What I don't understand is how Paris Hilton has a career? Or how she is viewed as a "roll model?" Who are these self loathing young people who say to them selves......"ya that Paris Hilton. That's what I wanna be."
It's like those old commercials for a drug free America.
You know the one....
"No one ever says. I wanna be a junkie when I grow up."
Why Paris?
Why have you brought yourself out and about. Why do I have to know who you are?
Money sucking. Porno making. Self destructive. Angry. Lonely. Misplaced little doll.
Why can't you take those billions of dollars to a good shrink or a "Life Coach" and learn how to be a human being, not a star.
Be your own star little buddy.
Just keep scrapin' along.
Call me. Maybe I can talk ya down from that ledge of disarray.

Poor Paris.

Poor us.

I still don't understand how she's famous at all. Since when does just being rich make you a famous role model? She doesn't do anything special...
