Heiress Paris Hilton is either playing the Carole Lombard “dumb blonde” card, or is actually thick as a brick:
Why?  Because Hilton asked: "Who's Tony Blair?"

GQ magazine interviewed the dizzy dame and hotel heiress, who said she would not recognize the British Prime Minister. When asked by GQ if she fancied Tony Blair, a confused Hilton replied: "Who?"

Allegedly, after giving it “a think” she said: "Oh yeah... he's like your president?" Then admitted: "I don't know what he looks like."

Unimaginably, Hilton also compared herself to Diana, Princess of Wales. "I loved her. She was amazing….I just cried for two hours non-stop when I heard she had been killed.

"I've been in cars trying to get away from speeding paparazzi before and it's horrible, so I can relate to Diana and the problems she had," she explained.

Who she would most like to be compared to?  Hilton replied: "Marilyn Monroe mixed with Diana."

Elsewhere in the GQ interview, the 25-year-old heiress revealed how much money she takes in. Her income is derived from perfume and cosmetics lines, shoes and hotels, and she is paid millions in personal appearance fees.

"I went to Austria recently and got paid 1 million dollars just to wave at a crowd of people there. I had to say 'hi' and tell them why I loved Austria so much," she said.

Ach du lieber!  When asked why she loved Austria so much, she said: "Because they pay me 1 million dollars to wave at crowds!" 

The blonde fodder for the internet is crazy like a fox.

Why Paris should know who Tony Blair is, huh? Do you think she cares about politics? There are billions of girls like her!

That doesn't even make her a dumb blond!

You obviously knew I was exagerrating when I said 'billions'.

But you know what's funny? I know a girl just like Paris who didn't even know who the Prime Minister of my country (Canada) is, when I asked her.

Does that make her 'dumb'? Obviously, not! Because she doesn't give a damn about politics! Go ask any 'party' person, they wouldn't know who the PM of Britain is.

Ask Paris questions that are related to fashion, etc. But I, who is interested in politics, hardly know anything about fashion, unlike Paris because I don't care.

Forget Tony Blair. In a recent CNN Poll more than half of Americans said they didn't know where Canada is? The friendliest ally to us & people don't even realize Canada is in our own backyard - north border to the USA. So Parisite shouldn't feel stupid for not knowing who Blair is. Stupidity is common than we think. OMG, most Americans also don't know the name of President Bush's wife. Yup the woman married to the most powerful man on earth & people are clueless. Geez I betcha even Paris could get that one. NOT!

What baffles me is the fact that a dumb
idiot makes more money than a serious college-grad.
Oh well, life's not fair but the little guy
insists on paying idiots like her to have
a better life than us.

Mockeneiger = Jealous

If people are paying to her, they pay her for a reason, that's because they like her and what she presents to the public.

Paris is just like any celebrity out there. She makes her own money. Being a celebrity is her job. Why should she stop being one if she's successful at it, huh?

Live is unfair, and everyone deserve a better life. Except those who put an effort to do work hard, it pays off in the end...

You're comments and this 'news reports' along makes no sense at all.

Money can’t buy brains, Janet Mayer! Hah! Like as if Paris is suppose to know who Blair is.

Paris is a lucky girl.

You're comments don't reflect the reality at all, because you're just too jealous of her. However, the fact is that you can say all the negative comments you want about her, but she's earning much more than you are. She would be considered DUMB IF she had stopped her money-machine.

Afterall, Paris is smarter than all you think, but people just can't stand how successful this girl is, not because she 'sucks' at everything.

That's the reality that you don't want to face, dear hater.
