Paris Hilton’s latest biographer, who spent more than a year studying the world’s most famous “celebutante,” says he just feels sorry for her.
Biographer Jerry Oppenheimer, author of “House of Hilton – From Conrad to Paris: A Drama of Wealth, Power, and Privilege,” said Hilton, 25, has made herself into the IT girl of this decade, attracting scores of copycat fans.
He also noted that the spoilt brat image of the partying and rich-girl has pissed off many others and what is worse for these people is that he thinks she will be around for a lot longer yet.
He began feeling sorry for Hilton when he came to believe that her mother and maternal grandmother pushed her into using the family name and an exhibitionist streak to become a celebrity.
In a case of living your life through your children, having a grandmother Oppenheimer calls the “stage mother from hell,” pushing her daughter into a modeling and acting career that never really took off.
Since Paris hit the spotlight, her mother has appeared as the host on the reality television show “I Want To Be A Hilton” in an attempt to cash in on the fame of the oldest of her four children. But the show was criticized and had a limited run.
In what Oppenheimer calls a “bizarre family” he says that Paris’ parents were ok with the infamous sex tape as it helped launch her ‘career‘.
Oppenheimer says it is hard to know where the real Paris begins, with her “heiress tag” itself being a sham and the concoction of clever marketing. He claims Paris stands to inherit very little from the Hilton empire nad that like the rest of us, she has to work for a living. [Source]
