     Paris Hilton is a great-granddaughter of the owner of Hilton Hotels, Conrad Hilton.  She is best known for her infamous sex tape in 2003 and her role in the television series called The Simple Life.  The show featured Paris and her childhood best friend, Nicole Richie as everyday people who worked in low paying jobs.  The show was a success and lasted for five seasons.  Her other notable series was MTV's Paris Hilton's My New BFF.  Paris is also a singer, model, author, and a fashion designer.  

     Paris Hilton is often labeled as a celebutante (a celebrity who is famous not because of talent but because of their inherited wealth and controversial lifestyle).  She might not be as talented as others but Paris is trying many different careers and is not solely relying on her wealthy background.  Paris is one of those celebrities that you either love or hate.  She made some mistakes in her early years but she is slowly maturing.  Paris has great fashion sense and can someday be a great fashion designer.
