Paris Hilton is a monster
No, really.

She is an extreme narcissist. So extreme she may have veered right on over to sociopath. Time will tell. This goes way further than "spoiled rich kid." Think George Bush (tho I really don't think even Paris is that bad -- but there are similarities in how they both see their importance and their right to have their way).

The judge took on a valiant task in trying to get her to see the error of her ways, and help her understand that yes, the law DOES apply to you too. But I realized today upon the screaming episode that it's probably a futile effort. If I'm even close in suspecting that she's a sociopath, then it's definitely a futile effort.

This will be one interesting person to watch as the years roll on.

1. A "monster" is a bit extreme
Doing time will relieve her of some of that narcissism.

3. i disagree with you-she will not be interesting to watch as the years roll on
and a monster? Spoiled, self centered, poor judge of whom to trust with a video camera--yes but until she starts sending troops into harms way or locks people up at GITMO i think labeling her a monster is a bit extreme.

18. Exactly. Let's not build up the resistance to the truly monstrous by using the
word cheaply.

4. Screaming Paris versus the screaming Vietnamese child covered
in Napalm. I had posted this in another thread...

The photo of Paris weeping in the back seat after her arrest was taken by Nick Ut, the photographer of the Napalm covered and fleeing Vietnamese child exactly 35 years ago today. Is that a bizarre coincidence or what? Crying Hilton versus a crying child of war. The sad thing is that this Pulitzer Prize winning photograph probably had a lot to do with our resolution to end the war, as it seared so many consciences. What a horific irony in a way.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/4517597.stm

Picture power: Vietnam napalm attack Vietnamese photographer Nick Ut describes the day in June 1972 when he photographed a nine-year-old girl, Kim Phuc, fleeing her village after a napalm attack - a picture that won him a Pulitzer prize. http://www.vietnamwar.com/phanthikimphuc.htm
The photo of Kim Phuc Phan Thi, as a burned child escaping from her Vietnamese village which has been bombed with napalm (8 June 1972) has travelled across the world and has earned the photographer, Nick Ut of the Associated Press a Pulitzer Prize. The photograph showed Kim - "the girl in the picture" - a nine year old running down the road in the village if Trang Bang. It was UT who took her to hospital. Kim's skin was so badly burned by napalm that she was not expected to survive, but after 14 month in a Saigon hospital, she returned to her village to begin rebuilding her life

9. that is quite ironic, and I really like the fact that the girl in the picture is an activist now.

5. Blah, Blah, Blah....
Monster? Sociopath? No, just a sheltered rich person. Not too hard to understand.

6. This might be hitting bottom for her
If it isn't, I don't hold out much hope she'll see her 30s through.

She really isn't looking well at all.

7. She's now forced to house with "“f*ckin’ hoodlums, broke, poor bitches from Compton
Edited on Sat Jun-09-07 12:58 AM by ariesgem
& public school bitches"

These are HER words. See the video clip. She is a monster and she feels nothing for us. In return, I feel nothing for her.

http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/105606/Possible_Racist_Paris_Hilton_Video_Surfaces_Online

Perhaps one of her personal items exposed on the Internet is a video clip that clearly shows Paris using both the N-word and the F-word during a social function.

In the footage, Paris and her sister Nicky are at a house party dancing by themselves to the sounds of Notorious B.I.G.’s “Hypnotize.” A male friend who dances in between them was referred to as a “faggot” by both Hilton sisters.

Then, at about 2 minutes and 45 seconds into the footage, Paris approaches the camera and laughs, “We’re like two niggers.”

The “Simple Life” star, who recently reunited with her black former best friend, Nicole Richie, steps to the camera again at about 3:55 to vent about a run-in with a woman at the party, whom she describes as a “f*ckin’ hoodlum, broke, poor bitch from like, Compton – public school bitch.”

To cap things off, the video ends with the videographer yelling, “Todd’s a thug nigga.”

12. A monster? No, just a fool.
All she's doing there is mimicking the hip-hop clubbing language that she thinks reflects the real world. She meets and parties with millionaire gangster rappers and copies the way they talk, thinking she's being real.

Calling her a monster is pretty harsh when based on a Dr Frist diagonosis.

Edited on Sat Jun-09-07 11:49 AM by Morgana LaFey
anything more formal than years of observation of the human condition as displayed by our celebrities and politicians to be able to identify a narcissist? It doesn't.

15. Very interesting. Thanks for posting.
She's looking more than a little anorexic in that video too, isn't she?

22. And some posters are suggesting she would have a great time
in prison if she was put in general population. Hello?
If she were to tell something like this to other inmates, somehow I doubt the outcome would be great for her.

8. She's not a monster.
She is to be pitied.

With all the power and privilige she was born to... Paris could have been someone. She could have been a heroine to a new generation of young women... made a contribution to society.

She's a nobody with money. To follow her antics after this would be a pathetic exercise in voyeurism.

13. A narcissist yes. A worthless member of society. Whoever
makes the baloney sandwiches they eat in prison has much more social value than PH.

14. PH is a victim of her upbringing.
Her parents spoiled her, allowed her drop out before she received her diploma, did not demand that she experience "work", did not expect community service or charity work. She was given plastic surgery to get the edge on being a celebrity. She has not had the opportunity until now to really experience responsibility and having to pay for her actions.

By contrast, look at Gloria Vanderbilt who was/is quite rich and managed to have a balanced life despite multiple marriages and affairs and witnessing her son commit suicide in front of her. She is humble, a businesswoman, and has a proud carriage.

All rich people are not vapid and vacuous. It just seems that the lastest crop of them are.

16. I agree with you
that Paris's upbringing was less than ideal -- she is living testimony to that. AND that not all rich people are despicable. In fact, unlike many here, I don't resent or begrudge her her wealth.

21. So is George W. ... at some point, people have to accept responsibility for their own development.
Even as children, we make choices ... choices to comply or reject the examples set by our parents. Making choices out of sheer reactionary ire is no more valid than complying obediently. We hold adults responsible ... unless they are deemed not capable and subject to incarceration and treatment. Some things aren't effectively treatable. Pathological narcissism is one of those things.

19. I, for one, cherish her celebrity.
She could be the Marie-Antoinette of our times. Think of all the spoiled socialites who are EXACTLY LIKE HER but whom the public NEVER SEES. Her psychotic urge to be seen and known could be the death-knell of her caste's regime.

20. A monster? No, more like an evil dust bunny under the bed.
Just ignore it. It won't go away, but it won't hurt you either.

23. Unlike Bush, she is a pathetic "monster". Bush is a dangerous "monster".
She appears to live in a very small world made of mirrors. Bush believes that he has a "great mission" to accomplish.

She only seeks attention and makes a fool of herself. Bush is a fool who is making the world a place of violence, starvation, disease, and fear.
