Book Description
"A lot of people seem to have the wrong idea about me. In fact, pretty much everything I read about myself is totally ridiculous.... I've finally decided to let the world know: Okay, I get it."

Paris Hilton has a lifestyle most girls dream about. Her name is on everyone's lips, but can she help it if she was born rich and privileged? Now, with a sly sense of humor and a big wink at her media image, Paris lets you in for a sneak peek at the life of a real, live heiress/model/actress/singer/it-girl and tells you how anyone can live a fairy-tale life like hers.

Featuring more than three hundred fabulous color photos of Paris, Confessions of an Heiress is a look at life from the unique perspective of a young woman who has the whole world at her stiletto-clad feet.

From Publishers Weekly
Heiress, socialite, model, actress, singer and media darling Hilton loves her life, knows how to get what she wants and matter-of-factly explains how anyone can be a glamorous, fun-loving, tiara-wearing heiress just like her. Bursting with photos of Hilton in trademark poses or with friends and family, her "confessions" are hardly scandalous, other than divulging that her hair is (gasp) naturally curly, she reveals few intimate details about herself, coyly referring to a famous scandal that once plagued her as "something I wasn't too proud of", but they display an energetic and earnest young woman fiercely loyal to her family and closest friends and determined to enjoy herself no matter what the consequences. Lightheartedly describing the "Paris Diet" (eat as much chocolate as you can, eat popcorn at night, never take diet pills) and admitting "I'm really bad about washing my face and using skin products," Hilton's indulgent and sometimes reckless lifestyle might not be sensible for everyone, but her advice to "channel your own inner heiress, create your own image, and project an extreme sense of confidence" is an empowering message for young women. Though much of the book consists of laundry lists of her favorite designers, body products, hair stylists, cities, etc., Hilton endears herself to readers by being the first to critique herself, even dedicating a chapter to photos of her fashion mistakes, and by encouraging aspiring heiresses, or girls who want to feel like one, to "always act like you're wearing an invisible crown. I do. And it's always worked for me."

And we care because......?, September 9, 2004
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　By C. K. Ogi (NW MO USA)

I checked this out for reasons I still am unsure of. What I found was exactly what you've come to expect from Paris Hilton: Walking away wondering 'Why the hell did I pay attention to this girl?'

Confessions of an Heiress is occasionally witty, (no thanks to the ghostwriter who ACTUALLY wrote this: Do we really expect she penned this herself. yeah, right! That would inevitably interfere with her partying lifestyle!) but really odd in it's view of a lifestyle that maybe 5 people can actually relate to.

I got the sense that Paris really wanted to give the audience a sense that she has some depth behind the party girl...but my impression was the 'depth' had the quivalent of a bird bath in August! I really think she's good at being a 'party girl' and an Heiress, because she hasn't been raised any other way. And the lifestyle she describes? Well, let's just say those millions of hers will make some plastic surgeon VERY happy some day.

Overall, if you enjoy listening to a spoiled Rich Girl prattle on about her life, and you want to help give Paris the impression that she is actually EARNING money, they buy her book. Otherwise...it just wouldn't interest the average adult reader, and could border on insulting anyone who earns their own living.

1. A sad, empty book about a sad, empty person, June 8, 2007
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　By B. Kerr "Georgia Grits" (Atlanta, GA United States)

Do not be fooled by a 3-star rating. This is an "either you hate it or you love it" book. The vast majority rated on the ends of the spectrum.

This bratty little girl is being fed by a sadly malnourished America. We'd be better to occupy ourselves with something that matters. Paris does not. She is the most useless, empty person I've seen in a long, long time. The only reason I'd pay attention to her life at all is to try and figure out where we've failed in instilling values in our citizens and what can be done to reduce or eliminate our celebrity worship. It's distressing, depressing, and pathetic.

About the book, I agree with the reviewer who said, "The writing is very simplistic, the tone is overly shallow, and there seems to be more pictures than words." It perfectly describes Paris Hilton herself: simplistic, overly shallow, more pictures than words.

Waste of money, waste of a life.


2. This book is hot!!!!, June 12, 2007
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　By B. Internacional "Hilary Crazy Fan" (Mexico DF)

Well, actually I'not saying this cause I'm a Paris fan, I wasn't when I read this book. It was from a cousin and I started to read the front page, and then the next, I simply couldn't stopped! I started to read the whole thing and it's one of my favorite books ever! Now I see her TV show, I have the DVD's, I haver her 3 perfumes for men, I have her record, I buy every single magazine in where she appears,'I'll buy a watch soon and can't wait for her world tour and her new stuff. She's releasing shoes, a clothing line, new handbags, jewerly, sunnies, wigs, new perfumes, OMG this gir is amazng, she's gone so far...

so haters, better start liking Paris because SHE CAME TO STAY!!!!!!
