In recent years Paris Hilton has gained recognition by appearing in television, movies,
commercials, and modeling. According to Forbes magazine, in 2003-2004 she earned
approximately US$2 million for her television and movie roles, but in 2004-2005 her
earnings from television, movies, modeling, and personal appearances have earned her
an additional $6.5 million. During this period Forbes Magazine has ranked Paris Hilton as one
of the top 100 celebrities in the world.
Hilton and Nicole Richie (daughter of Lionel) starred in the 2003 FOX hit reality series
The Simple Life, in which they lived with a family on their farm in rural Altus,
Arkansas. On March 19, 2004, Hilton suffered a horseback riding accident while filming
The Simple Life 2, requiring treatment at a hospital. In April 2005, however, Hilton
announced that she severed both personal and professional ties with Richie.
Unconfirmed reports suggest that Paris Hilton hosted a party to watch her performance
as host of Saturday Night Live, but that Richie switched the SNL tape with a tape
of Hilton’s infamous sex video.
She was also the subject of a negative South Park episode entitled
“Stupid Spoiled Whore Video Playset” in which she opens a store called “Stupid Spoiled Whore”
selling girls everything they need to emulate her.
In November 2004, Hilton participated in Sean “P. Diddy” Combs’ Vote or Die campaign,
to encourage youths to vote in the Presidential election. Ironically, she would somewhat
fulfill her theoretical obligation to “die” when the promoters of her film, House of Wax,
employed a notorious “See Paris die” advertisement campaign, highlighting the death
scene of her character in the film.
Hilton will also be working with Scott Storch. She will be covering Blondie’s hit
‘Heart of Glass’ for her album. On February 19, 2005, the contents of Hilton’s personal
T-Mobile account were posted to the Internet.
They included phone numbers (which included many celebrities such as Christina Aguilera,
Fred Durst, Eminem, Lindsay Lohan, Alsou, Jay-Z, Anna Kournikova,
Snoop Dogg, Andy Roddick, Benjie Paras, Avril Lavigne, Frankie Muniz,
Ashlee Simpson, Jerry Yan), notes (with even more numbers and email
addresses and reminders such as her date to host Saturday Night Live),
and thirty-five digital snapshots.

I have a video from the Paris Hilton video on my blog. To bad it got relased onto the internet for everyone to view. She did not want it to be released as it was her ex boyfriend Rick Salomon that lost it.
