Paris Hilton a Business Genius?
By Trycja August 11, 2007It is amazing how dynamic software news can be if it comes to Lindsey Lohen, Nicole Richie or the queen of entertainment Paris Hilton. Especially, then, if you think Paris Hilton cannot shock us anymore. Holly cow, she always finds her way to “bejewel” the front pages! Then, who could better copycat Paris’ talent unless Nicole Richie, or Lindsey Lohen? – It is impressive; they are excellent students if it comes to entertainment. How do they do that?
Students of my “Introduction to Journalism Tutorial” who like Paris Hilton, argue she were a business genius. “How come that she makes money out of nothing?” they said. Only a genius comes up with such an idea. If you really think that Paris Hilton is a genius, I have to disappoint you. She isn’t the true genius who deserves all the credit by herself. She is just an actress of a well-elaborated concept.
To throw light on the business-genius sort of thing, you have to acknowledge Paris’s management, and the Hilton parents. I suppose you’ve have forgotten about them. They have been the key to her success. Her management has developed her identity. As a child of a very wealthy and successful family, the Hilton’s, she was forced to make some money, too. Even though, she is an heiress. Since she has acted like a teenager, celebrating and clubbing around, and has not shown a tiny interest in real business, her lifestyle has become a new profession by the help of her management.
Indeed, it is possible that Paris has matured since she has tried out different business. She has promoted her own perfume “Paris Hilton”, recorded her own album “Paris”, and acted in many films such as The House of Waxes, Meat Pie, and so on. By writing an autobiography “Confessions of an Heiress” and performing in “One Night in Paris”, “Simple Life” and so on, she has really provided an insight of herself. Congratulations.
Believe it or not, but a bunch of people were behind Paris’ projects, otherwise she would not be such a ‘good’ business woman. If she really had been a serious business woman, she would not have ended up in jail for drunk-driving. As icon she has really the power to enflame naivety and to get into trouble. However, the society is addicted to her simplicity and there is no wonder that she can gain money out of nothing. It’s in your hands to stop her. Otherwise, we the society thank Paris and her management that her portrait of nature becomes accessible to us.
