About this deal

I consider Paris Hilton a genius in that she's managed to arise to super Pop Culture Stardom doing NOTHING. Which is why I traded a book for this book. I planned to figure out what shot her so far. In that sense I was disappointed. She's not as deep as I thought, she doesn't have a master secret, or secret genius (at least not revealed in this book). What IS the truth about the 'manopause'? As Robbie Williams blames declining testosterone for killing his... Pixie Geldof looks typically stylish in a plunging knit jumper as she joins Gugu Mbatha-Raw at the opening event ofSézane inMaryleboneFirst of all I'm wanna say Paris Hilton's Stars Are Blind is a bop and goes harder than it has any right to. That song isn't a Guilty Pleasure because I feel no Guilt. I was never a Paris Hilton fan or a Paris Hilton hater. I remember seeing a few episodes of The Simple Life here and there and seeing stories about her on E! But for the most part she was never a pop culture figure who I paid a lot of attention to. So I was surprised with how much I ended up loving her memoir. There have been a lot of reexaminations of the ways that the media treated young women in the early 2000s, and Paris’ story adds a lot to that conversation. Paris Hilton probably saw the “reconsideration” treatment that once demonised or pilloried women from Lorena Bobbitt to Britney Spears had been getting in the media over the last few years and wanted in. And if the New York Times wasn’t going to do it, then by God she would do it herself.

paris: the memoir is an emotional, raw, and incredibly vulnerable memoir. i grew up a little while after paris was having her heyday in the late 90s/early 2000s so while i always knew who she was, i’ve never known too much about her (in fact i only watched ‘the simple life’ for the first time recently), so this memoir was really enlightening.Don't be fooled by the lovely pink cover - this book covers some serious and dark topics including struggling with ADHD, rape, Paris' traumatic experience at CEDU and Provo, PTSD, being re-traumatized, etc. Jenna Ortega admits she'll never dye her hair blonde or conform to industry standards because individuals 'haven't had her best interests' Paris Hilton, now one of the highest paid DJs in the world, is an intelligent and hard-working woman who made a fortune by allowing people less fortunate and smart than her to nevertheless feel superior. Ghostwritten by Joni Rodgers, her memoir is extremely successful when it comes to illuminating how her public persona as a dum-dum - which, make no mistake, she herself created - made some people feel like there is no limit to how she could be insulted, belittled, and shamed. Hilton was severely abused by the media and the public, including her being slut-shamed after becoming the victim of revenge porn. Yes, in the early 200's, misogyny was often still accepted as entertainment or even comedy (just think of Monica Lewinsky or how people rejoiced when Lindsay Lohan was afflicted by crippling addiction).
