Shopping Magazine Model to Be Copied...Over and Over and Over

Because there are no new ideas and the money runs frantically in the direction of the latest fad, shopping magazines seem to be launching with the same frequency as a horny highschooler's self gratification activity. As soon as Ad Age named Conde Naste's "Lucky" magazine of the year, publishers have gushed forth variations on the original theme. Fairchild has "Vitals" targeted to men, Conde Naste has added "Cargo" also targeted to men and now Hearst is launching Shop Etc. for the older shopping demo. We anxiously await Dennis Publishing's "Body Floss," developed for women in search of the perfect bikini.

PARIS HILTON BLUES

(words and music, copyright 2003/Gene Hamilton)
Produced by Big Wassabi, courtesy of LBI Productions

Little girl is living the American dream
Just sipping and tipping through the party scene
Well the world is your oyster and your oyster's hot
You got movie star looks and you're model lean

So girl don't be embarrassed
You're a billionairess
I wish I was in Paris too

If things they get too tricky
You better call your sister Nicky

Like a swan on a pond, you don't need no thong
Just wait till the paparazzi's gone
You're just a girl on a mission, something needs itching
You've got a condition called money and position

So girl don't be embarrassed
You're a billionairess
I wish I was in Paris too

Say your mama and your daddy might not believe
There ain't no such thing as bad publicity
I said your mama and your daddy might not believe
Just give a call to Tommy Lee

Girl don't be embarrassed
You're a billionairess
I wish I was in Paris too

If things they get too tricky
You better call your sister Nicky

So little girl
Don't you be embarrassed
All I can say is
I wish I was in Paris

See you in the media
Book tickets on Expedia
The Simple Life you're building
Makes me want to sleep inside a Hilton

Hope this makes you laugh
Cause you're a superstar at last
