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?

    She should be shot. Or at least become jail bait.

    If Paris were a good girl (what she is not), she would send that money to poor people, children institution, or something like that..
    She doesn’t need that money. MY GOD.

    Kiss Kiss*

    P.S.- Probably the money will go to Chanel, Balenciaga, MiuMiu, Louis Vuitton, .. -.-

    I think I just lost whatever respect I had left for NBC, which wasn’t much.

    How truly pathetic. The Today show used to be a news show worth watching. They must be really desperate now that Katie’s gone..oh wait! She was over paid, too!Must need to do something with all the extra cash! 23 days..a cool million…wonder what Charles Manson is worth? He’s been in jail since 1969.

    krazihottkelli, I’m pretty sure I want to hit you with a shovel as hard as I want to hit Paris.

    Yes, the real underlying issue here isn’t the debasement of our media and our failing social pride, it’s whether or not you can watch a teen-oriented soap opera.

    Why do they keep letting you idiots breed?

    Just saw a headline today that NBC News is denying the entire story, saying that they never pay for interviews. Apparently ABC leaked the rumor to the NY Post who ran with it.
    Making news up when there is no news … that’s what they do best.

    Unbelievable…the money should be donated to charity, shame on NBC! As far as Paris and her parents are concerned, they still have not accepted the fact that she is a CRIMINAL. I have heard nothing but how it is unfair and unjust and she shouldn’t be treated this way. She is the WORST KIND OF CRIMINAL, the kind that doesn’t give a hoot and I really doubt that she got the message because I have yet to hear her say she screwed up and could have killed someone. She has no respect for ANYONE. Not even her parents because she has single-handidly force the name HILTON into the gutter.

    Looks like Paris Hilton will have the last laugh. We’ve been foiled again, world! Arg!

    NBC may get the first interview, but which of Paris’ boyfriends will get the first, well… you know. Check out the Paris Hilton Boyfriend Archive here:

    I agree with #18, no matter who dislikes Paris it doesn’t matter, she is still not an average person, she’s a celebrity, and she makes that money because people pay it. Same to #62 and #64, total agreement. To #48, ANYONE can write their own opinion, that is what this here little comment box at the bottom is for, dumbass. To all the others that are so angry, if your life is SO HORRIBLE because of Paris, maybe you should: a. stop reading about her, no one forces you to. b. stop talking about her, if she upsets you so much why makes yourself miserable. c. freeze your body and wake up in a time period when she is no longer around, because she is not going away whether you like it or not. Deal with it.

    I heard on the news that NBC is not going to do the interview after all. Yay!

  14. I pray the Lord Jesus will have His Blessings upon your Soul…
    Upon leaving the place where you are today, remember how you are talking about Jesus today… for your life in the future, don’t let Him down…. Amen!!!
