Paris Hilton admits she is stupid

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.

"So if you pay somebody, then you're gonna be paying for the rest of your life. My dad always taught me. "

That's more sense than American Foreign policy has shown in regard to the third world for the last 50 years. She's got more in the noggin' than Jimmuh Carter in that regard.

Presumably you've passed on the title of the Avatar of Lechery to someone else then. ;)

I have. I nominate pissant and Larry Lucido, both HITs (Horn-dogs In Training).

I may still pop in and kid around a little, but understand that it's all in jest.

I really wouldn't hit _____fill in_____

There are lobotomised squirrels that have more brain capacity than Jimmy Carter.

Like ah, Paris, we kind of ah figured you were like ah, STUPID.

It's about time YOU realized it too. Perhaps if you laid off the drugs, what's left of your brain would be able to function better.

Don't know about you ... but I think they should AIR that video of Francis tied up being taunted by a sex toy. Heck, he exploits girls after they've had a few too many and humiliates them the rest of their life with video. Then again, to be a liberal is to be a die hard, cold hearted hypocrite.

Paris Hilton is a walking, talking PUBLIC urinal. She gets all bent out of shape when videos of her "activities" highlight that FACT.

[MadIvan]

I don't think it's urine that she's filled with, I'm afraid.

You mean to tell me she isnt acting. Sure had me fooled.

Give her credit: most stupid celebrities try to pose as intellectuals, at least she is resolutely and honestly dumb.

Refreshing, isn't it? Now, if we can only get her to "have a little talk" with Natalie Maines... /grin

"I'm not married."

Just playing hard to get ... one of these days Ivan ... you'll give in to the "love bug". You're too much of a sweetie!

I didn't say I didn't have a lady in my life. :)

My sister was in Vegas for her anniversary and Paris was there, walked past them and was in the glassed off VIP room. My sis said she is quite beautiful in real life, when she isn't posing in ridiculous, back breaking poses for cameras. My sister was also amazed at the vast amount of hangers-on she had. When Paris and the Greek people left, the hangers-on stayed. My sister was equally surprised at what big-deals the hangers-on acted like when the big dogs left. She said they knew their place when Paris and crew were around. She said it was rather pathetic.

please don't ever EVER have children.

That somehow strikes me as an exercise in futility. Ms. Maines doesn't shut up long enough for normal dialogue to occur.

"Some men has no standards."

May I qualify that a tad further?

Real PRINICPLED men have STANDARDS. Others let their privates do the thinking and fall for anything. When you have no principles/standards you'll fall for anything.

[nmh]

No ... it's not ... .

[nmh]

Oh ... my .... .

What a LUCKY woman she is!!!!

Is this THE ONE?

Feel free to e-mail me privately.

Well, we're all talking about her. Why is that? She's a no talent hack and proof that wealth does not equal class. But the girl understands PR, self-promotion, and how to manipulate and use celebrity culture. Maybe she's actually a lot smarter than the rest of us.

What a dumb burglar. People have to have some pre-existing sense of shame or dignity in order to successfully blackmail them.
