Paris Hilton Grows Up, Goes Green

Paris Hilton has been flaunting her new grown-up image during a promotional trip to Berlin, Germany. “I changed all the light bulbs to energy-safe light bulbs and I’m buying a hybrid car right now,” the 26-year-old celebrity heiress said on Wednesday (December 12), probably meaning to say energy efficient. “Little things that people can do every day to make a huge difference.” Why the sudden activism? “I think being a celebrity, we have a chance to actually raise awareness and shine light on things that are going on in the world. That people aren’t paying attention to.” Hilton was in Berlin to take part in an advertising campaign for Rich Prosecco. A report from ITN has since been removed from YouTube.
