In Sydney to host an exclusive New Year’s dance party, Paris drew criticism for spending 5,560 Australian dollars (3,844 US dollars) in a 40-minute shopping spree.
Local charities accused her of callous excess but Hilton Wednesday defended the splurge.
“I’m in Australia, I think it’s important to help out, you know, the economy out here, everywhere in the world,” she told reporters, ahead of her New Year engagement.
“And what’s wrong with doing a little shopping? It’s New Year’s, I need a New Year’s dress.”
Acting Prime Minister Julia Gillard, questioned during a news conference Tuesday about Hilton’s shopping spree, commended the socialite for recognising Australia’s attraction as a fashion and shopping destination.
“I heard that a politician said that,” Hilton said. “I thought that was very sweet and it’s true.”

Petty and envious reporters are always trying to throw something at Paris.
If they can’t find anything they make something up.
I completely agree. People are always so jealous of Paris and making such hateful/nasty comments b/c of it.
tell me about it.
Woehoe!
Great job, Paris!
They should just be slapped in the face by a wet cod.
