Paris Hilton

 

Paris Hilton's claim to fame isn't exactly glamorous, nor is she ashamed of it. When Rick Salomon, and Paris' sex tape hit the internet, she became a household name. Honestly, only the socialites new of Paris Hilton before 'One Night In Paris' made its rounds through the world wide web. The Paris Hilton sex tape shocked her family, at least for a few moments, and then it began. Paris had hit the big times, and all it took was a carefully planned sex tape to be released. In Hollywood, it doesn't matter how you got your name, only that you did.

However, Paris did indeed have a small career before her pornographic sex tape was released, and Hollywood came knocking. You see, The Simple Life came about,  only because the Hilton Heiress was now a known name. Nobody cared how Hilton became a celebrity, only that now she was. So with the morals that only a spoiled brat could endorse, she ran with her new found fame.

As the great granddaughter of famed hotelier Conrad Hilton and co-heir to the Hilton fortune, one would think that Paris Hilton had everything she could ever want. But instead of being satisfied with a position in life some would kill for, Hilton has stridently endeavored to make her own mark in the world--she and her younger sister Nicky were first among an increasing pack of young, hard partying socialites-turned-model/actresses that the media dubbed "celebutantes." In doing so, however, Hilton has regularly created a public spectacle of herself; and a few of her escapades have proved to be embarrassing. And while her name was bound to attract a certain degree of notoriety, the rabid partygoer and hyperactive socialite has in reality become famous for doing absolutely nothing of merit.

Hilton was born on February 17, 1981 and spent most of her youth growing up in the world famous Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in Manhattan, which Conrad bought during the Great Depression. Of course, Hilton grew up in other homes as well, most notably in the Hamptons and Beverly Hills. Upon graduating high school in 2000, Hilton immediately embarked on her quest for fame, first by modeling for such famed fashion designers as Tommy Hilfiger, Marc Bouwer and Catherine Malandrino. Hilton also posed for spreads in numerous magazines, including GQ, Vanity Fair and FHM. The heiress even tried to start her own modeling company and makeup line, but both ventures soon fizzled.

Hilton went from movies to television with a starring role in a reality show with life-long friend, Nicole Richie, daughter of pop singer Lionel Richie. In “The Simple Life” (Fox, 2003- ), Hilton and Richie ditched the glamorous Manhattan social scene and donned overalls and work boots to milk cows and bail hay on an Arkansas farm. Though completely out of her element, Hilton managed to survive the experience. Meanwhile, Hilton grabbed more headlines and inches in the gossip columns and US Weekly for her various alleged social misadventures: she reportedly went topless in a popular Manhattan club, though Hilton later denied the rumor; and she was also seen locking lips with the notorious Ingrid Casares.


 

Although the character didn't tote a chihuahua or wear predominantly pink fashions, she did doff her clothes and seemed ready to make a sexy video, so the part wasn't exactly a stretch, and the film wasn't exactly a critic's favorite. At the same time, Hilton announced that her friendship with Richie had reached an impasse, and she expected to replace her on "The Simple Life" with another pampered gal pal, Kimberly Stewart (the daughter of rock star Rod Stewart and TV personality Alanna Hamilton).

However, after several months of speculation, Fox announced that both heiresses would return for a new season together...and then later indicated that there was "no room" on its 2005-2006 schedule for "The Simple Life," and released the series to be shopped to other networks .
