"We are thrilled to work with Paris to explore her complicated relationship with the public, the press and the politics that shape or perception of a modern celebrity."

Whether or not the Marilyn Monroe comparison is justified, Paris Hilton is almost a guaranteed sales draw if nothing else. The Guardian reports that Paris Hilton also recently signed with Lil Wayne's music label for her second album.
