“The Simple Life”, a reality show that featured Paris and Nicole Richie, was crazy popular and stayed on the air for 5 seasons. It launched both Paris and Nicole into international fame, and the two became tabloid fodder, and still are to this day./gallery/paris-hilton-and-nicole-richie-2004/
Paris dated Nick Carter for 7 rocky months in 2004, and the break-up was highly publicized, with rumors of cheating and worse, abuse on Nick’s part. Nick wrote a book in 2013 and blamed Paris for his past substance abuse problems, “Paris was the worst person in the world for me to hook up with. [She] fed my worst impulses as far as partying.” Get over it, Nick, that is so 10 years ago!/gallery/paris-hilton-and-nick-carter-2004/
By 2005, Paris was complete tabloid fodder, and was the perfect example of “famous for nothing.” Paris was like a train wreck for several years…you know you shouldn’t be interested, but you couldn’t look away. I think part of what made her interesting was you NEVER knew what she would do next, and she was never shy to do it in front of the paps!/gallery/paris-faces-paparazzi-2005/

Paris was engaged for 5 months in 2005 to Greek shipping heir, Paris Latsis. Latsis was apparently so in love with her that he got her a ring that had a carat for every year of her life at the time, making it 24 carats and worth $4.7 million!/gallery/paris-hilton-and-paris-latsis-2005/
In 2005, Paris Hilton appeared in “House of Wax”, a movie about a group of unwitting teens are stranded near a strange wax museum and soon must fight to survive and keep from becoming the next exhibit. Paris ended up winning a MTV Movie Award for best scream./gallery/paris-hilton-house-of-wax-2005/
I really have no reason for including this picture, but the RAZR cell phone made me feel nostalgic! /gallery/paris-hilton-razr-2005/
Paris sure did like her Greek shipping heirs! After ending her relationship with Paris Latsis, she dated another Greek shipping heir, Stavros Niarchos, who just so happened to dump Mary-Kate Olsen for Paris (ouch.) Paris and Nachos were not good for each other, and had lots of drama and public arguments./gallery/paris-hilton-stavros-niarchos-2005/
Hey look, it’s Kim Kardashian! Paris introduced Kim K to the world in 2006, which she probably regrets now, since Kim has definitely overshadowed her these days. The two have been on again/off again friends ever since./gallery/paris-hilton-kim-kardashian-2006/
