And from the Making of... Stars Are blind, she was so sweet to everyone and even to the papparazzi. She was smiling the whole time.

Of course she is nice with the paparazzi. They are the reason she is famous in the first place. Plus, she isn't that stupid to be mean when there's cameras around (and even if she was, they would cut the part before releasing the making-of).

We're talking about US, not Japan. Drink-driving arrest don't affect sales. And 100k is a huge flop. Even if she sells 500k, the album will still be a flop.

Her album flopped in Japan, too. That surprised me.

Yes, because Jesse McCartney is such a respected artist. At least Paris had some top-notch producers.

You're wrong.

So you're saying that Kelis' Tasty flopped, Nelly Furtado's Folklore flopped, Britney's Greatest Hits flopped, etc etc? Unfortunately, not every album sells one million, not even the weekly #1's are guaranteed one million. 500,000 is already considered great. And Paris is a debut artist, so 100,000 is excellent.

Paris is selling pretty steady given her status and public perception.

Just cause it's Paris.. :/
Truth.

I don't get the why people keep on rambling about the imperfections in her voice. She's not making mistakes like American Idol contestants. Plus her voice isn't high pitched or screechy like Ayu during her debut. It's just there, nothing to it. The instrumentals wouldn't sound better.

We can't compare Paris Hilton with Kelis, for example, because Paris Hilton album had a much bigger promotion and hype than "Tasty". Britney Spears album was a Greatest Hits. And Nelly Furtado's Folklore was a huge flop in the US and Nelly Furtado wasn't dropped by her label thanks to the good sales in Europe.

Disagreed, Tasty had the mega-hit single "Milkshake". Paris only had a moderately successful "Stars Are Blind".

You guys sound jealous of her album and the chance she got to start a music career. Not pointing at anyone in particular.

Kelis' highly anticipated follow up to Tasty dropped to #58 from #10 in it's second week. I wonder how B'Day is doing..

New single already out, "Nothing In This World". For some reason, it started getting airplay here in Malaysia. o__o That's very quick for a new song.

I think Paris might go Gold status.

So I was at B&N with a friend (Who sings) today, and for some reason she really wanted to buy this album; I just had to stop her.

Friend: Oooh. Paris! I really want that!
Me: Don't buy it, it's horrible.
Friend: But I really want it!
Me: Have you heard the songs?
Friend: No.
Me: She can't sing, *Imitates singing style*
Friend: *Blinks and finds a Michael Buble album instead*
