Paris
Hilton Desperate to be Taken Seriously
3/4/08
Socialite Paris Hilton is urging the media to publicize all the work
she does for charity - in a desperate bid to avoid further ridicule in the
press.
The Simple Life star has posed topless for the current February (08)
issue of U.S. magazine 944, and revealed in the accompanying interview her
desire to be taken seriously, reports the New York Daily News.
The 27-year-old says, "It makes me angry because people don't know
the real me. Yes, I do get paid to go to parties. But when you see me at a
party, I'm always working or promoting something.
"I work with so many organizations, especially Children's Hospital
in Los Angeles and the Make-A-Wish Foundation."
The remarks came just days before the heiress was seen enjoying a night
out on Saturday (01Mar08) with a bearded spiritual guru, who appeared to
bless her after she paid a visit to the Bodhi Tree Bookstore in Hollywood.
