My Take
I think Paris Hilton is one of the most misread figures in modern celebrity. The tabloids handed her Razzies and ridicule, but look closer and you find a businesswoman who understood personal branding a full decade before social media made it a profession. Born into the Hilton name, she could have coasted; instead she built fragrances, ventures, and a self-aware persona that turned mockery into revenue. The proclaimed It Girl of 2001 essentially wrote the playbook every influencer now follows. I respect anyone who outlasts the joke made at their expense — and she has, decisively.
