Paris Hilton infects Africa

The Mercury News has a sense of humor because they let us know that the “noted humanitarian Hilton” flew to South Africa. Paris is there, not as part of her promised charitable visit she talked about last year, but to accompany boyfriend Benji Madden who’s playing My Coke Fest in Johannesburg. Hilton did take the time to do a photo op at the Jakaranda Kinderhuis children’s home though. That was pretty nice of her to take time out of her schedule of doing nothing.

Hilton doled out autographs, xeroxed pictures and hugs during a reportedly two-hour visit with the kids.

Knowing Paris, this will assuage her guilt about never making a visit to Rwanda. South Africa is just as good as East Africa and North Africa. They all have 12-year-olds running around with machine guns lions. So dangerous. They’re behind 15 foot glass walls. Maybe even 14 foot! Eeek!
