Hallmark to Paris Hilton - You are a Joke
Posted on November 8, 2007 at 9:48 pm (PST)
In September Paris Hilton filed a lawsuit against Hallmark for making a funny card that used her image. Click here to see it. Hallmark filed a motion in court to dismiss the lawsuit which read in part:
"Hilton has become a household name, based in large part on her efforts to draw attention to herself. Having done so, she has subjected herself to public scrutiny and the parodist’s pen. The First Amendment does not allow her to respond by welcoming the fawning and flattering, but silencing the critical and comical."
If Hallmark really wanted to make Paris look bad, all they had to do is put a picture of her Herpes prescription on the card, and say "Get well soon."

Paris Hilton Sues Over Hallmark Card
Posted on September 7, 2007 at 11:00 am (PST)
Paris Hilton is suing Hallmark for using her image, and her trademarked phrase "That’s Hot," for $500,000 in damages. She also claims Hallmark misappropriated her image and invaded her privacy with the card.
Paris is depicted in Hallmark’s greeting cards showing her in an innocent light using clean and harmless humor. Paris is known for crotch flashing, drug toking, DUI driving, and One Night in Paris home made porn. How could Hallmark try to make Paris seem all Disney? In an alternate universe Paris would have to pay Hallmark for cleaning up her image, and the judge would personally kick her flabby a$$ out of his courtroom with his size 12 cowboy boot. My favorite is the one below. I’m sending that one out for Christmas.
