Meet Paris Hilton...the delusional pop star |

According to Simple Life Star , Paris Hilton , she is set to take the pop world by storm with her new album “Paris is Burning.�
“I loved doing it. I’ve always had a great voice,� she said recently.
“I’m an icon. You either have it or you don’t. It’s something you’re born with.�
I predict the critics will love the album but it will bomb at retail.
But that's just me, LATIMES continues the Paris Hilton Love with a piece asking if Paris will burn
Superstar DJ Paul Oakenfold, who remixed Hilton's song "Turn It Up," sums up the conventional wisdom about her singing: "I think a lot of people were expecting it to be a lot worse than it is."
Hilton has recorded an album's worth of material — 10 tracks — with Scott Storch, the producer behind hits for 50 Cent, Beyoncé and Dr. Dre. But the lineup keeps changing; she continues to outsource songwriting duties to new writer-producers such as Lukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald (who has worked with Pink and Kelly Clarkson) and recent Oscar winners for best original song, Three 6 Mafia.
It's impossible to ignore the perception that the heiress, 25, can pay as much as it takes to surround herself with hitmakers, all but guaranteeing the chart primacy of whatever she records. But according to Kara DioGuardi, who has penned hits for a constellation of Top 40 stars and who co-wrote three songs with Hilton, she seems to have found her musical niche.
"It's fun music, it's danceable, with elements of Blondie, a little reggae and great beats," DioGuardi says. "She has a very sweet voice, very breathy. It sounds exactly like what you would want Paris to be doing."
Which is to say Hilton doesn't totally stink. In an interview with The Times last year, Storch offered similarly qualified kudos: "She's actually got quite a musical ability. Her rhythm is better than a lot of people I've recorded in the past."
Even cynical journalists such as Village Voice gossip columnist Michael Musto, who traveled from New York to Los Angeles to interview Hilton for Out's cover story, begrudgingly admit to being won over by the international socialite and her music. "I've written a lot of negative stuff against her," Musto says. "I came to bury her and I've ended up praising her."

we were wrong about paris too - people can joke about her wealth and such like (as we did), but she is obviously talented; a normal rich chick would just spend her time spending money. She also knows a lot about medical cannabis and has a brain. We are hoping she will be recording with 'schmoo' when she is next in london, but even if she does not, good luck to her.
