The comments are well documented. My own take on this, is that she is a beautiful, perhaps not very bright, young lady.
Unfortunately, there are animals out there that prey on young women, particularly if they happen to be beautiful, rich and famous. Paparazzi stalk the famous as a matter of course, with impunity. A topless picture of Jennifer Anniston, or a photograph of the Olsen twin as she steps out of the hospital after being treated for an eating disorder, fetches a small fortune for the photographer that followed them for days, weeks and months.
The fact that Paris Hilton sleeps with her boyfriend is of no interest to me. I could care less. That's their business..it sure isn't mine. The fact that this boyfriend filmed their "activities" and that film ends up on the internet, is another matter. She is labeled "trashy", he isn't stigmatized at all.
There are vicious, amoral people out there that prey on kids that are impressionable and have the free-spiritedness of youth. This isn't anything new...Larry Flynt is a prime example. Hugh Heffner, for Heaven's sake, became a cultural icon.
Somehow these kids lack the foresight to realize that having sex with your boyfriend on videotape is more than likely going to end up on a porn site. These kids have the "sex is cool" message hammered into their heads in teen magazines, movies, schools, and even on the evening news, thank you Bill Clinton.
It is the same lack of foresight that prompts a beautiful young 18 yr old to get a tattoo across her lower back or to have her body pierced in various and sundry areas that probably should remain unmentioned. There is no thought to the fact that a tattoo is permanent. There is no thought of "tomorrow".
Animals like the producers of Girls Gone Wild, Paris Hilton's boyfriend, and porn purveyors in general, prey on the gullibility and naivety of the young and that makes this very sad. Paris Hilton may be a very wealthy young lady, but she is no different to other young girls, who ham it up for the guy with the little video camera on the beach in Cozumel during summer break, and are then horrified to find themselves on a porn site or on a soft porn video like Girls Gone Wild.
To me, it is just terribly sad to see a beautiful young girl be labelled as "trash". The "stories" will never go away. Any mention of Paris Hilton, will have the obligatory mention of her "steamy" sex video with her boyfriend, etc. The boyfriend's name won't be mentioned. He's disappeared into oblivion. She's been labelled forever. No-one will remember him. Yes, her behavior certainly helped promote the label, no question about that. I see it, though, in a much larger context, as a cultural problem, not just the problem of the young rich girl that schtups anything that moves.
Anyway, sorry about the rant and the really long post. I feel very strongly about this, as you probably noticed. I'll don my flameproof suit and retreat to a safe distance.
Do you really think she had nothing to do with that video making it onto the internet? She is an attention whore and that video got her in the spotlight.
Um...no. You're trying to tell me that she had NOOOOOOOOOOOO idea she was being videoed? If she truly didn't know...then you have a point. But I'm sure she knew about it...possibly even spent some time planning it. The "impressionable and easily coerced" argument doesn't work here.
Bottom line...he's a scumbag, and she's a trashy, bigtime, skank.
There is also an internet video of her wearing a very short skirt, getting out of a car and making it VERY obvious that she wasn't wearing knickers. I think I saw little black bugs crawling around in there.
