Promoters Won't Pony Up for Paris to Party

Tough economic times are hitting even the heiresses among us

Share

(Newser) – Partying in Cannes last weekend left Paris Hilton feeling, well, worthless. The socialite’s reps asked event coordinators to ante up $100,000 per appearance, but “no one bit,” one promoter told the New York Post. “They aren’t about to pay her. It’s not 2002.” Hilton may have gotten some cash from one club, “but everyone else is running for the hills,” the source said. So she appeared free—the horror!

Sounds like a fluff expense no one needs under the current economic cloud... I wonder too if her drawing power has been slipping? Reply
