Paris Hilton's new hair extension line hurts me in my heart

You know, when you have a job like mine you try not to be over-the-top negative about anything or anyone, because honestly, who wants to spend life being mean? However, sometimes something is so obnoxious and opportunistic and lazy and just kind of gross that you feel you must say something and that without saying this thing you physically might burst.
Well, friends, that something today is Paris Hilton's new hair extensions line, "Paris Extended." Really, it's not even the line (I wouldn't know a good hair extension from a good toadstool) so much as it is every single word written about the line (most of which includes the heiress's favorite monosyllabic term).
To wit:
"Everyone should have the chance to be me. That's why I created the world's hottest hair extensions. Choose from ten fabulous shades and you will be a clip away from hotness."
"It takes time to look hot."
Then, as if the word "hot" had not been overused enough already, the collection is broken into "10 Shades of Hot." And, next, peppered throughout the site are random "Hot" and "Hotter" but it is not clear if these are supposed to signify a rating system or that perhaps you are getting closer to being hotter.
Anyway, if you would like to turn a certain high temperature by wearing clipped-on fake hair, it'll cost you $69.99. Paris Extended

    Why do we keep giving this chic - and her vile ethics and values - press? Heavy sigh...

    I think she's beautiful, but give the head a break already ! Her hair is going to fall out and she'll have none soon ...

    Is this thing working ?? My comments aren't registering !!

    I love Paris- I think she is a magificent dresser, she has a great thin figure, and she is a beautiful girl ... She needs to give her head a rest, extensions are terrible for you ... I'm surprised her hair doesn't fall out already ! She also is a bit spoiled ... Ohk, alot spoiled.
