Philly sure can attract the celebrity. Yesterday Senator Hillary Clinton graced our fair walks to secure support from Governor Rendell and Mayor Nutter for her presidential bid. But her appearance pales in importance against the paragon of womanhood who is visiting us today. Yes, folks, that’s right: Paris Hilton is in town. Again. This time she’s not shilling perfume, but rather her new film The Hottie and the Nottie. Although it doesn’t get an official release for another couple of weeks, we think it is a shoo-in for a special honor on CinePhillyist, and we’ll place our bets on that now. Anyways, Ms. Hilton was on the 10 Show! this morning and will be visiting Franklin Mills Mall tonight from 6-7PM prior to the premiere of said instant-classic at the mall’s AMC. She’s not staying to actually watch it, since she’s not a masochist; it’s sadist all the way baby! Ronnie Polaneczky at the Daily News offers her some tips and history, much of which is interesting and thought-provoking. Especially the part about her getting a massage on one of the Minute Masseuse lounge chairs next to a feisty WWII vet. That’s Hot. (Oh, come on, you knew it was coming.)

  • If you can't wait to see the result of the legal proceedings against Senator Vince Fumo... well, get used to disappointment, because the trial isn't likely to start until early 2008, and it'll probably go on three to four months.

    Two random bits of Philly news picked up from the web which are in no way related, except by our "clever" headline. (Admit it, some days you wish you were as "brilliant" as we are.)

    Fun and interesting stuff on TV this week:

    Monkeys make everything better. The average person already knows this, and it has only been confirmed by recent findings of the American Monkeyological Congress (AMC) and the National Association for the Study of Awesome Things (NASAT). But if you want to see the evidence for yourself, join the folks down at Art Star this Saturday at the opening reception for their new exhibit: Matthew Porter's Monkey World. The boutique, now in its second year, is hosting a "Punch and Pie party" this Saturday to celebrate this new primate portfolio.
