Alright my lovelies, we have something very important to discuss: Paris Hilton’s new single “Stars are Blind”.
Before we get into the song, let’s discuss my history with Paris Hilton. Actually, let’s take it one step further back and discuss my thoughts on the “blonde bombshell” celebrity.
I love Jenny McCarthy. I love her. I think she’s genuinely very funny. Not only can she do good comedy, but I think she’s creatively very funny also. Have you read her books? You should. Especially you mommy bloggers out there. They’re funny!
Next there is Pamela Anderson. While I don’t think she’s as naturally (Ha! Natural!) funny as Jenny McCarthy, I think she’s a genius for capitalizing on her status as a blonde bombshell to get an awesome career for herself. And in the interviews I’ve seen of her, she seems to have a great personality too. I love the way she is able to make fun of herself and her dumb blonde persona.
Now on to Paris Hilton. I hate her. (Read: HATE HER) She’s done absolutely nothing to get where she is now. She has zero personality. I heard her doing an interview on the radio the other day and the DJ asked her to tell a dumb blonde joke. She refused. Is it because she is defending herself and blondes everywhere? Or is it because she has absolutely no personality or sense of humor whatsoever? I’m leaning towards the latter.
Oh! And I was totally saying “That’s Hot” back when I was in college before she was famous. She stole it from me. That bastard.
Okay, finally, onto Paris Hilton’s new single. It’s good. Like, really good. Yes, yes, it’s purely bubble gum pop, but it’s good bubble gum pop!
However, there’s one thing that confuses me. It doesn’t sound a thing like her. I can’t detect even the slightest hint of her voice in the song. Although perhaps that’s only because she’s always talking with that fake, purring, “that’s hot” voice she always uses, and we’ve never actually heard her use her real voice.
But! Do you remember that episode of “Friends” where Phoebe got a record deal and filmed a video for “Smelly Cat”? And it turned out they didn’t use Phoebe’s voice, they used some other poor struggling artist woman’s voice instead?
Just sayin!

I too detest Paris. But I am drawn to her face. She has this oddly content and placid expression at all times. It freaks with my head!!

Have you taken up the crack? Jenny McCarthy, funny? Paris Hilton Song, good?
*sigh* Another one lost to drugs, obviously.

I really liked Jenny McCarthy’s show on mtv back in the day. There were some damn fine muppets.

I thought I was the only one who liked that song.
Makes me want to make out on a picnic table with a yummy smelling boy.
Yay for summer!
I think that song has made me retarded.
Worth it!

I think it is one of the great cultural tragedies of our time that there’s an appropriate ‘Friends’ episode for every situation. I’m not being critical, because I do it too, but it depresses me anyway.

Love Jenny McCarthy. I think she is just genuinely funny…
Pamela Anderson…can’t look at her without wanting to vomit…but I can’t totally diss her due to her work with PETA and animals and such…
Paris? PARIS FRIGGIN HO-TON? She is a vapid whore. Nuf said…

Jenny McCarthy is not funny.
That is all.

i guess when you have all the money in the world to spend on editing, you can sound like just about anyone you want. she sounds a bit like gwen stefani…

I can’t say I ever thought Jenny McCarthy was funny–she seems to cop out and use the “look at the pretty girl burp and fart” routine for me.
And Lotta you are SPOT ON with the comment about Paris–there is something strange about her expression all the time–she seems to be constantly SERENE. I guess with all that money—I would feel pretty damn serene no matter what was happening.
Has anyone seen the new “Surreal Life”? Weird—Paris and Nicole never interact even though they are in the same house!! You realize how much of that show is Nicole because the Paris scenes always fall flat!
