Paris Hilton Walks Out Of ABC Interview When Asked If Her ‘Moment’ Has Passed

video
» 43 comments

Want to get on Paris Hilton‘s bad side? Ask her if she’s old news. ABC’s Dan Harris sat down with Hilton at her home in Los Angeles to talk about her career, and whether or not low ratings for her latest reality show indicate she’s seeing the end of her “moment.” Hilton smiles awkwardly, looks off camera–taking direction from a handler–and walks off. As Harris described it, “after storming off, Hilton eventually returned to the interview after some cajoling to discuss her ideas about her own reinvention.” The interview–and the interruption–were featured on Wednesday morning’s GMA.

As ABC reports, Hilton–who takes pride in working despite her wealth–has seen a drop in interest in her life, as “frenemies” like Kim Kardashian remain in the spotlight:

The celebutante marketplace has become rather crowded since Paris Hilton burst onto the scene in the late 1990s. People like Hilton’s former protégé and sometimes “frenemy” Kim Kardashian have eating up a lot of the oxygen, with hit reality shows and a mountain of magazine covers.

While others may have usurped her role at the top of the reality television pecking order — her latest series, “The World According to Paris” debuted to a dismal 400,000 viewers on the Oxygen Network.

Watch it here from ABC News:

    I shouldn’t worry, Dear. Perhaps, you’re time will come back next week when Brisket’s passes.

    Her moment hasn’t passed.  A restless public is screaming for The Hottie and the Nottie Part II.

    Fact: I’m just glad to see any party girls in the politically correct society. Someone somewhere is getting mad about it!

    You have never had a moment and it shows.

    Once you’ve seen her get laid, it’s kinda difficult to settle for the mundane. She’s gotta step it up…maybe in the Tijuana genre.

    Paris Hilton best moments was when she was sucking an Mans P**IS any mans P**IS.  This useless piece of meat is a disgrace to all women…..This country is so screwed, to put this fool up to be admired!!!!!!!!!!  Only in America can a SLUT attain such notoriety!!!!  Pathetic!!!!

    It was a stupid question, if her moment had passed then why the hell are you interviewing her? News are about the New, if you think Paris Hilton is boring and has nothing new worth reporting, then don’t interview her!

    With that said, you Paris Hilton haters need to get a grip. Paris makes $3 to $5 million a year from product endorsements, fashion lines, TV commercials, perfume, and reality TV.  In fact, I have more respect for her than I do for the average parasite politician in Washington. At least she’s not stealing money like Obama and his friends!

    Why would a classy lady like Paris Hilton waste her time at a low-rent dump like ABC? She is much better than that.

  • GernBlanston

    That’s just a damn rude question for a man to ask a woman. It’s an obviously leading question. It’s like asking if she still beats her mother. Bad form ABC. Why not try being that hard on the people in power and leading our country down the tubes. When did Uncle Rupert buy ABC? Sad…

    She knows how to treat a man. Get over it!

    I guess you can relate to young mothers, since your’s was born in 1935, and you graduated law school in the sixties.   

  • Ann Onymous

    What kills me about this woman is that if you watch the interview and hear her use her actual voice, you realize its all an act.  That being said, she has no talent and yes, her “moment”, if there ever was one, has passed. 

  • Ann Onymous

    Nothing.  She hasn’t any.

    Maybe if you put your clothes on, you too could have your moment. As it is, no one believes you have any clothes.

    So she looks to her handler when she can’t answer a question as then walks off. Like that strategy is really going to work…OMG it did! We are reading all about here on Meidaite and the morning news shows! I wonder how much this poor reporter was paid to actually have to sit and “interview” her?

    hilton is a very old, very yesterday party girl. I guess she has nothing to sell now. We all get old, and grow and change and reinvent ourselves. But not her.  Sad but not unexpected.

    400,000 viewers on Channel 138 or something along those lines (on the systems which offer the network) doesn’t really sound like a dismal failure or a waning draw. Though to be fair, I don’t know the numbers for Oxygen’s other shows, but comparing the 400k to Keith Olbermann’s debut and his subsequent numbers, it sounds alright to me.

    Of course, I also have a pile of episodes in my Hulu queue and though I watched the first (via Hulu) to study its social networking aspects, I see the second is about to time out, so I can’t really speak about the show except to say that for me personally, it obviously hasn’t been must-see TV.

    Yeah I agree, you could get a good idea about the prevailing ideology on any thread by the thumbs.

    Dan Harris is a creepy, geeky little jerk. Looks like the love-child of Bill Maher & Andrew Sullivan.

    Paris looks extremely beautiful in that photo, nice. And she has way more on the ball than Dan Harris.

    Burn is right. If there was a voting system, I’d have thumb-downed so many comments on this article.

    Poor little rich girl. With the usual avenues of stardom exhausted—the sex tape, the reality show(s), the frenemies– in order for Paris Hilton to retain her celebutante status, I offer the following suggestions:

    1. Get pregnant and name the baby some ludicrous name such as Candy, Pear, Candy Pear, Cucumber, Lettuce, or something to that effect.
    2. Alter the register of your voice again; keep ‘em guessing
    3. Start stealing: worked for Winona and Lindsay
    6. Open your own Madame Tussands, but gather all your real-life worthless friends in a cage to fulfill your own exhibitionism and the public’s voyeuristic tendencies.

    Paris might be happy to know that at least one person out there doesn’t give a darn about Kim Kardashian either.

    Well her time has passed. She must be abiout thirty by now. That is not old but it is to old to literally show her ass all over the place. Who cares about a vapid dubutante that is over thirty?

    Actually age shouldn’t matter. That reporter was simply tacky, stupid and rude. Paris was irrelevant when she was in her teens, as all debutants are IMO.
