Paris Hilton boasts about her earnings

Paris Hilton may like you to think she’s blond and ditzy but this ex-con earned $187 million last year and is not shy to let you know about it!

“I’m developing my own hotels, casinos and clubs and getting into real estate. It’s crazy at such a young age. I’m doing so much.”

Paris’ inheritance from her family and the Hilton hotel chain is worth around $46 million, while she earns $15 million a year for her role in US TV show ‘The Simple Life,’ in which she stars with friend Nicole Richie.

The 26-year-old socialite’s perfume and jewellery collection brought in $1.8 million each last year, while she collected $18.7 million for personal appearances.

Paris can charge $90,000 a time just for showing up at her favourite haunts and is once believed to have been paid $1.2 million to wave to a crowd in Australia for 20 minutes.

Her book, ‘Confessions of an Heiress,’ and debut pop album, ‘Paris,’ further boosted her earnings, as did a stuffed version of her pet dog Tinkerbell and advertisements for Dream Catcher hair extensions.

She even pockets money from the slogan “That’s Hot!” after trademarking her favourite exclamation.

Paris also collects an estimated $3.75 million a year from the infamous sex tape, ‘One Night In Paris,’ she made with ex-lover Rick Salomon.

The blonde dropped a lawsuit against him in return for half of the profits made from sales.

    according to forbes she earned $7 million in 2006 – these other numbers are complete crap.

  2. Brent Fulberry

    Paris SHOULD boast about her earnings if she wants to.

  3. PHHate

    Needs to lie to make herself feel better about herself, what an absolute loser.
