Paris Hilton, Hollywood persona non grata


I don't know if you've been paying attention lately, but Paris Hilton has been getting snubbed by Hollywood elite pretty frequently as of late. There was that weird story about her being snubbed by someone at Elton John's (I think it was his) Oscar Party. I can't remember where I saw this story, and I'll post a link to it if I find it, but basically she wanted to get some face time with someone in the Hollywood elite and they did not want to talk to her. Paris retaliated by taking a bite out of several hors d'oeuvres and then putting them back on the tray.

Then there is the fact that she and her family were banned from the Vanity Fair Oscar party just because they are undesirable. I see where Graydon Carter is coming from, but was it really necessary to say, "The only Hilton we'll allow in is Conrad Hilton, in an urn." Ouch.

Now Page Six reports Paris may be banned from Elton John's future Oscar parties because she did not pay the suggested donation of $2,500 guests pay to attend the party (technically it is a benefit gala for The Elton John AIDS Foundation).

But the biggest blow of all - UsWeekly won't run stories on her in the magazine. Since Paris Hilton is famous simply for being famous and doing retarded things while being famous, UsWeekly can kind of make or break her, so this seems like a pretty big deal.

The Page Six story quotes a source saying, "She even got into a huge fight with Stavros [Niarchos] at their Oscar party, and they didn't put it in the magazine," sniffed another source. "It's all for show and to get press anyway. And she doesn't sell. They will run pictures of her, but that's about it."

Sucks to be Paris Hilton.
