EASTWOOD BLASTS PARIS HILTON

Clint Eastwood has blasted Paris Hilton for being ''famous for no reason.''



The legendary actor – whose film career spans over four decades - says, unlike today, only true talents were granted celebrity status when he first started out.

He said: "When I was young, movie stars who were celebrities were just a handful. Now everybody is a star so you have to make superstars. Stars are just heiresses, like Paris Hilton."

The Oscar winner – who examines hero worship and celebrity in his new film "Flags of Our Fathers," a World War II epic – insists only the most extraordinary people were considered heroes in his youth.

Clint, 79, said: "Today everyone is considered a hero. In the 40s heroes were people who committed extraordinary feats. Things are very different now."

The screen icon named former US President Dwight Eisenhower and late actor Gary Cooper as his biggest heroes.

[buttmunch]

But how can he admire Ike, one of the worst presidents ever?

[Raspberry gashes]

He's my new hero.
I can see their point though, they worked hard for 'celebrity'.

Ike did do some good things..it was Ike who helped make the civil rights movement in the 50's and 60's possible by using his executive ability to enforce the legislative/Judicial branch laws/rulings by superceding state's rights(and choices) by using Federal force. It was Ike who ordered Federal troops to force Arkansas to step down and allow the integration of Central High School in Little Rock in 1957-something that had not happened in the South since the Civil War.

Also we owe our interstate highway system to Ike-he was the driving force behind it.

*he wasn't ALL bad now..hehehe*

Clint Eastwood and Paris Hilton shouldn't even be in the same sentence together, let alone him commenting on her. Though I agree with him, I hate that he felt he had to say those things......

[Grimmlok]

Why is it everytime someone says something even slightly dismissive of someone else, it's automatically and dramatically portrayed as "So and so gets blasted by this other guy!"

Clint, that wasn't a fucking blast.. that was a simple statement. A blast would be Clint screaming his head off and swearing at Paris Hilton for being a vacuous dumbshit slutfuck.

I'm tired of everything geting "blasted" when NONE of these so-called 'blasts' have been anything other than a snarky whimper at best.

I agree with Clint that people had to earn the title of celebrity but...............

Just think jow boring these gossip sites would be with so few celebrities to discuss!

[Bellatheball]

Man, I was hoping for something more scathing than that. Damn.

[bite me spidey]

Oh Clint. I knew I liked him.
