Hilton is actually quite smart, smarter than her public persona (which is all part of how she presents herself; she knows full well how she comes off, and she uses it to her advantage).
I remember when the media went after her because of her arrest, and she pointed out to them that we were still in a war in Iraq and aren't there more important things for them to be reporting on?
Oh yeah she's parleyed her celebrity image into more money than she was getting just by being an heiress, so there are definitely lots of smarts in there. I've heard others pointing out that this must have all been scripted for her, and it probably was, but she still had the presence of mind to choose to do this or not...
Which just reminds me of the line from "Animal House": "You can't abuse our pledge's. Only we can abuse our pledge's"
