Why would Paris Hilton be safe in a zombie apocalypse?

Answer: They want braiiiinnnns.

And she certainly doesn't have one. London's 'Metro' newspaper has a report detailing how, through legal documents filed as part of a court case, it has come to light just how air-headed the socialite really is.

Apparently she 'gets a new cell phone, like, every two weeks' and has never seen a phone bill in her life. She was a producer for the 2006 flop 'Pledge This!' (and it is this that the whole court case is about, according to the plaintiffs she failed to promote the film effectively), but when asked about this role, she didn't even know what a producer does! 'Help get cool people in the cast', apparently.

My main issue isn't really with morons like Hilton, if they want to stay stupid and aren't interested in the world around them, fine. However, what really annoys me is that they (either actively or passively) encourage young people to follow in their footsteps! 'Oh, I don't care about science or other subjects because I'll just become a socialite instead of getting a job!'. This is mainly girls, although footballers do exactly the same to teenage boys' brains.

I'm sure that when a new medical procedure or chemical (developed by scientists; those who do care) saves their lives or those of their family, they'll be singing a different tune.
