Paris Hilton Makes $1M A Month


In what world is possible for someone like Paris Hilton to make $1M a month? Apparently in our world. Are we really that shallow of a society that we are willing to buy the products that she endorses? We obviously are or she wouldn't make that much money. I can't even type. Why do any of us work? What is the point? Lets just go make asses of ourselves and be ignorant and stupid and companies will pour money down our throats.

In a deposition Paris had to give in a suit filed against her for failing to promote the movie Pledge This, it was revealed that for the years 2006 and 2007 Paris made $22M. That is almost $1M a month. I'm shocked. The good news is she is absolutely clueless about her finances so someone will probably steal it all from her and hopefully she won't be able to get it back.

Access Hollywood got their hands on some of the choicer quotes from Paris' deposition.

When asked who gets her bills, she said, “I don’t know. I’m assuming, like, whoever pays my bills. I never ask about that stuff.”

Hilton's attorney says Paris has not taken a day off from work in years and that "she's the single busiest person on the planet." The remarkable thing is he probably said it with a straight face. I have never felt more insulted as a human. Forget about the moms and the police and fire fighters. The teachers. The people who work three jobs as a single parent to support their kids. Forget about the leaders of countries. None of them have a thing on Paris Hilton. She works harder than all of them.

It turns out that Paris was one of the producers of the movie. When asked what a producer does she said, “I’m not sure what a producer does, but — I don’t know, help get cool people in the cast."

Oh, and she only does Letterman and not Leno because he “didn’t follow particular guidelines with regard to why we were there and promoting. We would never do Leno.” I'm not sure who the "we" is there, but I also bet Leno is not losing a lot of sleep over the fact that Paris won't be on his show.

I need a drink.
