Paris Hilton claims she is one of the hardest working socialites in the world.
"There's nobody in the world like me," she told the Times of London. "I think every decade has an iconic blonde — like Marilyn Monroe or Princess Diana — and right now, I'm that icon."
She added: "There's a lot of heiresses out there, and I don't see any of them doing what I've done."
On her successful image branding:
"I have so many projects — bags, fragrances, make-up. I go round the world every three days, designing and personally approving it all. I've got movies to make, a tour, TV shows. Every day of my life is scheduled until the end of 2007."

On celebrity feuds between her and stars like Lindsay Lohan:
"All those stories are made up. You know how shy I am ... Well, non-confrontational," she said.
"Certain girls just use me to get media attention because a feud with Paris Hilton always gets press."
So did this latest "feud" happen or not?
Paris Hilton's feud with Lindsay Lohan has kicked off - again.
The hotel heiress arrived at a party thrown by jeweller Lia Sophia at the
Polaroid Beach House, Malibu, and was furious to see her arch-rival was also
there.
Lindsay was happily partying on Saturday (07.15.06) with new love Harry Morton until Paris - along with her sister Nicky and Brandon Davis - arrived
and reportedly began making nasty comments about the 'Mean Girls' actress.
A source told America's New York Post newspaper: "Paris was hanging out. She
made it a point to whisper and laugh very loudly the entire time, snickering
behind Lindsay's back."
Lindsay was reportedly so upset by Paris' obvious attempts to intimidate her
that she stormed out of the room and dragged Morton with her.
The source also added that Paris was walking past Lindsay a few hours later
when one of Morton's friends pretended to kick Paris in the butt.
This is not the first time the 'House of Wax' actress has been seen laughing
at Lindsay's expense.
A few months ago Paris cackled as Brandon Davis attacked the actress and
branded her a "firecrotch".





Yeah, an icon like Princess Diana
This is old…...Like a couple of days
Just because you claim your an icon it doesn’t mean you are. It means your dellusional. Paris is a deseased ridden whore-bag skank. Nothing more, nothing less. She’s absolutely full of shit if she thinks for one minute she’s in the same league as the legendary Marilyn Monroe. What a stupid bitch!
She needs to seriously get over herself and go away forever already. She disgusts me.
I agree noneyabusiness!!! An icon?She must be out her damn mind!!!She can’t compare To Marilyn Or Princess Diana!!!
Awww Paris you make me laugh!
This chick is really delusional if she compares herself to Marilyn and Diana! She is NOT an icon, she is a tabloid freak. A train-wreck waiting to happen! Or has already happened!
She will never get the respect and admiration that “Princess” Diana had. Even Marilyn Monroe was a better actress and singer than her; and twice as pretty.
Marilyn lived in a different era; so what if she didn’t have a fragrance or hand bags. I think Britney, Charlize, and especially Madonna, are more iconic than this drugged out skank. She has one inflated EGO.
Every day of my life is scheduled until the end of 2007.
A peek into Paris’ Day Runner…
7/19/06, 4:00 pm: Get monthly STD check
7/20/06, 2:30 pm: Bikini wax - remember to wear good panties this time!
7/21/06, 11:00 pm: Stalk Lindsay Lohan (stop at Quik Trip to buy lollipops first)
Or:
7/20/06, 2:30 pm: Bikini wax - remember to wear panties AT ALL this time!
if she wants to be anything like marilyn monroe, then why dosent she die of an overdose already?
that would be nice.
Who are the people that are buying her perfume/music/make-up, etc? It’s funny how Lindsay says some of the same stuff. I think they hate each other because they are both so much alike.
She’s like the “icon” that shows up on our computer desktop that we realize we have no use for and delete it from our programs so we don’t have to deal with looking at it or giving it any more of our attention.
She’s an icon for every wanna-be hooker out there that couldn’t make a living having sex or an icon for any moron inspiring to be pure white trash with herpes.
Yeah… for Mac users, she would be the “trash” icon.
Does Paris even know how to SPELL “icon”?
She is no icon! But she does do alot even though we just see her as a whore she does have an album and perfumes, bags, sunglasses, clothes (i think) and other stuff so I am sure she has a busy schedule but that does not make her an icon certainly not Mairlyn Monroe!
“There’s nobody in the world like me”
thank god. if there were 2 of her i would take it as a sign of the rapture and that the world was coming to an end and god was going to visit his wrathful judgement upon all of mankind for ever paying this beast any attention.
If she means an icon for immaturity, stupidity, and whoreness, then yes, she’s an icon.
I think by “icon” she means she’s the pin-up girl on the STD testing posters down at the free clinic.
lol femme-fatale ‘remember to wear panties at all’...
she is an icon. that just shows you what the word icon means in 2006.
but she is right she has done a lot with the branding…not bad for someone who is only 25 of corse the timing helped
What exactly does Paris Hilton considered work? All she does is act like a complete dumbass on National TV ie; “The Simple Life”. To compare herself to Marilyn Monroe & Princess Di is a complete insult. (I know Marilyn was a slut, but it is still insulting) They have to be hitting cartwheels in their graves. Paris, to me, is this century’s Zsa Zsa Gabor, who was a rich, good for nothing slut that was famous for abso-freaking-lutely nothing. She is so annoying & she needs to go away quickly!!!
