If Paris Hilton were to send cease-and-desist letters to anyone who ever picked on her (for a number of reasons), there would be no fun in this world any more. Can you imagine it? A place where no one would be allowed to crack a couple of jokes on Paris' expense, where she would be, like, a star and a really talented artist, for the simple reason that no one could contradict her. Yes, indeed, what a bore...
Anyway, you might not remember Tinkerbell but it used to be really famous once. That was back in the day when few people really knew that Paris was a no-good celebrity, when the entire world was at her feet for the taking and when most of the things that were being said about her were positive. How the time flies by... Anyone else wonder what happened to the wide-eyed puppy?
Tinkerbell was the Chihuahua with which Paris was permanently seen. At one point, his exposure to the media was as such that you could've sworn that she didn't even go to the bathroom without him. Then, it disappeared. Or, it was abducted. Although Paris said that she eventually got him back, there still are many who believe that she never did and she just bought another dog and passed it for Tinkerbell. As if it could be replaced without people noticing! Not any dog can wear outfits that match his owner's and jewelry that cost more than I could ever make!
A very inventive and creative Manhattan ad has managed to bring Tinkerbell back or, at least, a very good look-alike. What you're now looking at is a poster for a Manhattan storage company, as it was plastered on the walls of the subway and on telephone booths. Before they covered it up, that is. The ad promotes the storage company with what has got to be the most original slogan: 'Your closet's so shallow, it makes Paris look deep'.
Unfortunately, somebody from camp Paris saw the ads all over town, alerted her publicist who, in his turn, alerted her lawyer and it was pulled from the streets. Now, that's a shame! As a curiosity, this is the same company that, not long ago, got in trouble with the Republicans for printing ads (for the same storage houses) that said 'Your closet's scarier than Bush's agenda'. If we can't give them points for being legit, we could at least appreciate the humor in their ads. And the fact that they brought sweet, precious, gorgeous Tinkerbell back! I say he should take Paris' part in 'The Simple life' - you know its acting is better than hers!
