A Well-Intentioned Hotel Heiress Turns The Tables On Today's Nefarious Celebrity-Industrial Complex
By now, we realize that we were "pap'd" by the Paris-and-Guru photo opportunity a few weeks ago, which was orchestrated by the devious media mastermind Ashton Kutcher and broadcast on Sunday night as part of his new show Pop Fiction. In the clip above, we watch Paris engage in her pre-hoax therapy-style production meeting, where she states that there is a "time and place" for all the paparazzi attacks launched against her, but that she has become exhausted by all of the unwanted attention. In order to put the papps in their place, she decided to combat all the unwanted press and guerilla forces NOT by avoiding attention, but rather by hitting some of her favorite hotspots with a mint-addicted healer impersonator in tow. That'll show em!
Dressed in a very sleuth-y beige trench and armed with a woman-of-mystery asymmetrical hairstyle, Paris and "Maxie" take to the streets, skillfully ignoring the small contingent of the dozen or so paps pressing inquiries ("What's up?"). But somehow the undercover counter-attack doesn't strike us to be quite as savvy and genius as Paris and the Anna Nicole Smith idea robber Ashton Kutcher thinks it is. After coyly remarking in the car, "I'm just curious what they're gonna make up," Paris pretty much answers her own question with, "Who. The hell. Is that. With Paris. So. Random." Yup, you really slammed the press with this elaborate set-up, you minx, you!
