Paris Hilton: The inevitable apology

I don’t know that Paris Hilton has any kind of career to salvage but she’s in damage control mode after she was secretly recorded in the back of a cab saying: “Gay guys are the horniest people in the world … they’re disgusting. Dude, most of them probably have AIDS.”

I think Paris is a moron but I also think the cabbie is scum for recording her.

So, I’m happy to post her apology in full:

As anyone close to me knows, I always have been and always will be a huge supporter of the gay community. I am so sorry and so upset that I caused pain to my gay friends, fans and their families with the comments heard this morning. I was having this private conversation with a friend of mine who is gay and our conversation was in no way towards the entire gay community. It is the last thing that I would ever want to do and I cannot put into words how much I wish I could take back every word.

HIV/AIDS can hurt anyone, gay and straight, men and women. It’s something I take very seriously and should not have been thrown around in conversation.

Gay people are the strongest and most inspiring people I know. It is so wrong when people bully or put down others for being gay. No one should have to go through that. Again, I am so sorry from the bottom of my heart and I feel absolutely horrible. I hope that everyone can accept my apology and know that it is not who I am or how I feel in any way.

Thank you for taking a minute to read this, I love you.

5 Remarks

  1. I don’t think she was referring to all gay men. She was referring to the men on a site and I don’t think it was meant the way it’s been taken, Greg.

  2. I think her apology is absolutely beautiful!!!

  3. Oh Please, damage control by an idiot. Is it supposed to be better that she was only referring to men that are on a sex web site ? or that are HIV+? An ugly sentiment expressed by a limited intellect. HATE is still HATE; INTOLERANCE IS STILL INTOLERANCE; and ignorance is NOT AN EXCUSE! I only hope her Gay friends, fans, and their families school her in appropriate behavior.

  4. Michael-I could not disagree with you more. Paris apologized only because she got caught. It’s a shame so many people are so uneducated about HIV and AIDS. Does she think because she’s a straight woman she can’t be infected? And what exactly is her problem with gay men having sex?

    I’ve never paid much attention to her but I have to say it is very hypocritical to court us as a community while bashing us for our ‘disgusting’ sex.

  5. People can get aids on match dot com christian singles or grindr. The bigoted witch only limited HIV to one single group which is of course the gays. and she wasn’t referring to the gays on grindr or else she would have said the gays on grindr which is still a horrible thing to say.

    By the way this is the 3rd time paris has publicly instulted the LGBT cummunity. She referred to gays as disgusting while filming her reality show with nicole ritchie. Nicole said she likes seeing 2 men kiss and Paris said “ewwwwwwww, thats disgusting”
