Music, Culture, Style. The Beat of Toronto.

As if horrible films, ridiculous reality shows, and ugly accessories weren’t enough, this senseless, miserable human being has decided to take up music critiquing as her next great challenge!  I’ve been poking around over the last few days reading about the events that transpired at the Winter Music Conference and I can’t help but laugh AND draw parallels to my own experiences.

So what the hell does this have to do with Paris?  WMC is an internationally renowned electronic music conference with representation from all the biggest names in dj’ing, producing, content publishing, etc in the business.  Naturally, an event like this draws out many people as hopelessly fabulous as Paris Hilton.  At a party a couple nights ago Steve Angello was dj’ing, and reports indicate that Paris wasn’t enjoying the show.  She had a conversation with the manager requesting that the music be changed, and he (foolishly) lead her up to the booth.

Now I, and most DJs, are no stranger to having drunk, irritable, vapid blonde girls in our faces about the music we’re playing.  What I learned early is that these vapid blonde girls have the capacity for holding grudges (read Paris’ blog post), and that bad publicity of this kind just isn’t worth your “principles”.  Steve Angello is no doubt one of the top dj/producers in electronic music, so I understand why he’d be annoyed with having a silly girl in his face ordering him to play hip-hop when he is an artist who has carefully planned out a show.  But the one thing I learned from an experience exactly like this is that you HAVE to be the sober one up there (and I don’t mean this literally, necessarily).

All of that said, Paris is a fucking idiot.  Her response is SO childish (not least because of the awful grammar and plentiful spelling mistakes) that I’m surprised anybody could possibly take her seriously.  I mean come on.. “The DJ (I don’t even know his name cause he sucks so bad) was playing the worst music ever!”???  What are you, thirteen?  I guess that’s the nature of being hopelessly fabulous though, is that even if you’re an idiot blonde with nothing interesting or relevant in your head, people will still listen to you when you say you don’t like the DJ.

    Well at least she didn’t mention his name, anyone dumb enough to listen to her probably doesn’t have any idea what good music is anyway

    Paris Hilton has a weakness, if no one talks about her then she will literally die (suicide or starvation are two most likely outcomes).

    Props to the DJ for standing his ground. We deal with drunken idiots trying to request music like it’s a jukebox, female or male. It’s a part of the business. The club owner is at fault for bending at the powers of a celebrity.
    “I think he was jealous cause Bob Sinclair is a far better DJ then this guy by about a million times. He was so unbelievably rude and all because I asked to play one good song.”
    Paris… stick to hand bags and Sony Nightshot skin flicks. Stay away from my music and my fellow DJ’s. Bob Sinclair sucks btw. Unless you like cheeseball dance/trance/disco.

    The song you posted sounds just like something out of a David Guetta set with a cymbal. Bring back great memories. Like the mix.

    After reading this article I have bookmarked this blog, which is uncommon for me. Keep up the great work.

    Paris Hilton has a history of pissing off Dee Jays. Just ask Barbie. The most disturbing thing for me is all the fools out there who suck up to her and treat her like royalty. It makes me cringe.
