The World is Shocked: Paris Hilton Pulls a Milli Vanilli

Fri, 2006-09-15 10:55.

Since Paris released that catchy little "Stars are Blind" song and actually made it to the Top 40, I've been waiting for the announcement that she's going on tour. A Paris Hilton concert tour-- can you imagine? It would sell out every seat with just the paparazzi and the bloggers alone. But there's not even a little bit of buzz about her performing live. She hasn't even done the Good Morning America thing like Justin, Beyonce and Christina. I began to wonder why...

Then, this morning, my suspicion was confirmed by local morning radio hosts Michael Maze and Chaz Kelly of KC101: Paris Hilton isn't actually singing the songs on her new album.

That's right. It's not her voice. Apparently the main vocals are the work of Carah Faye Charnow, lead singer from a small band called Shiny Toy Guns. I guess they've just signed a contract with a label so we'll hear more from them soon. But, in the meantime, we can rest assured that Paris won't be coming to a town near us anytime soon. Or, if she does, she'll be singing as part of a duet.
