Paris Hilton wants to play Tinkerbell - not her pet Chihuahua, but the famed fairy from "Peter Pan." A source tells us the celebutard is lobbying for the title role in Disney's live-action version of "Tinkerbell," in which the pixie finally gets a chance at life as a real girl.

PROFESSIONAL socialite Paris Hilton has confirmed she and rocker boyfriend Benji Madden will host a New Year's eve party at a secret Sydney location. "I can't wait to be partying with the Aussies and Benji DJ-ing by my side," Hilton said from Los Angeles. The billionaire hotel heiress is paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to attend parties around the globe, and was last down under when advertising magnate John Singleton reportedly paid her $5 million for a six-day promotional visit almost two years ago. This year's party will be streamed live over The Bongo Virus - a platform similar...

Forget Paris Hilton I'm just thinking there has to be a lot of female voters, outside the GOP, who have kept their views secret-but feel exactly like Hilton does; Hilton says: ---"I don't think she's stupid - she wouldn't be where she is today if she was stupid. I think she's smart, and it's just because she's a woman people are saying she's not." I hope there are a lot of Hillary voters hiding in the weeds.

Shes's the rich, daddy's girl heiress who's built a superstar career on living her private life in the spotlight. But sexy Paris Hilton snuggled up to The Sun and simpered that she'd been exploited by all the men in her life — hungry for fame and fortune. ................ Tearful multi-millionaire Paris fluttered her eyes and told the News of the World: "Every other guy I've been out with has used me for money or sex - but in most cases they just want fame. It made it hard to trust people."

Sarah Palin has a "hot bod" and should wear more revealing outfits, according to party girl and latter-day political pundit Paris Hilton. The hotel heiress has offered a spot of fashion advice to the Republican vice-presidential nominee. "My advice to Sarah Palin is, you've got a hot bod - don't keep it to yourself. Why wear a pantsuit when you can wear a swimsuit?" she said.

PARIS PUTS DOWN JOY It usually requires a willing suspension of disbelief to buy into anything the Priceless Princess of Poptarts, Paris Hilton, ever says but her slapdown of Joy Behar on “The View” was, well, priceless. http://www.popeater.com/television/article/paris-hilton-joy-behar-the-view/189305?icid=200100397×1209839457x1200609269 Paris made an appearance on the show and the View Crew showed the commercial clip in which the bikini-clad Paris defended her hotness and celebrity status and mocked the “white haired dude” running for president. That, I’m guessing, was a reference to Senator John McCain whose white top reflects not only his age but the torture he endured during his 5 1/2...

Paris Hilton responds to John McCain's ad comparing her to Barack Obama. It does prove that she is as vacuous as Obama. Hilton Supports offshore drilling. No surprise here. She supports onshore drilling too. In fact she supports drilling everywhere. (Video)

John McCain's mouthpiece has responded to Paris Hilton's stinging retort -- but he's not attacking Hiltie! In the unkindest cut of all, McCain's spokesperson Tucker Bounds tells TMZ that on the subject of energy, Paris is deeper than Barack. He says, "Sounds like Paris is taking the 'All of the Above' energy approach that John McCain has advocated -- both alternatives and drilling. Perhaps the reality is that Paris has a more substantive energy plan than Barack Obama." Just hours ago, FunnyOrDie posted a video of Paris calling McCain "wrinkly" and pitching a hybrid energy policy.

Paris Hilton answers McCain ad

HOLLYWOOD, CA (Hollywood Today) 8/5/08 — There has been a major backfire with presidential candidate John McCain’s TV ads comparing Barack Obama’s rock-star status and intelligence to celebrities Paris Hilton and Britney Spears. Not only has the highly- influentional Hilton family struck back, who once donated to McCain’s campaign, about the affront to their offspring, fans across the nation are riled by the commercials offending their women, no matter how controversial they may be. Moreover, Paris can sue McCain in many states who have “right of publicity laws.” Simply stated, you cannot use a person’ image to sell anything without...

There's nothing exotic or complicated about how phenoms are made in Washington, and, more to the point, how they are broken. "Andy Warhol said we all get our 15 minutes of fame," says Barack Obama. "I've already had an hour and a half. I mean, I'm so overexposed, I'm making Paris Hilton look like a recluse." The new senator from Illinois is dazzling another venue, in this case the Gridiron Club. It is early December and Obama won't start his new job for a few weeks. But he comes well steeped in the basic physics of hype. "I figure there's...

Warning: excessive adulation of Barack Obama is harmful to the vision and and in extreme cases can even cause hallucinations. We're all familiar with how an Obamania overdose produced strange tingling sensations in Chris Matthews. A new, virulent strain of the malady has now surfaced, claiming its first victim in the person of Bob Herbert, who on live national TV claimed to see visions of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Washington Monument where none existed. View video here.

Kathy Hilton, a McCain donor. "It is a complete waste of the country's time and attention at the very moment when millions of people are losing their homes and their jobs," the uber wealthy Kathy Hilton said in a short article posted on the liberal Huffington Post Web site. "And it is a completely frivolous way to choose the next president of the United States." calling the ad "a complete waste of the money John McCain's contributors have donated to his campaign."

While we love the sound of Paris Hilton for president... It doesn't seem likely to happen any time soon. Especially not if Paz's recent political drama is anything to go by. According to People, a campaign from US Republican presidential hopeful John McCain likening rival Barack Obama to Paris and Britney Spears has not gone down well with the heiress. Her rep issued a statement to People, which reads: "Miss Hilton was neither asked, nor did she give permission, for the use of her likeness in the ad, and has no further comment." The ad campaign shows images of Brit,...

The comedy director who gave us such immortal movie lines as “Oh stewardess, I speak jive” and “Don’t call me Shirley” is now leveling his sights at documentary filmmaker Michael Moore. David Zucker, the director and writer who helped create “Airplane!” and “The Naked Gun” franchise has called on Hollywood’s tiny but tightly knit Republican A-list crowd to help him make a broad yet unusually right-leaning political satire titled “An American Carol.” The low-budget indie co-stars Emmy winner Kelsey Grammer with Oscar-winner Jon Voight, cinema icon Dennis Hopper, model-heiress Paris Hilton and frequent Zucker stooge Leslie Nielsen in minor roles....

Paris Hilton's younger brother, Barron Hilton, was arrested Tuesday morning for allegedly driving under the influence, authorities said. Hilton, 18, was stopped after a witness reported seeing a black Mercedes-Benz weaving on Pacific Coast Highway, at times drifting into the oncoming traffic lane, according to a statement from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Deputies arrested Hilton when he pulled over and got out of the car.

When it rains, it's sometimes only a drizzle. Barack Obama basked in a drizzle yesterday, but it probably felt like a downpour to Bill Clinton. First he loses South Carolina — his surrogate was not just defeated, but trounced — and now he learns that he's not America's first black president anymore. Democrats are counting on the Restoration in November, but it's not yet clear who or what is being restored. If Bill Clinton was once the first black president, Barack Obama would be the new, improved black president. Not too black, not too white, but just right. We have...

Paris Hilton is heading to Harvard University, but not to study she will be named its Woman of the Year.

Time to tighten the belt, Paris. Hotel magnate Barron Hilton announced yesterday that he's leaving 97% of his wealth to charity, dramatically cutting the fortune his children and grandkids will get. That means granddaughter Paris Hilton, who once stood to inherit $100 million or more by some accounts, could end up with a measly $5 million or so. "The whole family will be devastated, particularly [Paris' mom] Kathy," a pal of the clan told the Daily News last night. "Some of them could be likely to contest the will - it'll be in the courts longer than Anna Nicole Smith...

11-13) 15:44 PST GAUHATI, India (AP) -- In a Nov. 13 story, The Associated Press incorrectly reported that Paris Hilton was praised by conservationists for highlighting the problem of binge-drinking elephants in northeastern India. Lori Berk, a publicist for Hilton, said she never made any comments about helping drunken elephants in India.

GAUHATI, India - Paris Hilton is being praised by conservationists for highlighting the problem of binge-drinking elephants in northeastern India. Activists said a celebrity endorsement such as Hilton's was sure to raise awareness of the plight of the pachyderms that get drunk on farmers' homemade rice beer and then go on a rampage. "The elephants get drunk all the time. It is becoming really dangerous. We need to stop making alcohol available to them," the 26-year-old socialite said in a report posted on World Entertainment News Network's Web site. Her comments were picked up by other Web sites and newspapers...

Paris Hilton may not be ready for her planned charity work in Rwanda, but she was up for judging a beauty contest in Tokyo on Tuesday. Hilton and her younger sister, Nicky, each chose one finalist for the Miss Universe Japan contest. A dozen or so more will be selected next month. "I love Tokyo," Hilton said. "The shopping is great."

NEW YORK - Her trip to Rwanda has been postponed, but Paris Hilton is still determined to use her celebrity status for good causes. "I want to travel the world," the 26-year-old socialite says in an interview posted on the Web site of the syndicated entertainment TV show "Extra."

The Playing for Good Foundation announced last week that Hilton's philanthropic trip to Rwanda has been postponed due to restructuring of the children's charity. On her itinerary: visits to schools and health-care clinics. Hilton...

Wedding bells might not be far off for Pamela Anderson. The former 'Baywatch' star and Rick Salomon applied for—and were granted—a marriage license late Saturday ... Anderson, 40, has been previously married to singer Kid Rock and Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee.

Apparently making good on her post-jail promise to help others, the socialite, 26, tells E! Online about her African ambitions, "I'll be going in November, after I get back from filming my movie. There's so much need in that area, and I feel like if I go, it will bring more attention to what people can do to help." Though a trouble spot of notorious proportions –...

Paris   Paris Hilton is left beer-eft September 20, 2007           HEIRESS PARIS HILTON has been banned from Munich’s famed Oktoberfest for “cheapening” last year’s event.  Locals were outraged when the socialite, 26, arrived at the beer festival in plaits and traditional Bavarian dress to advertise a brand of canned wine.

Socialite Paris Hilton came unstuck after a night on the tiles, as she stumbled in her gold high heels and had to be rescued by her entourage - but she seemed a lot more stable later on when bizarrely she was seen scaling an iron gate.

Party princess Paris Hilton is $60 million out of pocket after her billionaire grandfather - appalled by her jail term for drink-driving offences - axed her inheritance. Family patriarch Barron Hilton was already embarrassed by his granddaughter's wild behaviour - notably when her home sex video was leaked on the internet. But the 79-year-old considered her 23-day sentence last month the last straw. "He was, and is, extremely embarrassed by how the Hilton name has been sullied by Paris," says Jerry Oppenheimer, who wrote a biography of the clan called House Of Hilton.

This was a full week for the world media: President Bush explained that insurgents in Iraq are tied to al-Qaida, Attorney General Gonzalez sparred with U.S senators, and the Dow lost 226 points. Yet, as I watched the headlines blur across my TV screen, it was clear the media had "Hilton syndrome." Lindsay Lohan's arrest dominated headlines and was the lead story on almost every news program. A nauseating reminder of the Hilton media frenzy, America confirmed its infatuation with the cult of the celebrity. A month ago, when socialite Paris Hilton managed to get herself a jail sentence, the...

What is the point of this? Is everyone, every opportunist coming out of the woodwork to exploit poor Paris for all that is wrong with the world? Inequalities in the penal system, blame Paris. Celebrity Justice(in this case, injustice). Global Warming, blame Ms Hilton. Decadent Pop Culture, blame Paris Fame for being famous, blame Paris I guess people need scapegoats! Problem is, if Paris Hilton is so vapid, so dumb, then she couldn't be causal for these problems, simply the end result. If Ms Hilton is famous for no good reason at all, then we have only ourselves to blame....

Perhaps it’s all this warm weather, but I find myself bursting with notions. To begin with, I feel it’s high time that I stepped up to the plate and risked being called a few bad names by denying the myth of the essential Mexican. If you listen to such clodhoppers as George Bush and Ted Kennedy, you might actually get the idea that without a constant stream of Spanish-speaking illiterates, our economy would collapse like a punctured balloon. How is it, I wonder, that this nation managed to get along for the first 200 years of its existence? There are...

Watch as MSNBC anchor Mika Brzezinski refuses to report a lead story on Paris Hilton on live TV. She even tries to set the script on fire! If only more anchors could display this kind of bravery and integrity.

London, June 19 (ANI): Former US Vice-president Al Gore is enraged that his best of efforts to raise awareness about global warming are being overshadowed by the excessive media coverage of people's interest in saving Paris Hilton. ccording to reports, while the politician-turned- environmental campaigner has been trying to get his messages across to people, TV networks are donating the majority of their airtime to American socialite Paris Hilton's stint behind bars, and this is what is troubling him. "The G8 have been meeting in Germany and the United States is throwing a monkey wrench in the efforts to get...

As noted here, MSNBC's John Ridley went off on Al Gore this morning, suggesting he should hug his kid rather than the planet, save his son, not ice caps. But over at NBC's "Today", it was a more predictable MSM response, as the show sought to downplay the Gore incident by pointing to Republican politicians whose kids have caused trouble, while praising Chelsea Clinton as unusually mature. Introducing the segment, Meredith Vieira shifted the spotlight from Gore's situation to the broader issues. 'TODAY' CO-HOST MEREDITH VIEIRA: And now to politicians and their children.

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) - Orange County prosecutors say they have until August first to decide whether to file charges against Al Gore's son following his arrest on suspicion of illegally possessing marijuana and prescription drugs. A sheriff's spokesman says Al Gore the Third was driving about 100 miles per hour on the San Diego Freeway early Wednesday when he was pulled over. Sheriff's deputies say they found a small amount of marijuana plus Xanax, Valium, Vicodin and Adderall, which is used for attention deficit disorder, in his Toyota Prius. Sheriff's officials say the 24-year-old Gore did not have a...

On Monday, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, got some good news. Convicted last month of lying to investigators and obstructing inquiries into the leak of former CIA agent Valerie Plame's identity, Libby learned he wouldn't have to serve his 30-month prison sentence — and had President George W. Bush to thank. The president commuted Libby's sentence, a move that falls just short of a full pardon (see "President Bush Commutes Lewis 'Scooter' Libby's Sentence In CIA Leak Case"). While largely expected, Bush's decision was met with praise from conservative activists and sparked...

The sellers were from the Web site HollywoodStarTrash.com, which also listed several other Hilton items for sale on eBay, including a used toothbrush that also sold for $305; two envelopes sent to her while she was in jail that sold for $510; and a Coke can for $51....

In 2007 as in 1945 a shout of exultation rises from an exhausted populace: “Paris is free!” A new Paris, toughened by the rigors of a prison regimen, her jaw set in a determined moue, strides boldly into the public square to face whatever comes: “Have gum, will travel.” We are witnesses to a moment in history. We hate to make jest of Paris Sheraton or La Quinta or Hyatt, whatever her name is, especially in light of her secret medical condition. Her peace of mind should be our paramount concern. She told Larry King that “this is a crossroads...

JUNE 28--We hate to call ex-con Paris Hilton a liar, but when she told Larry King last night that she had never taken drugs, it seems that the heiress somehow forgot about the marijuana, hashish, mushrooms, and Quaaludes. Hilton's, um, familiarity with illegal substances was memorialized on home videos she shot over the past several years in various cities. As we've previously reported, her videos are available on a web site that charges about $20 for a one-month subscription.

It was a phrase made famous by actress Ingrid Bergman's character Ilsa Lund in the classic Humphrey Bogart film Casablanca. But movie buffs and other show biz aficionados are far more likely these days to hear it from news editors and entertainment show producers. "We'll always have Paris," no longer applies to the romantic French metropolis which was where Lund and Bogart's Rick Blaine made magical love. Instead, it now pertains to that other Paris, the one whose name is on every television newscast and in every newspaper across North America and around the world. And the spectacle that is...
