    The world could save money by throwing her in the Thames and redistributing her wealth . Are you with me comrades?!
    I'd do it for free and throw all the celeb mags in after her.

    Have you seen her latest TV outing?
    Paris Hiltons best British friend. Paris hunts for a British friend to go partying and shopping with.
    Presumably because she can't get any friends the normal way.... (which is logging on to an internet forum and abusing people till you meet someone with just as stupid views as yourself)
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.

    (especially the likes of Dopester, Amclusent and Asheron as I see them more as OK or Grazia's market demographic)

    It appears you have much to learn my friend. OK and Grazia are on whole different planets.

    Shortbread is heavy gut glue stuff. Imagine it inside binding up like sticky heavy pasta does. Can't think of any less pleasing food.

    Clearly you eat inferior shortbread!

    The socialite also vowed to keep the world economy afloat by continuing to go shopping.Paris said: "It's really scary about the economy right now. So the way I'm playing my part in helping is doing a lot of shopping wherever I go.

    "I think a way for people to get by in this economy and still be fashionable is to go to Topshop, because they have really cute clothes at great prices."
    Press Association Release

    I don't believe that woman promotes anything for free. Article fee and what else for that name-drop. I've just spent £80 in on clothes shopping in Benetton today as it happens - nothing purchased for me personally though.

    What is she doing over here anyway? If the press is to be believed she's bought a house here. Fewer opportunities from LA media for Paris over in LA now the boom-times-excess she was associated with are over? Safety concerns for her in downturn LA?
    Bimbo hotel heiress Paris Hilton is launching herself slap bang into the centre of the Camden Caners party crew... by buying a house down the road from Amy Winehouse.

    The £2million townhouse is also within walking distance of pads owned by Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding, cool comedians Noel Fielding and Leigh Francis, and Blur’s Graham Coxon.
    Residents of nearby Hampstead – home to stars including Jonathan Ross, David Baddiel and Ricky Gervais – should breathe a sigh of relief as Paris originally looked at property there in the £5million range.

    But one of the socialite’s hangers-on told me: “Paris started looking for a base when she was last in the UK to film her ITV2 reality show, Paris Hilton’s British Best Friend.

    "She initially thought about living near Hampstead and Belsize Park, but moved on to Camden, where she could get more bedrooms for her money.

    "She wanted lots of room for her friends from LA to sleep over. She will be spending a lot of the time in the UK, so she wants somewhere comfortable and quite similar to her girl palace in LA.
    Paris Hilton Moving To The Dump Known As Camden

    We’ve been to Camden a few times. It’s an experience to say the least when you leave the tube at Camden Town.

    Stand still for long enough and the local addicts will quickly assume you’re a dealer.

    Well there's me trying my hardest to provide common sense, witty, incisive posts to this board. And then which of my posts gets the most 'thanks'? The one where I just quote what Paris Hilton said in Heat magazine.

    If this is the preferred technique I'll continue with a Lindsey Lohan quote next week, Lilly Allen the week after and try for some pearls of wisdom from Jordan, Britney Spears, Victoria Beckham and Jodie Marsh throughout March and April.

    Listen :D just because your 'thanks' proportion to your number of posts has gone down since NDG went AWOL doesn't mean that you can make up the loss by posting !!!!!! threads :rotfl: . We're wise to that one already ;) and as a consequence of your sly tactics I am not going to thank you for your previous post nor your one at that start either because neither of them were 'useful' :rotfl: .

    Rob :D

    That's okay. I know from your previous postings that you're Richard Littlejohn in disguise so any thanks coming from you is as welcome as, erm, well, Richard Littlejohn himself.

    Technically she's spending her own money as she's made around $20 million from her own 'enterprises' (is that the right term for a sex tape?).

    A great performance it was to, her eyes looked a bit weird in the dark, but the rest looked OK ;)
    I used to have a signature but it disappeared and I just couldn't be bothered writing another, so please feel free to ignore this.
