Paparazzi Snubs Perez At VH1 Awards Show; Says Hilton: 'I Render Publicists Useless'

Well, here’s a shocker: Perez Hilton, both the friend and foe of celebutantes and Us Weekly editors everywhere, was asked to appear at VH1’s Big In ’06 Awards show. The paparazzi, many of whom are pissed at Perez for the unauthorized posting of photos, refused to snap his photo on the red carpet. (Imagine that: a blogger snubbed by paparazzi at an awards show. Crazy.)

Meanwhile, Hilton has a refreshing-if-cocky take on the PR establishment, and said so to PRWeek:

PRWeek: What kind of treatment do you get from the entertainment establishment?

Hilton: It depends.
