I seem to find myself writing about Paris Hilton a lot lately. Over on Bloomacious.com we conducted a hotness poll last week about the celebutant's image to see if she's still in - the result to date: about 83% of our readers don't think Paris still has it - but they were envious of her fantastic closet (Paris provided a video tour for MySpace recently that is mighty impressive).
Whether she's still red hot or not, she always seems to keep cropping up in the news, leaving us to believe that her publicist, Dawn Miller, has her work cut out for her on a fairly consistent basis.
Last week, I, and many in the PR world, were mighty amused by this squib which ran in SFGate's The Dish, and gives an overview of correspondence between Paris' representatives and People Magazine.
Paris started dating Doug Reinhardt (from The Hills) last year and has made quite a show of their relationship - even holding a press conference at the Cannes Film Festival in which photographers were obliged to snap the two in various stages of lip-lock (or pre-lock as above, taken just a few short weeks ago).
Of the relationship The Gate writes:
"...Hilton made it clear the romance is over on Wednesday, announcing through her representative that she is no longer in a relationship with Reinhardt.
The spokesperson told People.com, "In response to the inquiry on whether Paris Hilton has split up with Doug Reinhardt, yes, this is true they are no longer together. They remain friends and ask that you please respect their privacy."
However, despite the public confirmation of a split, it looks as though Hilton forgot to tell the most important person -- her boyfriend.
When quizzed about the break-up by E! Online, Reinhardt replied, "No, that's not true. Everything is OK between us.""
Yikes ... but this brings to mind another public dumping a few years back when Matt Damon announced he'd stopped seeing Minnie Driver on Oprah - without telling poor Minnie.
Oh well, that news is so last week, the Paris PR train has chugged into yet another station as she offers another (revealing) house tour via our pals over at Access Hollywood that has many buzzing:
