[News] Paris Hilton in Korea; Guest on MooHanDoJun

[webe]

On November 7th Paris Hilton arrived in Korea because she recently signed a contract to represent Fila Korea. So she will probably model for them and such.

But the bigger news is that she also appeared on Korea's top Variety Show 무한도전 (MooHanDoJun). You can see her in the second picture with one of the stars of the show 노홍철 (Noh HongChul).

I do not know about you guys but I really enjoy MooHanDoJun here in Korea and that group of guys on the show are hilarious. I am looking forward to this episode because I know that these guys will make fools of themselves and do some crazy things.


Previous world stars that appeared on MooHanDoJun include
MMA Great Fedor Emlienko
Tennis Star Maria Sharapova
Soccer Star Thierry Henry
Ice Skater Kim YunAh

A couple of weeks ago Pittsburgh Steelers half Korean Wide Receiver Hines Ward was also set to appear but could not because of knee injuries. I think that would have been a great show but instead of postponing the taping they just had one of the stars, 정준하 (Jung JoonHa) dress up as Ward.

Anyways, the previous episodes when these foreign stars came out were hilarious so I expect the same this time around. Even though I am not a fan of Paris Hilton.

She's got everything (almost) every girl in this world wants: wealth, "sexiness" (apparently) and fame. Her money makes up for the fact that she's kinda rough-lookin'.

sometimes paris is beast-like and sometimes she is pretty. it's all in the angles.

[jeeves]

well here is a recent article about that form the english chosun ilbo. Paris and Beyonce were both in Korea around the same time, Paris promoting Fila Korea and Beyonce performing two shows. Now the clothes they wore might be the new hot commodity.


Superstar Visits Spur Fashion Fuss in Korea

Though the stars flew out of Korea on Sunday, the apparel that adorned Paris Hilton and Beyonce Knowles while they were in the country is just taking off. Arriving a day before the pop diva, Hilton donned Fila brand clothing and accessories at all her official events, faithfully carrying out her duties as a Fila spokesmodel.

Rumor has it that the gold and pink padded Fila vest that Hilton was wearing on her arrival and during her press interviews nearly sold out in Korea over the weekend. Dubbed the "Hilton vest," the mid-W100,000 (US$1=W913) vest is likely to be the "it" fashion item for some time.

Hilton's Samantha Thavas bag with the number seven sewn on top was designed by her sister Nicky, and Paris -- famous for not wearing the same thing twice -- carried the bag with her more than once, apparently displaying her affection for her sister.

With its vivid color and shiny material, the bag has already become a popular item in Japan. It can be purchased online or through unofficial importers and many Koreans are hustling to snap up this "affordable" bag, priced around W200,000 to W300,000.

Beyonce’s fashions are no less popular than Hilton’s. The jeans that accentuated the songstress' voluptuous thighs were House of Dereon, a brand Beyonce set up with her fashion designer mother Tina Knowles. The jeans aren't yet available in Korea but her visit prompted a deluge of queries on the Internet as to where they might be found.

The shiny handbag Beyonce carried to offset her modest outfit of jeans and a simple shirt on her first day in Korea was the Marc Jacobs' Stam bag. It's available in Korea for around W2 million to W2.5 million depending on the material. Beyonce’s Stam bag was made of snakeskin and is said to cost about W10 million. Importers say they've been getting three to four phone calls a day since the singer's visit from people asking about the bag. The costly price has the bag off official importers' lists for now.

awww. shes in asia now a days. she was just in shanghai a few days ago. at least shes making good tabloids now a days instead of the trashy kind

[anonymous meat]

Geez, she actually looks good in a hanbok. Britney on the other hand looked horrible and so did Nick Cage.

Why do I get the feeling she is gonna hit it off with Noh Hong Chul.

Oops I guess this event already happened. Hope to see it. My video store better have it.

[stringbean]

watched it yesterday
it was pretty awkward. Paris didnt really react to anything the guys did, she was basically trying to act like a princess all cute and everything. i never did like her.
It was shorter than i thought as well. Not their best episode by far
