What's Your Job, Paris? "Uh, Bein' Purty?"

We know how things work in Hollywood. You don't have to have any actual talent or skills or do any real work if you look pretty in a fancy dress and have name recognition. We're hip to their jive. But aren't celebrities at least supposed to give us working folk the impression that they deserve all that money and fame? Not if we're talking about Paris Hilton. She just, like, does stuff, y'know. Like breathe and smile and cash checks. Although she probably has someone to do that last part for her. Because, as Jenny from the Block taught us, it takes hard work to cash checks. And hard work is bad for the skin. Anyway, Paris Hilton doesn't know what a producer does. Even though she is one. Page Six says:

PARIS Hilton is trying to prove her work ethic. The heirhead is being sued for $8.3 million by Worldwide Entertainment Group, an investor in her 2006 bomb "Pledge This!" for allegedly failing to promote the film or its subsequent DVD release. But even funnier than the thought of Hilton missing a promotional opportunity is the deposition filed this week in Miami Federal Court. Hilton claimed, "Any chance I got . . . I would just bring it up," by saying, "Oh, my new sorority film, it's going to be sexy, it's going to be really hot girls." The hotel heiress was also a producer of the film, though she doesn't really know what that job entailed. She said, "I'm not sure what a producer does, but — I don't know, help get cool people in the cast."

Ah, we get the confusion. Rick Salomon must've told Paris he was a producer when he snagged her for the small, elite cast of 1 Night in Paris.
