You Can Party with Paris Hilton on New Year’s Eve — Online! — For a Fee

LOCK up your boyfriends - Paris Hilton is about to add more fireworks to Sydney’s New Year’s Eve celebrations when she hits town later this year.

The celebrity ‘it’ girl and the beau she souvenired from Aussie starlet Sophie Monk have confirmed they will be the star guests at the launch of a new online social networking system, Bongo Virus.

Hilton’s rocker boyfriend Benji Madden will also DJ at the VIP party which will be streamed live around the world.

The pay-per-view party will be an invite-only affair for those on the ground in the Harbour city, but for $US5 the desperate and dateless can log on to celebrate with The Simple Life star.

In a press release from the event’s organisers, Hilton is quoted as saying, “I love the idea … Sydney is going to go off this New Year’s Eve … I can’t wait to be partying with the Aussies and Benji deejaying by my side.”

Ummmm … I totally don’t get this. Who wants to “party” over the Internet? Heh, I remember someone once sending me a link to a website that was just a dude sitting on a couch drinking a beer, and occasionally he would mumble something, and it was like “See? Now you’re not drinking alone!” And it was really really funny … because it was free. But who the hell is sitting at home alone on New Year’s Eve and then paying for the privilege of “virtually” attending Paris Hilton’s party? I think we need to track down these people and remove them from the gene pool.
