BALLZ! Express Yourself With BALLZ!

Fergie was shopping in Beverly Hills hoping paparazzi would catch a glimpse of the rock on her finger. She was showing off the engagement ring Josh Duhamel bought her as evidence that they really are engaged. Okay, we believe you! Now put that ring away before we all go blind.

Hotel heiress Paris Hilton’s potential inheritance dramatically diminished after her grandfather, Barron Hilton, announced plans on Wednesday to donate 97 percent of his estimated $2.3 billion fortune to charity.

You could say Paris Hilton has had the heir taken out of her balloon, so to speak. You could also say she put the “ho” in hotel heiress, so to speak. Eh?

The fortune in question includes $1.2 billion Barron Hilton stands to earn from both the recent sale of Hilton Hotels Corp., and the pending sale of the world’s biggest casino company, Harrah’s Entertainment Inc.

The donated money will be placed in a trust that will eventually benefit the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, raising its total value to about $4.5 billion.

Barron Hilton, chairman of the foundation, intends “to contribute 97 percent of his entire net worth, estimated at $2.3 billion, including the created trusts, at whatever value it is at the time of his passing,” the foundation said.

What on Earth will Paris and Nicky Hilton do? Continue to get paid $500,000 to show up at parties (Paris) or start their own businesses (Nicky)? Likely.

Perhaps Stavros Niarchos - Paris’ on-again, off-again lover and heir to a Greek shipping fortune himself - will be back in her good graces after this news.

Paris, a symbol of celebrity privilege in America, first gained fame in 2003 when a sex tape featuring herself and then-boyfriend Rick Salomon was posted online.

She parlayed her notoriety, fueled by tabloid headlines about her partying lifestyle, into a celebrity career that has included a reality TV show, a book, an album, and film roles. This year she spent three weeks in jail for violating probation.

It’s what ever mother dreams of from the moment the sonogram technician points to that blurry little vajayjay on the monitor: the chance to host a mother-daughter reality show.  I mean, come on– who among us hasn’t imagined transforming our own homespun drama and tears into 30 minutes of entertainment for the masses?  

Well, until you figure out a way to turn you and your 3 year-old’s heart-wrenching struggle with getting her buckled into a car seat while she’s wearing her Belle dress and her winter coat into something we all want to watch, the networks will be duking it out over who gets to air “Coming Out With Cher and Chas.” 

The premise for the show is that these two experts on healthy and loving responses to a child’s pronouncement of sexual identity (Cher infamously threw things at Chastity when she told her she was a lesbian, then insisted she get psychological help to “cure” her of the problem) will, before a live studio audience, act as “Celebrity Counselors”  for people who want to come out to their families.

So then this is my question:  just how many gay boys who have been out since the 7th grade are going to testify to a life in the closet just for the chance to bury a weepy face in Cher’s silky black tresses?  I hate to admit it, but I’m going to be tuning in to find out.
