While I’m definitely not a Paris Hilton fan, I’ve found myself following her latest escapade….in jail…out of jail…back in jail again. The whole drama got me to wondring what I would do if “I” were Paris Hilton.
Of course, this is all pure speculation….but if I were her I’d:
1) Get involved in the Hilton corporation. I’d have gotten my degree while working in the industry, then when I was through school (an MBA would be nice) I’d become a productive member of the Hilton management team.
This would be a particularly good fit for me since I love to travel and I like staying in nice hotels.
2) Rank does have its privileges so I would make sure I had plenty of vacation time to go to fun events like benefits and fashion shows. After all, being a Hilton carries a certain social responsibility.
3) No matter how nice the family estate, I’d have a place of my own.
4) I’d keep her chihauhau, Tinkerbell. I used to have a chihauhau growing up and really liked her. I’m sure I’d like this dog too.
4) I would find a cause I believed in–like literacy–and use my spare time, talents and money to further that cause and make the world a better place. I firmly believe that with great wealth comes great responsibility
5) I would find good friends, people I could trust and hold onto them for dear life. I imagine this would be hard. When you have that much money and fame, how could you “really” know if someone’s friendship was true?
6) I would stay away from drugs and casual sex.
What about you? Ever wonder what you’d do (or not do) if you were Paris Hilton?

This is an interesting post, Cindy. Up until now, I’ve been thinking (like the rest of the population) that she’s just a spoiled brat and deserves jail time like anybody else. And I’ve accepted that she’s rich and spoiled … never *really* thinking about what a waste it is. She could have done so much! Maybe jail will help her to grow up.

Okay, I’m Rainy Hilton.
Since this is speculation, I would hopefully have parents who taught me some values. As much as Paris irks me, I have to wonder how she was raised.
Okay, back to me. Forget Tinkerbell. Little dogs wearing matchng outfits and look like they are in need of anti-anxiety drugs are not for me. Now that I think about it, how many people do you know that live as good as Tinkerbell?? I believe…I believe…
But, wow, look at the teeny-weeny body I’ve got and how great those designer clothes are going to look on me!!
I, too, agree that with all that money there should be responsibility. Look at the Bill Gates Foundation or Oprah and her Angel Network. I’d like to do something about our homeless.
I’d have a house overlooking the sea, maybe in Maine or New Hampshire.
And the traveling I’d do. Sigh!

So looking over your list it sounds like you would be a sane responsible adult human being (only with more fame and money). Personally, I vote for Cindy taking over the role of Paris Hilton – she would certainly make better use of the gifts.
Is anyone else saddened by the fact that we all “know” Paris, a sad, selfish little no-talent do-nothing, but we couldn’t name all of the Supreme Court justices if you held a gun to our head?

Ah, but you are the exception Mary and I salute you. I still would wager if we asked 1000 people in the street to name them (or to name Paris Hilton’s dog) that the justices would not be the big winners in being identified.
