Paris Hilton to Quit the Limelight

By: Shannon Gossage

Paris Hilton has announced that she wants to settle down in two years and start a family with her fiancé Paris Latsis. This comes on the heels of recent rumors that Paris Squared is already preggers. A rumor that Hilton’s reps instantly squashed saying that Hilton is "still fabulous" and definitely not pregnant. Hilton claims she "doesn’t enjoy going out anymore" and wants to be out of the public eye. Hilton says of the party circuit, "I can’t believe I used to love doing this. It’s such a pain. It’s everyone saying, ‘Let’s do a deal! Can I have a picture?’ I’m just like, ‘These people are such losers.’" Losers, huh?! All this from a girl that recently boasted that she can earn up to $200,000 for a 20-minute appearance at a party (and more if it's in Japan). Bet she likes it when those "losers" hand over the money.

Now that she is engaged, it seems as if she wants the world to take her more seriously. She reportedly said in an interview that her dumb blonde persona was just an act. Said Hilton, "I thought it was cute to play a dumb blonde [on the Simple Life]. On TV, I do it because it’s funny. I consider myself a business woman and a brand."

I wouldn’t put it past this self-absorbed media hog to turn herself into so much more than just the rich girl who appeared in a homemade sex video or two. She is well on her way with a book deal, a record deal, a fashion line, a fragrance line, a movie career and so on. Not to be negative, but let’s see how long this engagement lasts before we start waiting for the next reality show Paris Hilton: Soccer Mom.
