The credibility of EDM was brought into question yesterday after the shock announcement that Paris Hilton was to become a resident at Ibiza superclub Amnesia. Wunderground caught up with the would be DJ to hear her side of the story.
WG: Hi Paris, thank you very much for taking time out of your schedule to speak with us today!
Paris: That’s OK Wunderground, I’ve always got time for the little people, you guys buy all my shit, so I’m really happy to be here!
WG: First off we would like to congratulate you on the announcement of your residency at Amnesia, why don’t you tell us a little bit about the night!
Paris: Thank you! I’m so excited about it. So, it’s going to be called Foam and Diamonds and it’s going to be on every Wednesday from July 31st till August 31st. It’s going to be brilliant, there’ll be foam everywhere, I just love getting covered head to toe in foam where ever I am but especially when I’m in a club. I’ll be using diamond encrusted equipment too, which will really make the music sound classy. There’ll also be shops where people can buy anything from my brands, whether it’s perfume or make up or handbags you want you’ll be able to get it all and because it’s Ibiza I can pretty much charge whatever I want for it. Yay! It’s so totally awesome!
WG: What do you think of people saying that you have absolutely no talent as a DJ and that there are other people in the industry who have worked hard for years who actually deserve this kind of opportunity!
Paris: You know what I say to these people? BOOOO!! They’re just haters, I mean DJing is easy right, you just get someone to make a CD for you with some songs on it, all you got to do is turn the volume up and down and look good. I think people saying that are just jealous of me because I’m so much prettier and richer than they are!
WG: You do know that it’s the person who makes the CD for you that’s DJing not you, right?
Paris: Don’t be silly, just ask Steve Aoki or David Guetta, those guys are the best DJs in the world and they do the exact same as me. I mean David Guetta taught me, so I think I know what I’m doing!
WG: Seriously though, you don’t really have any talent as a DJ, we seen your performance last year in Brazil and it was terrible, you even had someone hiding behind the DJ box who was controlling the mixer, have you been practicing?
Paris: Yeah, I’ve been practicing really hard, I will be so much better than I was in Brazil, that was my first time ever, I’m really good now I even pick some of my own tunes. I really don’t like how this interview is going, it’s not about whether I have talent or not it’s about me being on stage, in front of all those people, looking fine and milking all the money that I can, out of something I really don’t know anything about! Next Question!!
WG: Erm OK , sorry about that, lets move on shall we? Do you think it will be easier for you to make a break through as a reputable DJ now that there are more female DJs on the scene, with people like Maya Jane Coles and Laura Jones becoming household names?
Paris: Who? Why would I want to talk about other women? I really don’t know anything about these people or being a reputable DJ, but I’ll tell you what I do know about, it’s Paris Hilton. It’s a brand that screams quality, it’s fashion, it’s music, it’s home made videos, it’s what people want and I’m not afraid to give it them!
WG: Oh really Paris, just like you gave it to Rick Salomon?
Paris: Fuck you Wunderground, I mean who the fuck are Wunderground anyway? I’m Paris Hilton, I don’t have to take this sort of shit off anyone, where the fuck is my agent? Someone’s getting sacked for this shit, where the fuck is my driver. Goddamnit!! I want to leave, this interview is over!
WG: That’s great Paris, we got everything we needed, thank you!!
