Via DC Media Girl. Paris Hilton, after describing her occupation as (amongst other things) a “brand” (of hotel?), reveals she knows nothing of the blogosphere:
Q: So all of this — the partying, the modeling, the reality show — was just your journey to an acting career?
HILTON: Yeah, I guess.
Q: Do you read what’s written about you? Do you pick up the tabloids?
HILTON: I don’t read any of it. I just look at the pictures to see what I was wearing last week and if it was cute.
Q: Do you read blogs?
HILTON: What’s that?
Q: Um, they’re these things on the Internet where people write about news and stuff.
HILTON: No, I don’t really read anything on the Internet except my AOL mail. I don’t like people who sit on computers all day long and write about people they don’t know anything about.
Q: Paris, you just described my job.
(Her publicist, Rob Shuter, laughs.)
Q: What did you want to be when you were a little girl?
HILTON: A veterinarian, but then I realized I could just buy a bunch of animals.
I think she knows nothing of ANYTHING.

Paris Hilton blogging is never noteworthy – it’s my small contribution to exposing the culture of celebrity.

I must admit I genuinely find it hard to believe people are that stupid. I mean it. I suspect they are putting on the airhead bit for a laugh and that journos puts lot of effort into making them look silly. Or am I just a grumpy old serious guy who is out of touch with the modern world.

That’s my reading as well, Francis, Paris affects stupidity because it’s cashable as her “brand”. It makes you reflect on where the real stupidity lies.
