Platforms of Paris

            It seems like everyone who is famous wants to do anything and everything in the entertainment industry.  Actors want to sing, singers want to act, athletes want to rap, etc.  The Disney Channel produces many of these little celebrity multi-taskers, the company just keeps pumping them out like a factory.  From Miley Cyrus also known as Hannah Montana, to Raven Simone, to the Jonas Brothers and so on, practically all of the young actors happen to also sing!

            Although Paris Hilton did not get her start on the Disney channel, she is very much a part of this mutli-tasking celebrity trend.  All at once, Paris juggles modeling, acting, singing, not to mention her clothing line and her fragrance line.  If she keeps at it, she might just run out of things to do…

            I guess I can understand why she would want to take on so many different mediums to get her name out there, but what bothers me the most is that I don’t find her talented in any of the things she does… at all.  She’s a pretty face to put on the cover of a magazine, but her acting skills as presented in the 2005 House of Wax was anything but impressive.  Her role basically consisted of running around screaming until her death near the end of the movie.  Paris’s clothing line is nothing out of the ordinary, not to mention that every other celebrity out there either has their own clothing line or it’s in the works.  The same concept goes for her fragrance, which is very creatively named “Heiress.”  When there was talk about Paris Hilton starting up a singing career, I honestly thought it was a horrible rumor, but I was proven wrong.  Paris’s single “Stars are Blind” even made its way onto the top ten in 2006 somehow.  I can understand celebrities having more than one passion, but Paris just takes it overboard.

-I couldn’t find the official music video for her song, but the song is horrible enough, enjoy :]
