For the umpteenth time we get our noses rubbed in how the upper classes get paid to be drunk and crash cars. If you want the services of Paris Hilton and her posse, it will only cost you $200,000 and all the booze she can tank..
Apparently, Vegas restaurants and other fashionable venues are vying for her (and other) celebrities as it puts them squarely in the crosshairs of unlimited publicity.
I’m thinking we can do this, I can play a “Fish Hoochie” in my sleep. I’m not thinking Vegas and Rodeo drive, more like Alaskan fly out lodges and the Bristol Bay bed and breakfast scene.
It’ll require a bit of acting as we have to practice the “my cell phone isn’t working” whine, and call room service to remove an unwanted mosquito or two, but the trip and liquor will be gratis.
We don’t even have to be famous, we just need to be related to someone famous, and act the part. I can pose as Madonna’s recently adopted Croatian infant, afterwards we can park Cessna’s in pine trees and bury a Ram 2500 in a snowbank.
I figure we need 15 posse members and another 15 posing as Paparazzi. No film required, click shutters a lot and act excited when I pose for the obligatory, “Darn, no underwear under my waders” shot.
Any “glampers” out there, needing to see and be seen?
