Morning Links--aka Paris Speaks
KING: We're back with Paris Hilton. Let's cover some bases we may have skipped over. It was only claustrophobia but there were many reports that you were on medications of a serious type. Were you?
HILTON: You know there's a lot of reports that are false that are out there.
KING: You were not on medication?
HILTON: I have been on medication since I was a child. I have ADD. So I take medication for that.
KING: That's the only thing you deal with, attention deficit Disorder?
HILTON: Yes.
KING: Have you ever been addicted to drugs?
HILTON: No.
KING: Taken drugs.
HILTON: No.
Great followup there Larry. I can see you did your research. Maybe you were too interested in heading out to that casino you went to after the show. Maybe if you weren't the biggest suckup in the history of suckups you would have asked some questions that would have taken a lot of the shine off Ms. Hilton. See, I was willing to give her some benefit of the doubt here and wonder if she really changed, but, she hasn't. If anything she's worse.
KING: Never taken drugs?
HILTON: No.
KING: Do you have a drinking problem?
HILTON: No, not at all.
KING: You must have had -- just this one drink this one time?
HILTON: I'm just -- I'm not a big drinker. I'm not really into it. I think socially people do sometimes when they go out but it's not something that I really care about.
KING: So how have all these stories gotten out about you? Medications -- well, the ADD, that's a strong medication, isn't it?
HILTON: It's Adderall. I think anyone who has ADD takes it.
KING: You've had it all your life.
HILTON: Yes.
KING: But the stories about you being -- use of a drugs, and the like, parties. Wild scenes, all wrong.
HILTON: People make up so many crazy stories. The things I read about and things I see is not the person who I am. It really baffles me sometimes when I read things. The places I've never been. People I've never met. It's really shocking to me.
KING: Did you hang around with people who did those things?
HILTON: Yes. I know people who have.
KING: Were -- did people photograph you with people who did those things?
HILTON: I'm not sure, but I think a lot of people have that problem.
KING: Why didn't you put a stop to this earlier? In other words, if you would read stuff, why didn't you take an outlet to go on and say I don't -- I never use drugs? I don't drink?
HILTON: I don't -- I just feel like when you do that you put more attention to something. And when something is not true I just don't pay attention to it because I know my friends and family know the true me. And that's all that really matters to me and I feel like by defending yourself for things that aren't true, all you are doing is making people talk about it more.
