Do you know what Paris Hilton does for a living?

She gets paid to do things like go to clubs, and to do other things, and to be seen using products and services, for the purpose of promoting those things.

So, yeah, when your business can't attract enough attention on the merits of whatever it is, you pay Paris Hilton to be seen using it.

But, seriously, what is the point? "If you want to be as smart as Paris Hilton, buy (whatever it is this week)."

Investment advice from someone who inherited all their wealth? Yeah, that makes all kinds of sense.

What more reason do you need?

What more reason do I need to do what? What is the "reason" here? Paris Hilton bought crypto smoke, so I should buy crypto smoke?

Should I also have someone leak videos of myself sucking some guy's cock, because I want to be just like Paris Hilton?
