In recent years, Paris Hilton has significantly calmed down, but she's recently made news for her role in what was either a very messed up plane crash prank or an elaborate PR stunt.
Both fans and reluctant onlookers watched Paris live The Simple Life nearly eight years ago (the show aired for the last time on August 5, 2007) with then-best friend Nicole Richie. Together they managed farms, mini-marts, and home chores across the U.S., their antics driving ratings for four years.
But while Paris's simple days are dead and gone, we can glean several important life lessons from the wisdom she chose to share with us during that time.
On being at a loss for words
Most effective when near a running oven, hiking Death Valley, or sitting on the leather seats of your Ferrari after they've been infiltrated by the sun's rays for several hours. Given that Paris does not hike nor oven, however, we can all assume she developed this insight from the latter experience.
