to court in Miami yesterday (July 10) to defend herself for the lawsuit filed against her for allegedly failing to do her part to promote the 2006 flop, Pledge This!, I actually saw myself believing what Paris said.

“If I have my name attached to something, I want it to be as big as it can be,” our dear heiress testified during the hearing.

“It could have been a lot better if it was done more professionally. I wanted it to do as well as possible.”

This, however, was contested by the film’s investors – World Wide Entertainment – insisting that she (Paris) “rejected numerous TV talk shows and wouldn’t do several radio or magazine interviews to promote the movie despite a contract requiring her to do so.”

Paris responded on this saying that it’s not her fault not to be aware of her whereabouts, she said: “My people handle my schedule. I’m a brand. I’m a businesswoman. I have 13 different product lines. I’m always working.”

Hmmm… Paris Hilton could’ve had my sympathy here if only she had not given lame excuses of not being aware of her schedules. Like come on, she may have people to monitor that, but she’s still the boss. This is one pointless case actually.

Twitter can never get this useful. From taking a peek at the stars’ whereabouts, the social networking site has also been a place for the stars to pour out their deepest emotions.

With Michael Jackson’s memorial held today, Twitter paved way for the stars to send their final farewell to the King of Pop. And Paris Hilton was one of these stars.

Turning on to her Twitter account, our dear heiress wrote, “In tears watching the MJ Memorial Service on TV, so touching. Everyone loves you Michael!”

While her sister, Nicky also wrote, “I was in awe of how respectful all of the media and fans were. I expected chaos. Despite what is shown on tv everyone was very gracious.”

Paris Hilton’s pal, Kim Kardashian also Twittered, “Michael’s children were so brave brave 2 stand there on stage & speak to the world about their father…I spoke at my dad’s funeral & it was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. I was shaking & crying & what Paris did was sooo soooo brave!”

Other celebs who used Twitter to join the world in bidding goodbye to the King of Pop were Ryan Seacrest who wrote, “This makes the world feel so small…everyone connected right now,” Emmy Rossum, Brandy, Kelly Osbourne, and Paula Abdul.

Undeniably, Michael Jackson has touched the lives of many people not just in Hollywood but the whole world as well. After this memorial, I am just hoping all this hype die down as well to give Michael his real peace.

From Paris Hilton Watch, Michael Jackson, you will be missed.

After expressing how sad she was with the death of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, Paris Hilton is back to mourning mode as news came out that the runner up of her British BFF show, Kat McKenzie has died mysteriously last week.

Turning on to Twitter, Paris writes, “I am so sad, my friend Kat from British BFF passed away. She was such a beautiful, funny, and charismatic woman. She will truly be missed.”

She continues, “It is devastating to hear of her loss, my thoughts and wishes go out to her friends and family. Love you Kitty Kat. RIP.”

With her death, former contestants of the show also brought forth their condolences and dedications to Kat and her family.

Here are some of their messages:

Im so glad that i got the opportunity to get to know Kat…I have never met someone who has made such a big impression on me .She was full of life and had the most beautiful smile i have ever seen..-layla

Kat was such an out going lively character with such a big personality and behind this she was also a lovely girl with a big heart! – Ola

I will miss her greatly and will always envy her courage,confidence and love of life – Samuel

Although I didn’t have the chance to catch Paris’s British BFF, I am still saddened with this news. I know how this must’ve felt to Paris and the show’s former contestants as well. To the family and friends of Kat, from Paris Hilton Watch, our condolences.

After gaining recognition for this year’s 37th annual Fragrance Foundation FiFi Awards for Female Celebrity Fragrance of the Year, Paris Hilton may have another reason to celebrate this year. – A Teen Choice Awards Nomination!

Nominated for TV Female Reality/Variety Star, our dear heiress would be vying for the award against The Hills’s Lauren Conrad, Keeping Up With The Kardashians’s Kim Kardashian, Dancing With The Stars’s Shawn Johnson, and America’s Next Top Model’s Teyona Anderson.

Looking at the contenders’ names, don’t you think things just got interested here? I mean it’s a common knowledge Lauren used to date Doug Reinhardt who was Paris Hilton’s previous boyfriend then Kim Kardashian’s one of Paris’s frenemies, too. Isn’t this category just exciting?!

This got me thinking now, if ever Lauren wins this award over Paris and the others, do you think Paris’s opinion about The Hills – she once said it’s so lame and fake – would change? Oh well, let’s just wait for the announcement to come.

And while the announcement is something we have to wait for now, why not go visit the site to vote who among the nominees you think is most deserving of the award. While you are at it, go vote for the other nominees as well.

2009 may have been full of intrigues, heartbreaks, and rumors for Paris Hilton but this year has proven to have also been a year of abundance and recognition for our dear heiress. Guess this also proves to say that while Paris’s heart is bleeding, her professional career is on the other hand soaring high.

Another star slamming Paris Hilton? Definitely not!

In fact, we are not even talking of a star here. So who is Kaitlin Cassidy and why she’s talking about our dear heiress?

A graduate of Saratoga High School in 2003 and SUNY Oneonta in 2007 where she got a degree of computer arts, Kaitlin is one of those who vied to become Paris Hilton’s New BFF (best friend forever) in the latter’s MTV reality show (2nd season). After four weeks in the BFF mansion Kaitlin was eliminated after being accused for being a “fake and a liar”.

But while the most of the show’s cast have stopped talking to Paris, Kaitlin shares that she and Paris Hilton still communicate after the show.

“We have e-mailed and texted,” she said.

Talking to Times Union recently, she shares more about her experience joining the reality. Here are some highlights of the phone interview.

On why she auditioned for the reality: This opportunity sort of fell in my lap. Not to mention it’s Paris Hilton. No matter whether you hate her or love her, you can’t deny that she is one the most successful women in Hollywood. I respect her business sense. I always knew she wasn’t like the media makes her out to be. A lot of people in Hollywood are inaccurately portrayed by the media.

On what the people do not know about Paris: (Paris) does put on sort of a persona for TV, but that’s what people buy into, and that’s what works. She’s really funny and down to earth when the cameras are off. Everyone is a little bit different on TV. No one is going to go on TV and start farting.

At least we can see that Kaitlin isn’t bitter at all for not winning in that show. *Smile*

As you all know, Paris Hilton is in the Middle East now to shoot the Dubai version of her MTV reality show, Paris Hilton’s My New BFF. And being in a conservative place like Dubai, Paris just has to be cautious not to cross her limits as a guest.

So what would Paris being Paris do for this? – Hire a culture squad of course!

That’s right folks, our dear heiress has reportedly hired a team of cultural experts (wow!) to ensure that even if she wears her skimpy outfits in Dubai, she would not get arrested.

“She may be an airhead, but she’s not about to run the risk of spending time in a Dubai prison, however unlikely that might seem,” says a source Britain’s Daily Express newspaper.

Earlier, papz was able to take photos of Paris Hilton clad in a tiny bikini on the idyllic coastline despite warnings about the Middle Eastern regulations.

“Paris had made a big public speech, saying how much she loved the Middle East and respected its culture. But the following day she was prancing around on the beach in her bikini and posing provocatively,” says another source.

“Bosses warned her Western tourists have been jailed for flouting the rules.”

Hmmm… I was supposed to really really try not to slam Paris here in Paris Hilton Watch. However, I just can’t help it reading about this news. Like come on, those culture experts are really not needed if only Paris can keep her word to behave in the country. Prevention is better than cure, yes, but Paris’s idea of prevention might really be different.

Fan or not, who in the world was not saddened over the death of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson last Thursday (June 25)?!

And like the other celebrities and personalities in Hollywood who expressed how sad they were over the news, Paris Hilton too Twittered about how she felt over Jacko’s death.

Here are the series of tweets Paris did late last week:

“am so sad right now I can’t believe Michael is gone. What a sad day today, I’m devastated. :(”

“I’m still in shock about Michael. My mom grew up with him since they were teenagers and I’ve known him all my life. He was amazing, so sad.”

“Michael and his kids were just at my house a few months ago, I can’t believe I will never see him again. He was such a kind and gentle soul.”

“Love you Michael, you will truly be missed by the entire world. Your music will live on forever, truly timeless and iconic. Miss you :(”

“Life is short and precious. Be good and true. Enjoy every moment like it’s your last. You never know when it might be your time to go. Peace.”

While I usually tend to slam Paris Hilton, I certainly could not argue with how sad she is over Michael Jackson’s death. I myself, although not a fan of the King of Pop feels sad of his departure. But as Paris Hilton said, Michael Jackson’s music will forever live in this world and he will forever be missed by his fans, family, and friends.

After hanging out for several times early last week, it seems like Paris Hilton and Cristiano Ronaldo would not be heading to anything romantic after all.

A few days ago, the soccer star said in his interview with The Sun how both he and Paris are too busy to keep seeing each other (read: he simply lost interest in her and was gentleman enough not to tell it straight to the public. Now, our dear heiress strikes back by saying Cristiano may just not be her type of guy.

As reported by the National Enquirer, a source said “Paris has told Cristiano she isn’t interested in anything long-term. She says he’s cute and a cool person to hang out with, but that’s not the issue.”

“She likes her guys to be macho — and as far as she’s concerned Ronaldo turned out to be a real sissy!” Ouch! Sure this is one funny and I must admit really witty way to strike back into someone you’ve exchanged saliva with (ehem excuse me for the word).

The source (whoever this is sure knows a lot) continued saying, “Cristiano was obviously hurt that Paris shot him down. He’s definitely not used to girls who aren’t falling at his talented feet, so it was a huge bruise to his ego.”

“Now, by spending time with other women, he’s trying to pretend that he wasn’t bothered at being snubbed. But the reality is that he’s devastated that she’s not interested in dating him,” the source finished.

Oh Paris, this is one reason why I enjoy following her life despite the fact that I am no big fan. There always seems to be entertainment and drama with our dear heiress’ life.

You may or may not have seen it throughout the net yet but Paris Hilton’s latest fragrance ad campaign sure is making everybody stop for a while to check it.

From being an heiress to a fairy, Paris is here again to prove that she definitely deserves the Fifi fragrance award she won earlier this month.

Named Siren, our dear heiress’ sixth scent’s ad campaign showcases Paris in a sexy and seductive mermaid.

Asked why have this latest image? Paris explains, “Siren is all about being sexy in a playful way. I feel irresistible as a mermaid. What girl doesn’t want to have fun being a fantasy creature that men can’t resist?”

Produced through Parlux Fragrances, Siren by Paris Hilton is a tropical floral fragrance with notes of vanilla bean and creamy musk.

Arriving in stores in July this year, Siren by Paris Hilton Collection will be sold starting $45 a bottle for a 1.7 oz. eau de parfum spray.

Well I may not be too positive with my posts about Paris Hilton lately but I think this one’s good news for me. I have purchased one of Paris Hilton’s scents, Heiress, and I must say it sure does leave an impression; a certain Paris Hilton-like appeal to its wearer – myself included ehem. With this latest venture in the fragrance business, I am sure this would be another leap to Paris Hilton’s money-making life.

Come to think of it, while her love life is suffering her career as a businesswoman seems to be the otherwise. I guess that should say that Paris is better in business.

When you are an international playboy like Cristiano Reynaldo, ‘serious’ is definitely not a word in the dictionary.

So when news spread that the soccer star is losing interest with Paris Hilton, guess what? Nobody’s surprised at all!

Spending steamy nights (no pun intended) and flirtatious moments together just a day after Paris broke up with her baseball player and former The Hills star boyfriend, Doug Reinhardt, the departing Manchester United star now says, he’s just way too busy to have time for Paris Hilton. (Like seriously?!)

“She was a really cool girl and we had a great time talking. I am a young man and Paris a young lady, and us talking in a club is just what normal people our age do,” Cristiano said in an interview with The Sun.

“She lives thousands of miles away and is busy, and I am busy in Madrid so I am not sure if we will be able to see each other. I am just making the most of the short summer I get,” he added.

Well it looks like Paris Hilton will not be getting her wish of becoming the next Posh Spice after all. Without Cristiano as her boyfriend, she’s just back to being plain ‘ol her. On second thought, knowing Paris, I know she’ll somehow find a way for people to talk about her.

I just hope by now Paris realizes that her love life sucks because she takes her relationships as an opportunity to get the people’s attention. Come on, grow up!

They may not have been vocal about their approval – in this case disapproval – about her recently ended relationship, but it looks like Paris Hilton’s family are just too glad Paris can now move on to another guy.

Ending her six-month relationship with baseball player and former The Hills star, Doug Reinhardt, Paris’s family thinks that the first was just dating our dear heiress for monetary gain.

Quoted by buzzhollywood.com, Paris’s aunt, Kyle Richards revealed, “The stories out there about our family not approving of their relationship are completely true. Doug was riding Paris’ coat-tails. The break-up affected me in a good way. It’s definitely time for Paris to move on.”

This statement was then followed by Kathy – Paris Hilton’s mom – saying, “I think Paris needs to be with someone who is a bit more mature, older and has their own thing.”

Honestly, although I don’t care a bit who Paris dates now, I think her family definitely has got a point not liking Doug. Like I never knew who Doug was until he started dating Paris. Of course it’s not as if Paris was that famous but in terms of who the people knew, Paris is relatively a household name already – that is for the famous for nothing celebrities so to speak. So yes, I understand why the socialite heiress’ family is just this delighted Doug’s gone in Paris life.

Actually, if there was one boyfriend who I think would’ve been great for Paris, I still think that’s Benji Madden. I know Benj’s too good for Paris but at least he’s not a parasite.

For Doug, well, good riddance!

Lately I noticed that I’ve been too cynical about Paris Hilton. At least this time, I’ll try to write something nice about her.

Well attending the press conference for her reality show in Dubai, I couldn’t help but be wowed with Paris Hilton’s fashion. With her in complete Arabian outfit –with all the jewels and blings – I wouldn’t doubt if all the attendees that day get mesmerized by her.

Anyway, talking about the Middle East version of her reality show, My New BFF, Paris Hilton shared that studying the conservative culture of Dubai, she promises that all the drinking and swearing of the show’s Los Angeles and London versions will definitely be out in this latest version.

“I wanted to know everything about this place first because I wanted to make sure everything was OK. I just want to respect everyone here,” Paris shared.

And since Dubai is a very conservative community, Paris promises that she, too will adhere to its culture by dressing conservatively and make the show open to women only. (Paris, conservative? Now that’s something to be seen.)

“I expect to learn a lot here. It’s a completely different world,” she said.

For the show, 22 contestants will battle it out (sometimes that could be both literally and figuratively) to bag the title as Paris Hilton’s New BFF (best friend forever).

Well I must admit that among the versions of Paris Hilton’s reality show, this one’s got me the most interested. Probably because compared to the previous versions, this one offers something new and different from Paris. I’ll be looking forward for this show and hoping we, from Asia get to see this.

It looks like Paris Hilton wants to come clean about recent reports of her hooking up with Manchester United soccer star Christiano Ronaldo.

Just a day (yes, a day!) after her breakup with The Hills star, Doug Reinhardt, Paris Hilton was caught by the papz getting cozy with the soccer star in some bar. However, like she’s scared people would think she’s jumping from one athlete to another (Doug’s a baseball player by the way), our dear heiress now insists that there is nothing serious going on between her and the hunky but international playboy soccer player.

She said in an ambush interview, “Cristiano and I are good friends. Very good friends. He’s a nice guy - and an incredible athlete. We’re getting to know each other and I have to leave it at that.”

But do you believe Paris with her cliché statement? Well to recall, British media has recently reported that she thinks Cristiano would be good for her publicity. Reports said that our dear heiress believes that with her and the soccer star together, they can be bigger than Posh Spice and David Beckham.

She was quoted saying, “We’re both so famous we’d become even bigger than David Beckham and Posh Spice. We’re way hotter and younger than them anyway.”

Hmmm… well looking at their photos at the bar, I’m pretty sure they’re not ‘just’ friends. Then again, knowing Paris’s flirty side and Cristiano’s reputation as a lady’s man, they could just be playing around. And know what, these images they have too is the same reason why they can never be like David and Victoria Beckham.

Well unlike her previous breakup with Good Charlotte guitarist, Benji Madden, Paris Hilton seems not to be having a hard time with her recent split with Doug Reinhardt.

In fact, everything seems too easy for her rumors are spreading on the grapevine that our dear heiress is now eyeing on soccer ace, Cristiano Ronaldo to be Doug’s replacement in her heart.

Of course knowing Paris we know for sure it’s not just a simple attraction she has over the soccer star; there must be some vested interest that has something to do with her addiction to attention. And what could that vested interest be? Well it was reported that Paris now desires to be more famous than Victoria and David Beckham a.k.a. The Becks.

“We could be great together, you know,” a British newspaper quoted her.

“We’re both so famous we’d become even bigger than David Beckham and Posh Spice. We’re way hotter and younger than them anyway!”

As Cristiano just signed for Spanish club Real Madrid the socialite heiress was said to be more than willing to move with him.

“I told him I’m going to move to Madrid to be with him. I promised,” Paris told a friend.

Paris Hilton seems too excited with her new love – we have to hear a confirmation on this matter yet especially on the side of the soccer star – as her previous boy toy seem to have decreased her personality.

“Doug was just a washed-up reality TV star. All of a sudden there wasn’t as much interest in Paris, and her appearance fees were cut dramatically. She was working like a dog to make the same amount of money as before. She knows if she wins over Ronaldo she’ll be one of the hottest properties again,” a friend of hers revealed.

Paris sure is pathetic. Sigh.
