Woman of the Year award yesterday.
The hotel heiress was cheered by hundreds of screaming fans as she was
handed the accolade by the university’s 132-year-old Harvard Lampoon
magazine on the steps of the Lampoon Castle in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
She said: “Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine standing here, standing
on the steps of the Harvard Lampoon. It's really exciting and I've had such
a great time! You guys are so hot! Harvard’s so hot!”
Lampoon member Hayes Davenport explained the reasons behind choosing Paris
for the honor, adding: “The choice was pretty easy when you think of who's
had the most profound effect on our lives.”
Paris claimed best friend Nicole Richie was with her, but when onlookers
tried to catch a glimpse of Nicole, Paris laughed: “Just kidding – she’s in
Los Angeles with her new baby!”
The Harvard Lampoon Woman of the Year award spoofs the university’s Hasty
Pudding awards, where the undergraduate drama company honor their woman and
man of the year.
Charlize Theron has been named Woman of the Year and will collect her award
today, while Christopher Walken will receive his Man of the Year
prize on February 15.
