NBC has agreed to pay Paris Hilton $1 million for her first after-jail interview which will appear on the “Today” show. Paris agreed to the interview, but said she’d only speak with Meredith Vieira because of “disparaging” remarks her co-host Matt Lauer made about her. ABC execs are pissed at the news because they were expecting Paris’ first interview to go to Barbara Walters.
Although the real loser in all this is America. Paris Hilton is basically getting paid $1 million for 23 days of jail time. Man, I really should have tried harder to secure this Paris Hilton interview. Wait, what do you call it when you repeatedly hit somebody with a bat? Interview, right? Isn’t that called an interview?

First!
Yourfairytale | June 21, 2007 at 1:32 pm
Right. Because what Paris really needs right now is more money. This world makes me puke sometimes.
soso | June 21, 2007 at 1:32 pm
UNFUCKINBELIEVABLE. Who gives a shit about what she has to say?!?!?!?!?!??!
so | June 21, 2007 at 1:33 pm
So let’s see.. 1 million bucks divided by 23 days..
That’s $43,478.26 a day.
cha-CHING!
and the sick part is.. she doesn’t need the money.

Nice “Pippi Longstocking meets Harry Carey” picture.
JumpinJ | June 21, 2007 at 1:36 pm
In the name of everything that does not suck, please… for the love of everything… please don’t watch this. And tell your friends and family not to watch. Tell complete strangers on the street not to watch. If Paris can do just one thing in the world that’s positive, it’s to completely ignore Paris Hilton. It’s not world peace, but it’s a start.
Fishstick | June 21, 2007 at 1:36 pm
Please, God, let her be ass-raped in prison….please…please….
Kris | June 21, 2007 at 1:37 pm
Wow.
Daisy | June 21, 2007 at 1:37 pm
What insights into the prison system could Paris Hilton impart? LOLOL! I can’t stop laughing. The joke is on NBC for forking over 1 million dollars. They could put the money in a paper shredder and get the same results.
lambman | June 21, 2007 at 1:38 pm
And that’s why NBC is #1 in the ratings!!!
oh wait….
Smelly Gostard | June 21, 2007 at 1:38 pm
Well, I know it’s sick, but I must admit that I am curious to see if she’s skinner than Nicole after her “no food ’cause I don’t want to poo” food strike.
MrSemprini | June 21, 2007 at 1:39 pm
I heard she was gonna change her name to Staidina. Cool…

MSNCreate | June 21, 2007 at 1:41 pm
Good LORD. So much for justice. What the fuck.
collielee | June 21, 2007 at 1:41 pm
oh she sucks so hard. at this moment i vow to never watch NBC Today ever again. who is going to start the grassroots boycott. the sad thing is the only way we can get away from paris is when she is locked up. i bet you Meredith will ask some insightful questions like, “paris, were you lonely?” ugh, i need a shot of whiskey to relieve the pain.
Jimbo | June 21, 2007 at 1:44 pm
What the fuck could she possible say that is worth $1 million dollars? The dumb cunt was locking in her cell for 23 hours a day by herself. Is she going to being all of her dot to dot books and show all of the pretty pictues she did?
hahaha | June 21, 2007 at 1:50 pm
People, are you all still trying to compare Paris Hilton with yourself-nobody, how pathetic of you. She’s a CELEBRITY and I hope you realize by now that even if she just sits there and picking up her nose, she still gets paid for it. Those people live in a different parallel world with us, stop wasting your time judging her. She don’t give a shit for anything you got to say.
haha | June 21, 2007 at 1:55 pm
NOTHING THAT COMES OUT OF HER MOUTH IS WORTH $1 MILLION. HELL IF I COULD PUT ANYTHING IN HER MOUTH I WON’T PAY $1 MILLION!
Ryan | June 21, 2007 at 1:55 pm
She should have to give that money to charity or something. I can’t believe people actually care about what she has to say. The media is trash.
mr gossip | June 21, 2007 at 1:56 pm
I was worried that Paris wasnt making enough money while in jail. Im so happy to see everything is working out for her, yet again. Im sure she’ll put the money to good use though. http://www.hiltonbehindbars.com
HerpesHilton | June 21, 2007 at 2:00 pm
That sucks.
to hahahah: get a life, go to jail, whatever u feel like but just stop being such a cunt.
she might be famous but only for bad reasons,
let her get her million dollar, and all the money she wants, that’s all she will ever get in her entire life: bucks bucks and nothing else. she aint worth anything else, and really poor is the one who thinks that your wealth is what make u worthwise.
I def wont watch that interview, no one should! except on youtube, just dont give her the ratings.
me | June 21, 2007 at 2:00 pm
what a joke… definetly gonna boykott that. what a fucked up world.
sparkles13 | June 21, 2007 at 2:02 pm
Must be nice. I went to jail and all I got was shanked.
Snarkington | June 21, 2007 at 2:04 pm
I’ll interview her with a hatchet.
lostpoem | June 21, 2007 at 2:06 pm
Why is NBC ignoring all of the other “celebrities” who have been in jail and/or prison? This smacks strongly of discrimation, people… Somebody should start a class-action lawsuit on behalf of all those neglected celebrities who’ve done time but never got a million bucks for their tell-all interview describing the journey through terror, pain, depression, self-anger, acceptance, and finally redemption and self-discovery through imprisonment. Come on, Al & Jessie– where are you on this one?!?
Fishstick | June 21, 2007 at 2:06 pm
#25: Why? She’s already got a nasty gash!
MrSemprini | June 21, 2007 at 2:06 pm
Usually, you meet some pretty interesting people in stir, but now, I gotta really rethink going back in at all… I mean, what if I got stuck in the same cell as Pete Doherty? Man, that’s scary…
G AutoInsurance | June 21, 2007 at 2:06 pm
and guess who’s gonna find the insurance…that’s right…all the hard cases…
Wanky | June 21, 2007 at 2:09 pm
the sad thing is that most people are going to watch this despite hating her skank ass
James | June 21, 2007 at 2:09 pm

Binky | June 21, 2007 at 2:11 pm
Boycott NBC. Boycott the sponsors of their shows.
Is there not a law about profiting from your crime down there ?
(Ummm… I beginning to get a bit worried about the neighbors )
PsychoChild | June 21, 2007 at 2:11 pm
~Lets be honest, we all knew something like this would happen…Damn the Media!!!!!!!!!
If that’s jail and it’s consequences of being in one, Lets all go out and DUI!
Sad world…
Bob the Builder | June 21, 2007 at 2:14 pm
Boycott NBC
GWENDOLYN HONEYDEW | June 21, 2007 at 2:14 pm
She sucks at spelling, but I tell you one thing! She’s smart enough to get that money! Cudo’s to that Paris Hilton, for being smart enough, to make those duckies!
Bern | June 21, 2007 at 2:15 pm
I just vomited on myself.
Michael Johnston | June 21, 2007 at 2:15 pm
omg! 1 million dollars. she’s getting paid half as much more for this one interview than lindsay was paid for mean girls. go PARIS!
who doesn’t want a million extra dollars in their account though, seriously?
…Michael.
Bryce | June 21, 2007 at 2:16 pm
Put out a $1 million contract on Paris!
And have a show where she is followed about as she hides and tries to avoid being killed. I’d watch that. Especially the series finale…
Quinn | June 21, 2007 at 2:16 pm
1 mil… pft that’s chump change. She could spend that in a weekend of partying
sikofdis | June 21, 2007 at 2:17 pm
She looks like a fucking retard in that picture…
I hate this cunt more than I previously believed to be possible. I wish I had a million dollars so I could hire someone to kill her by setting her on fire. Wouldn’t that be cool?!?
Gringer76 | June 21, 2007 at 2:18 pm
Must be a slow day. We’ve only got two stories and (surprise, surprise) they’re about the wonder twins, Paris and Britney.
*yawn*
missj | June 21, 2007 at 2:19 pm
Paris Hilton wins again! America is such a douchbag. Pathetic
bikingbill | June 21, 2007 at 2:22 pm
Here’s a awesome game where you try to free Paris from jail by catapulting her from Prison to Rodeo Drive:

Enjoy

Go to the select a show drop box and choose “Other”. It will turn into an email form where you can tell them they suck and you won’t be watching. If you so choose.

Can’t wait~ .. literally. So I can see who is sponsoring the interview….I want to know the products that I’m no longer going to purchase..

Paris knows the word “disparaging?” I don’t believe it.
