Paris Hilton Thinks Black Guys are “Gross”
Journalist Neal Strauss is set to release a biography that details the many celebrity encounters he’s had throughout his interviewing career; one big name who will be less than thrilled with the book is celebutard Paris Hilton. Strauss recalls his first meeting with the heiress in 1999, during which the 18-year-old Hilton did some ecstasy, made out with David “Bud Bundy” Faustino and dropped a little racial bomb. The author claims that Hilton was horrified to find out that “the guy from Saving Private Ryan” who she’d made out with was actually Black (that mysterious light-skinned gent would be Vin Diesel, btw) and states that she “can’t stand Black guys. I would never touch one. It’s gross.”
Hilton’s use of racist language isn’t at all new; in 2007, she was caught on camera saying that she and her sister Nicki were dancing like “two niggers”. And while Strauss’ book is a retrospective of his career and, thus, features a lot of anecdotes from folks who’s stars burned out long ago…it’s worth mentioning that 2011 Paris Hilton is about as relevant as an AOL free trial disc (and just as useless).
However, her comments do give one pause. While Hilton’s phrasing was offensive and racist, I’m not quick to judge her personal preference. For all the people taking offense to her words (again, I’m not pardoning her way of expressing her disinterest at ALL), how many Black folks out there have little to no attraction to members of other races? *Raises hand*
You’d never catch me out there saying that White boys are “gross”; that’s unnecessary and untrue. However, I wouldn’t mess with one because I don’t find them attractive. Hilton, however, was attracted to Vin Diesel prior to seeing that he was Black. But I can imagine that if a Creole-looking White gent had booked me, only for me to find out that he wasn’t a brother…I would have ended things as well. However, I would’ve known his race (and name-jeez, she’s a scumbag) prior to making out with him. I don’t see anything wrong with only wanting to date your own race; it’s not necessarily an expression of some sort of hatred and may just be a matter of cultural preference.
As far as Hilton goes, offended Black guys can take comfort in knowing that she will return to yesterday’s news within a week. And I’d imagine that most brothers wouldn’t be too concerned at being considered ‘gross’ by someone as, well, gross as a convicted felon with a “leaked” sex tape and the IQ of a dormat.

NAACP are just desperate to stay current and relevant. they caved under pressure. Gay Black rejoice, one place left, the church.
I also agreed with the comment you made. There are a lot of people who think like Paris Hilton about dating or being in a relationship with someone from another ethnicity. However, for every one of her who thinks that way, there are many who don’t. Paris is a dumb “b” famous for being famous. Who cares what she thinks?
Tomi, please look up the word “rasicts” before you label the author as one. It irks me to no end how much that word is thrown around this days without it being used in it’s correct context. Jamilah might be prejudice or she’s being stereotypical, but she certainly is not being a racist.
Please don’t be offended by my statement, I would just like to see the word “rascism” used correctly.
When I was in University, I dated white men, but deep down I knew that I wanted to marry me a fine black man. The Cosby show had a huge influence on me growing up and I wanted that family life, so only a black man would do. I’m not saying there aren’t attractive men of other races, but for me in the end I wanted a black family and I could only create that with a black man.
I know many white and asian people who feels the same about there race. If you actually look around most people don’t get with someone outside of there race, all my white friends are with white men and most of my asian friends are with asian men. The ones that are with someone outside of their race are with black men; that’s not jealousy, that’s a fact, because I really do have the finest black man out of them all :)
As for Paris, who cares, none of the black men I know wouldn’t want her either and that’s a fact. Curves and intelliegnce count for something in their world…
“Racism is the belief that the genetic factors which constitute race, ethnicity, or nationality are a primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that ethnic differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.”
You are not reading my statements correctly. Hopefully this clears it up. However, I do agree it’s more bigotry than racism. I apologize for the misuse of the word.
I’m not saying the refusal to date out of your race is RACIST. It can be prejudice. Or a preference, hell I don’t care which. But, finding someone attractive, like-able, doable, and then when you finally find out their race you’re like eww? That’s definitely a different scenario. That’s intolerance. You are using their race as a basis for why they are no longer attractive even though you were initially attracted.
Oh this is rich! Some nasty,skanky,UGLY,low rent,hooker wannabe,sleazy HOEBAG whose vajayjay must look like a petri dish by now has the utter gall to say someone ELSE is gross?! Bitch please e-v-e-r-y thing about you is gross from your ratty weave to your big ass nose to your porn star heels to your flat ass if she wasn’t rich she WOULD be some slut in the trailer park. Hey why is Paris like a door knob EVERYONE gets a turn!
I agree that whole ALL black men love white women stuff is stupid and archaic and the irnoy is both Paris and Mayer are so worthless and ugly not many people of ANY race would want them especially the bimbo with the many diseases. I swear he woo-hoo must look like an amoeba on a petri dish by now.
BLACK MEN SMELL LIKE SH*T.
‘Let he who wakes up the next day after a drug induced make out session with Vin Diesel and doesn’t totally regret it cast the first stone.’
I’m not sure how you rationalise it, but while your cultural preference may not be racism, it is prejudice. So long as you selectively decide who you do, and do not deal with based their ethnicity, that’s having a prejudice against that ethnicity.
I could have looked the other way on your comment, but then you said that like Paris, if you made out with a guy you thought was black, but then found out was white, you would not continue to have relations with that guy…not because he has a bad personality, or is a tool, or had really bad breath, but because he is white…..
Something is wrong with that. Nothing is wrong with not being attracted to someone of x race (where you simply cannot control how you feel…it happens), but to be attracted to them and recant it because you suddenly realise that they ARE x race? Yea, that’s all sorts of messed up.
A birdie once told me that one of the reasons why black people are still tolerated is because the black anatomy not necessarily the black man itself. That birdie said send him off so that black people can be tolerated so their be less statements of course and instead a attempting at pretending to accept and tolerate. Sometimes putting types like that together two ignorants together comes with benefits especially if you could care less to deal with their ignorance.
Save the world the trouble.
Anyway.
A paris is not the representative of everyone!
This books seems very controversial. Is this is a good idea to release a book like this. I know back in the day it seemed every white girl in the world and their mama wanted to be Paris Hilton! This may seem crazy or some may have forgotten quite quickly but everyone mimicked everything she said and worhsipped the ground she walked on. The media was greatly impacted by her and she became an international culture in of itself.
Has the author this book heard of letting sleeping dogs lie! As a black man he should know better than anyone something like this may not be worth dredging up.
I think people sometimes make a big deal out of white and black stuff. Especially it seems to hit a nerve the white woman and black man thing! I could care less about such relations for good or bad really. Or interracial relations as a whole. Of all the interracial relationships there are it seems that white women and black men relationship causes the most controversy or debate.
The only think that urkes me about such relationships is when white people even the ones that profess to love blacks turn on you because of white women and blakc men relations. Like when the oj or other high profile similar situations I rather not mention but had to do with athletes.Heck dont take it out on me! I am not a black man or a white woman so dont get me that burden!
The myth that black people or women get upset about it some use to claim and I do want to say some. I do not believe in that. I think some have issue with when such pairing and I do mean some of them act petty or the that they like for black men to treat black women and themselves better and women as a whole. Now that is generally the problem. But, I think some within that pairing and I do mean some not all like use to like to make the excuse in order to make them feel like they are doing something to or to make them feel better about themselves and make them seek that attention from drama that isnt because they are petty and they dont have enough to keep them happy in their relationships so that have to use to that make themselves feel better or because they are petty. In those cases, I can only hope to pimp people off like that to each other. And, whatever takes to make them believe that to keep them together! Because people like that only bring about bad karma on themselves and more hate from others. Usually hate from people that they dont worry about messing with unlike hte ones they want to say are upset.
I think the reason why i hear white women and all races of women make statements like this is because of the idea of how they percieve black men treat women and to think that now this is truly would be a racial comment and people who want to take someone who is racist like ashley judd and bite her head off! Usually the only time I hear stuff like this from a woman of another race that I have personally know is someone who had a sister or was dating a black man and he had pissed him the beep off.
I have had a “couple” of girlfriends stuff like this cause they know I wasnt going to tell. I had one who started dating another race of guy after a black guy and she ran a muck talking about black people even how to say the word black in her new boyfriends language hten I thought ok you are starting to make this a hobby. Or have had some people who dont like such white woman black man relation types say things about the man, the woman or their children that they are just gross in general.
Not all people feel or act like paris. I have no problem with her. I dont know her personally.SHe does not represent everyone anyway or a whole race.
I think if someone of another race calls a black man gross or use the n word it may have largely to do with how black people and black men in particular project themselves and how people project them.
I remember once I saw a white woman and her black boyfriend I am assuming I didnt see any rings on finger as they exited. But he was talking on the phone and she said something about You LIE and he went awol on her. ANd, I thought oh lord never loud talk a black man and call him out in public. He snatched their baby daughter, her purse, the child story and almost collected the woman all in one swope! I tried to pretend like I wasnt look as it became completely silent he told her to get up and come with him! She got up and I was the only non white person around and she looked dead at me! WHy I dont know! I never figured that out! They left and went out of sight. And, I thought girlfriend dont get up! There baby where the heck out of her benny was giggling and I am like if you only knew.
The reason I mention this scenario is this is one of many scenarios I have seen and I think people like to judge people off of scenarios. People like to base things off of such and I think she may have had or seen alot of experience or she jsut simply feels that way and have had no experiences at all which I think may be the case if such statements made by her are true. Where she grew up I dont think many black men were privy to be in that social circle.
I dont think it is fair to make a book on this or mention this because I dont think it is worth making a book out of.
