Maybe Auckland Has It Right About Paris Hilton…

I know usually TEN Gossip is light-hearted but I have been dying to do a snarky post. And this one has it written all over it. A company in Auckland, New Zealand put up this billboard to advertise that there was advertising space available to buy. And to me…I think that they chose the right way to go about it. Paris Hilton and the words Vacant.
I must admit that Paris can be smart but if you are looking for a sharp advertising point, they’ve got it. Now Paris’ manager is going after the company because they didn’t have permission to use her image on the billboard. I think they should just stroke it up to genius and go home.

I am mega-interested to see any examples of when Paris Hilton “can be smart”. I’m not arguing the point at all — I don’t know a lot about Paris, but I know what everyone seems to think about her. Is there any way I could get a reference to when she has demonstrated “smartness”? I’m really just mega-curious. Thanks!
I think that she is smart with her business ventures…She knows that her name can be used to sell things. Perfumes, clothes, really anything that she wants to make money off of would probably work. But other than that…I’m hard pressed to find an example. LOL
This company is engaging in unlawful business practises by using Paris Hilton’s tradwmarked name/image without her permission for monetary gain.
A smart person would know that. She should sue – because she is sure to win in any country.
