Networks to Paris Hilton: Thanks, but not thanks!

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Paris Hilton appeared to be a celebrity without a spotlight on Friday after two major U.S. television networks snubbed the hotel heiress they initially fought over for a first post-jail interview.


An ABC executive said his network declined interview offers from the multimillionaire socialite after Hilton and her mother, Kathy, personally sought to secure a deal in a flurry of telephone calls to ABC News veteran Barbara Walters.

Meanwhile, rival network NBC issued a statement saying it, too, had informed Hilton's representatives that it was "no longer interested in pursing an interview with her."

=====================================================================================================

Maybe La Hilton can contact the Pope.

2. I'm sure Miss Seacrest will pick up the phone.
He's got his lips attached to her ass already.

5. I think that's partly why the networks are no longer interested.
She keeps blabbing on Seacrest's show, so there's not going to be anything very revelatory to tell in a TV interview. For someone who's made a career of working the press, that's awfully stupid on her part.

6. How much you wanna bet ..
she gets out Monday after midnight.

They said Tuesday. But I think LASO wants to TRY and throw the press off. Who's the city councilman for that area? She doesn't live in the actually city of West Hollywood, but in LA. He's under pressure from her neighbors to keep the paparazzi and press out of the area.

Wanna go camp out and hold a candle light vigil?

8. Oh, dear god, I hope not.
The helicopters the day they hauled her ass back to jail woke me up at 5 a.m. I do not care to do that again.

Did you hear that her animals have been running loose, and that her cat was run over and killed? :-(

Of course we all know and love him as Gram! That is the best picture ever of Gram, and he is wearing his Nudie Cohn suit.

13. He's one of my favorite songwriters
Have you seen the documentary "Fallen Angel"? Lots of good interview footage with his family members and various people who played with him (including Emmylou). Quite cool!

And I love those Nudie suits!

:hi:

10. Thank goodness.
Though the fact others made an outcry after they had their fight over the post-release interview isn't going to be forgotten either.

It was just bad taste that prompted NBC and ABC to go after such a non-story.
