Paris Hilton On Fourth Of July


4th of July in America and Paris Hilton is in the headlines. How surreal and entirely dramatic the situation is. In this very significant day for Americans, Paris Hilton post a message in her MySpace blog and everyone suddenly listens. You’d wonder what she have to impart to the population and I thought it might just yet another controversial quip about her long-running feuds with other Hollywood teen stars. But it wasn’t. She said that everyone shouldn’t “drink and drive” and to be responsible enough to have a driver. I read further into this news and I was expecting that there’d be a catch to it, like she’s just mocking the Los Angeles traffic authorities. I later realized that she wasn’t being foolhardy this time. And this message is so worthwhile considering that vehicular accidents takes away about 1.2 million deaths worldwide annually according to World Health Organization statistics.



Ms. Paris Hilton did have a very worthwhile message to the public on Independence Day and if many had found this a little unusual, well I do not blame them. I too did found it entirely unexpected, coming from a rich man’s daughter who loves to party all the time and one who had frequent brushes with controversy for her atypical conduct.



Sexymom of the The D-Spot had most recently blogged how she adored Paris Hilton. She had expected her readers to be a little surprised and honestly I felt a little bit like that after reading that particular article by Sexymom.



Despite of it all, Sexymom could just be right for her sympathy to a very young women borne to extraordinary riches and a glittery culture where every bizarre happening could possibly happen, and even be bound to happen anyway, just like the sun going up and going down from the horizon. Ms. Hilton could have been trapped within a swirling way of life that only the unusual thrives and the simple-minded perish—-like in a dog-eat-dog world. She might just be exemplifying the cruel world that she lives in and now she’s crying out to the whole world.



Maybe like the news about her “finding God” while being incarcerated for two weeks inside a Los Angeles cell, Ms. Hilton had finally found redemption and realizes that it is really not ideal to live such a self-indulgent lifestyle that in the end, there is no virtue to it and that the only way to go is to have changes—-changes for the better.



This time, Ms. Hilton might just mean it and despite that I am not really into her celebrity or a fan of her of some sort, I’d be crossing my fingers for that. She could be a very effective agent for change to our youth—-to propel the idea of responsibility in the youth rather than the decadent individual that she had somehow exemplified in the past.
