I’ve cogitated on this whole Paris Hilton, Kanye West, Kim Kardashian love triangle and finally reached a conclusion.
Question: Does Kimberly owe Paris a public apology? Kanye did it, should she follow suit after possibly breaking girl code by being a backstabbing, social climbing hoe?

This is the claim that’s been made against her, after I pointed out based on the rappers ‘Dark Fantasy’ lyrics, the early aughts bad girl hit it first. Kimberly, at the time of the incident, was merely Paris’s assistant. Prompting Kanye to apologize for his social faux pas, lusting after the help and regretting his choice of baby mama (read Co-Signed By Kanye: Him, Paris & Kim).

Fact: Paris Hilton built TMZ, reigning in a time before social media. Kim Kardashian worked for her, traveling almost everywhere together. Paris was the star. An old money hotel heiress with social connections ranging from old Hollywood legends like Zsa Zsa Gabor to present. Unlike Kimberly she didn’t need anyone to break into exclusive circles.

Fact: Along with best friend and partner in crime Nicole Richie, daughter of music icon Lionel Richie, Paris did the reality television gambit first. The Simple Life was mega.

Fact: Paris Hilton’s fame skyrockets with the release of infamous sex tape ‘One Night In Paris.’ Kris Jenner & Kim Kardashian follow suit, releasing their own porn starring Kim and ex-boyfriend Ray J. Everyone said they were behind the leak, from attorneys involved to her co-star ex. Never forget they robbed Ray J’s mom Sonja Norwood.

Fact: Paris Hilton joined the beauty industry first with her perfumes. Kimberly started out the same exact way, before expanding into makeup and skincare.

Fact: Paris got into modeling and fashion first, after being spotted by photographer David LaChappelle. Statuesque, the heiress has the height, facial structure and serves body.

Fact: Paris got into music first, Kimberly dabbled and failed. While ‘Stars Are Blind’ became a hit, I do not remember anything about ‘Jam (Turn It Up).’

Fact: Paris Hilton got into acting first from commercials to horror film ‘House Of Wax.’

Fact: Paris Hilton fucked Kanye West (and Travis Barker) first.

Verdict: Not trying to add to the drama I started, but I rule in favor of Paris Hilton. She’s definitely owed a public apology from Kimberly. While imitation is a form of flattery, this is a violation of being. Everything Paris did Kim copied, like taking another country’s resources as your own. Paris Hilton is the blueprint, without her there wouldn’t be a Kardashian Jenner empire. While they bought TMZ, paying them to publish whatever they say, without Paris’s wild antics (along with Lindsay Lohan & Nicole Richie) the media outlet wouldn’t exist. Their rockstar behavior is what we tuned in for. The Kardashian Jenner’s ruined it through commercialization, taking away their credibility. Had Instagram been around in the time of Hilton’s reign, she’d undoubtedly have the larger fan base. Furthermore, Kanye West, who she fucked first, is the sole reason Kim’s family has any social standing within the art and fashion industry, before draining and discarding him. People didn’t want to dress fame whore Kim, rightfully so. Paris was the victim, having nothing to do with the release of an intimate moment. Whereas Kim Kardashian debased herself for attention, then lied about it for sympathy. Something that family does time & time again. Most of us don’t believe she was robbed in France. When you’re a spectacle with no talent or originality, manufacturing drama is the only option to stay in the limelight. 100% Kimberly needs to apologize, she used both Paris and Kanye to social climb, taking everything from them on the way up. The girl had no style until her ex-husband gathered her; Paris gave us signature looks effortlessly, from Juicy Couture tracksuits to pet accessories. As a blueprint myself, that shits annoying, having parasites siphon your swag constantly and take the credit. Raise your hand if you’ve been a victim of the Kardashian Jenner’s leech like, Leatherface behavior. Just take my fucking skin and wear it. Via: Vanity Fair
