Imagine if Paris Hilton Hyped a Charity Instead of Being a Spectacle?
I am not impressed by Paris Hilton and I’m certainly not a fan of her actions.
Paris Hilton is going to jail - that’s the big news. Her stock will continue to rise as the bad-girl heiress does her 45 days in the pokey and the paparazzi go into withdrawal.
Now imagine the first photo of post-jail Paris has her wearing a t-shirt with a charity’s name and logo on it. I guarantee that photo will be on the cover of every tabloid in every grocery aisle in the world and will be seen by millions of people.
She is the main attraction in a 3 ring media circus that rivals the great P.T. Barnum’s animal acts in “The Gratest Show on Earth.” So why not be a billboard for a good cause? I know she’s wealthy, we all do. I am not saying, “Paris, share the wealth.” I know Cristal champagne is expensive.
All I am saying is that if she were to hype a charity, that charity would have an amazing opportunity to deliver its message to a whole new group of people. And countless people would benefit - at no cost to Paris.
