Perez Hilton Wants To Prevent You From Committing 'Red Carpet Suicide'

perez0915.jpg

The Queen of Gossip Perez Hilton was here to gossip and to talk about his forthcoming book, Red Carpet Suicide: A Survival Guide on Keeping Up With the Hiltons. The book is due out in January 2009.

Hilton has been called the "most hated person in Hollywood" because of his blog which criticizes and makes fun of celebrities.

"It's really refreshing not to care what anyone thinks because it gives me the liberty to write whatever I want, whether you like me or you don't. You know, Perez isn't my real name, so it doesn't bother me. It's a character," said Hilton, whose real name is Mario Lavandeira.

A native of Florida, Lavandeira has ties to the Big Apple too. He graduated from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts in 2000.

For more information, visit Hilton's blog perezhilton.com.

Love how on a relatively conservative morning news show, Perez just says..."I did it to get laid." Love it, that was funny....

I love Perez! He is a great Latino always making sure to represent proudly his ethnicity! I wish him success in all his business and personal ventures :) Love Stephanie

perez may be proud to be latino but are latino people proud of him and how he represents himself and latinos??? oh yeah...thats the real question.

Perez Hilton is a jerk! When is his 15 minutes going to be over anyway? He is rude, crude, and lewd. AND he is a big liar who slanders people with no inside info whatsoever, then pretends that it is legitimate gossip.
