Paris Hilton arrives at the amfAR Rocks benefit for AIDS research in New York City on Monday. (The Associated Press)First stop on Paris Hilton's postjail goodwill tour — Rwanda.
The hotel heiress said she will visit the African country this fall as part of her commitment to use her celebrity to highlight global causes, E! Online reported Tuesday.
"There's so much need in that area, and I feel like if I go, it will bring more attention to what people can do to help," Hilton said.
Scott Lazerson of Playing for Good, an organization that helps high-end business and entertainment personalities become involved in charities, originally invited Hilton to Rwanda — scene of a 1994 genocide in which thousands of Tutsis were slaughtered.
Hilton said her journey to Rwanda will not be her last visit to other countries.

            And you bring more attention to it and her by complaining about it on a message board....This is your notice that there is a problem with your signature. Please remove it.

 She's only trying to benefit herself. If she cared so much about the people of Rwanda, she'd have some of her parents hotels be built there and let the people stay for free! You think she's going to donate a dime of her $$ to them. Hell no.0

 Yeh, I agree. I don't like the girl but people complain about what she uses her fame for and why she doesn't use it for good things. Maybe this WILL be an eyeopener for her... if it's not, I don't particularly care, if it is good for her!Allie wrote:what's wrong with trying to do something positive and beneficial?

 i love this... she's a mindless whore for being a rich pampered do-nothing princess, she tries to change that and do something and people shit on her for that too.
 i will never understand the hatred people have of her. she has handled the spotlight with more class than 99% of the people on here would.0

 how do you know what she's going to do? Lots of celebrities do things of this nature, like when Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie went to Africa and it was on Dateline or one of those shows. It does promote a lot of awareness about problems-poverty, hunger, AIDS.
 I'm no fan of Paris Hilton but I don't think there's anything bad about trying to do something like that.
 Cameras follow her everywhere, they might as well spotlight what is going on in impoverished nations."...like a word misplaced, nothing said, what a waste.."

 It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this girl out. She's going to go there, tell everyone how awful it is, and how heartfelt she feels towards the people. I can't wait to hear her suggestions as how to make change there. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie at least have been doing this for a while and have some credibility. Not this idiot.0

 she's 22 or something. brad and angelina had to start somewhere. this is her start. you think they magically hopped over there knowing everything? no. people gave them the same shit then they're giving her now.0

 yeah, Angelina the homewrecker and Brad the whipped boy toy/ baby daddy have more credibility. Ok 
 You're making assumptions. You have no idea what she's going to do or say. And like I said, when you make your trip to Africa or start donating money or doing anything else positive in the world, please, come back and let me know, I'd like to know what you're doing to make a difference."...like a word misplaced, nothing said, what a waste.."

 I'd be the first to bitch about the girl and the likes of her being a bad example to kids... but that means she IS an example. So for her to highlight good issues for whatever reasons can't possibly be a bad thing The Astoria??? Orgazmic! The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
 Verona??? it's all surmountable

 i said she handles the media with class. she doesn't fuck with reporters or whine or throw pampered fits. she smiles, waves, and goes about her life. she knows there's a circus around her and seems to have simply accepted it, rather than creating it or fighting it. even the psycho papparazi people have said she is the nicest and politest person they've stalked. she doesn't have to be. she's a kid trying to grow up with the world watching and scrutinizing her every move. she made mistakes. we all did. if you were videotaped non-stop from 18-23, would you have been a good example to kids? everything she has done has been done by every college kid in this country every weekend. why does she take shit for it and they get a pass?0

            Bashing celebs is the "cool" thing to do.
 I'm all for making fun of them and their comical antics but
 to deride someone for using that fame for something good
 is non-sensical and petty.
 as long as she doesn't get behind the wheel there she will be ok.I've never met Ed,never shook his hand, talked to him or had my picture taken with him.

 I love how people just shine her on and buy into anything she does. This girl can take a shit and people will think it's gold. I'll never understand it.0
