Paris Hilton says she’s going to be celibate for a year


In a pledge that she’ll probably forget next week, Paris Hilton confirmed to Britain’s Guardian that she plans on being celibate for an entire year:

We talk about shopping, entrepreneurialism and the future. Hilton had previously said she wanted to be a mother by now, but she recently announced that, after being in relationships for all her adult life, she is going to stay boyfriendless and celibate for a year. Why? “Just because I want to. I feel I’m becoming stronger as a person. Every time I have a boyfriend, I’m just so romantic, and I put all my energy into the guy, and I don’t really pay attention to myself.”

Now, she says, it’s time to take care of business and indulge herself in a few consumables. What’s the most extravagant thing she’s ever bought? “Erm … I just ordered the new Bentley convertible.” How much is that? “I don’t know - I didn’t ask.”

Paris says she makes her own money and deserves to be known for her, uh, fame, rather than her status as an heiress. She also brags about how gracious and sweet she is:

It annoys her, she says, when people suggest she’s got where she has because of her family. But it certainly helped in the early days, didn’t it? “Well …” Her voice momentarily breaks up and goes all Rod Stewart on me. “There’s a lot more to it than that because there are a million other heiresses I’ve heard of who don’t do anything with their lives.” So what makes her special? “There’s nobody else like me. Also, I’m a good person. I treat everybody great. I travel around the world and I’m better to the fans than any single person.” Better than anybody? “Yes.” She smiles beatifically. She often talks of her goodness.

Hilton was brought up a Catholic, and still attends church. “I think a lot of people forget where they came from and treat people bad.” The notion of her forgetting her roots sounds ludicrous, but I think I know what she means - she’s not talking inherited wealth, but achievement. As she says, more than once, “I don’t want to be known as the Hilton heiress, because I didn’t do anything for that.”

Paris dishes on Nicole in the article, saying that fame has changed her and that it “breaks her heart” while she’s stayed the same, vapid person all along.

Author Naomi Wolf calls Paris a “palette cleanser” and compares her bland sexy-innocent image to white noise:

“The pigeon-toed I’m-a-little-girl thing combined with the deliberate strategic convergence of pornography as entree into superstardom. She’s always smiling, she never says much of anything, she’s totally uncontroversial, she’s managed to create a construct that is completely explicitly sexually available and completely innocent and naive and girlish at the same time. She’s very soothing. It’s like white noise in an over-stimulated environment. Paris Hilton is like a palette cleanser. She’s like, as semiotics would say, an empty signifier, so you can project absolutely anything on to her, which is the perfect situation for branding.”

When told about Wolf’s assessment of her, Paris says she doesn’t know what it means, but that she thinks it’s “nice.”

While some people give Paris credit for her skyrocketing image, I believe her and think she’s just been the same shop-a-holic party-girl all the time.

Of course I don’t believe that she’s going to be celibate for a year, because chances are she said that in a brief two-week lull and will forget all about it when the next hookup presents itself.

Paris is seen in a new photoshoot by Dave Hogan, and posing with her sister, Nicky, on July 8th in LA. She is also shown shopping for prison shorts on July 7th. [via]

  1. Ok…i know paris is everybodys worst nightmare…a rich prissy blond hottie praising herself at every opportunity. BUT…i dont think shes the slut everyone thinks she is, yes she stared in a ‘porn film’ and yes shes had a few boyfriends but thats not that bad. At the time that guy was her boyfriend, and they were doing what most people in relationships do, i find it strange that people now call her a pornqueen or slut. Just an opinion, i know some don’t agree. I think she’s in love with herself and needs a little of lifes lessons but i think most of the time people bag her because everyone else does. Not because they think shes that bad.
