What kind of culture would embrace Paris Hilton?

You're soaking in it...

[Biblebelter]

A culture which cannot elevate itself much above comic books and comic strips. We take comic books, make movies out of them, and celebrate the movies as significant pieces of culture. Paris Hilton is a comic strip characte of the non-animated variety. She is a modern day Daisy Mae born rich not poor and her TV which sought to ridicule the routine and the everyday, actually had the opposite effect and exposed her and her ilk as the ridiculous.

C'mon, the question is being asked about a culture that affords millions to a sk*nk like Madonna, hasn't asked her to simply remove herself from view, and one that sits outside a courtroom bemoaning the fact that Michael Jackson must suffer the indignities (their opinion, not mine) he has.

A scantily-clad honey draped over a car in order to sell something, be it a burger or the car, is nothing new.

any ideas?

[discostu]

Just because someone is a cultural icon doesn't mean they've been embraced. The celbrity that functions by being completely worthless and the constant target of derision has been around for a long time, icons but not embraced.

[k2blader]

A slutty culture. One that includes slutty Democrats and slutty Republicans.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

You can die of hanging or you can die of syphilis ... depending on whether you embrace Paris's principles, or Paris herself.

[MinuteGal]

I'll bet she's had more one-night-stands than all the Hilton Hotels put together.

..What kind of culture would embrace Paris Hilton...

The same that embraces Tommy Hilfinger

[Durus]

I think Paris Hilton is a physically attractive woman. The thing I find most disturbing about her is the complete vacuousness of her eyes. The are empty of any emotion or thought.

Calendars showing more skin were found in garages all over America in the 1950's, and were usually called "cheesecake", not porn.

The problem here, is not the skin, but the fact that she was umm ... "dancing" with the car. (Yea, that is what she was doing, "dancing".)

[GraniteStateConservative]

What kind? A capitalist one. She's worked what she has hard and has made a mint from it, to add to her inherited wealth.

[Voir Dire]

" The moral among us have been forced into tolerance of immorality"

Bingo.

Once madison Avenue realized sex sells, the whole damn dam opened up.

[funkywbr]

A horny colture with bad taste in womens faces.

[Nowhere Man]

"Hoe" alert and ping. Send Paris and Paris to Paris, it is the best place for them.

[Larry Lucido]

What kind of culture would embrace writer can't think of anything better to write about than Paris Hilton?

[finnman69]

The spot is pure, soft-core pornography, beginning to end

The author has obviously never viewed soft core pornography.

[Osage Orange]

The same people that bought "Pet Rocks"...and still think Micheal Jackson is normal.

[wildbill]

What kind of culture? A culture that is now producing a 'reality' show whose contestants vie to be Bianca Jagger's "kept" man.

Whenever you think the bottom feeders have hit a new low, they manage to surprise you.
