Hotel heiress Paris Hilton has admitted something the rest of the world already knew - she's not that bright.
The 25-year-old star of The Simple Life made her confession to cops quizzing her about a burglary at the home of Girls Gone Wild creator Joe Francis. She was hailed as a crime-fighter when she told Francis, who has made a fortune selling raunchy videos of topless college girls partying, she had overheard on the party scene that a Hollywood hanger-on called Darnell Riley had boasted of breaking into his house.
But when she was quizzed by Los Angeles police it emerged she wasn't a reliable witness as she could not remember what happened. "Like I really, I don't remember," she said on police tapes obtained by the television show Dateline. "I'm not, like, that smart. I forget stuff all the time."
Riley was arrested after Hilton's tip-off, and earlier this year was sentenced to nearly 11 years in prison after pleading guilty to residential burglary and attempted extortion.
During the raid he took video showing Francis tied up with his trousers pulled down, while Riley taunted him with a sex toy.
Hilton also told police she was the victim of extortion, after 'private tapes' were stolen from her home and an anonymous caller offered to sell them back to her, but that she followed her father's advice and refused to pay up.
"They wanted money," she said. "They were tryin' to sell it to like a newspaper or something. So if you pay somebody, then you're gonna be paying for the rest of your life. My dad always taught me. They'll keep the tape anyway." Dateline also obtained video of Francis being humiliated but has no plans to show it.
Or merely an idiot savant.

And how much money would she make trying to pretend to be an intellectual? Does ANYBODY ever care what she says or thinks?
Shalom.
See, I had that exact same thought. The fact that she KNOWS she's stupid means she's kinda smart, which wrecks her whole "I did it because i'm a stupid cow" MO.
Shhhhhhhh, don't give them any ideas!
But then again...HEY WHY NOT!
I think we know which way she leans...Politically that is...
Certainly. Enjoying being anally violated is one thing every Democrat has in common, that's why they wish it upon the rest of us.

Of course, if she did enter politics as a Dim, she'd raise the collective IQ of their caucus significantly.
Glad to see you back, Ivan.
I will admit that she does have some knowledge of how money is made...which is more than most Democrats.
Glad to see you back, Ivan.
Thanks.
Regards, Ivan
Well put!
Not myine, either.
Yeah, I'm guilty too.
again, i quibble with the word beautiful.her features are not such that she could be considered beautiful, attractive, yes. and i think the hangers on must be just horrible people, don't you think? celebrity worship is just gross.
LMAO!
I actually find her amusing. I loved the episode of The Simple Life in which she was trying to guess the religion of a Pakistani family. The son said, "Since 9/11 it's the most talked about religion in the world." Paris, a lightbulb going off figuratively above her head, said, "Kabbalah!"
Maybe someone wrote that line for her. But if she thought of it herself, she has real comic talent.
Awww......that was mean....why scare them like that? Jerks...
