Paris Hilton Takes her Gold Power Pumps into the Political Ring

Paris Reporting For Duty: “I want America to know I’m, like, totally ready to lead”

The results are in and the winner of this week’s great political tussle is the corn fed, milk-raised… Paris Hilton? Apparently so. A focus group survey conducted by HCD Research of New Jersey shows that Republicans, Democrats and Independents believe the ditzy celebrity boosted her image with her playful video response to an ad by John McCain’s Republican campaign.

The McCain ad sneeringly lumped rival Barack Obama with Hilton and pop artist Britney Spears, the message being that celebrity isn’t always the same as leadership. Hilton responded with a video message in which she sports a leopard-print swimsuit, lounges in a recliner and thanks the “wrinkly, white-haired dude” for drawing her into the presidential race.

“I want America to know I’m, like, totally ready to lead,” Paris declares. ShoeMinx loves Will Ferrell’s site Funnyordie.com and consider this one of their best killer coups. The video has become an instant hit. And so have the shoes.

The best part of the video - aside from her super hot heels - was her analysis of the country’s energy crisis. Perhaps her whole dumb, blonde, rich girl persona is just an act? In any case, we love this cheeky response to McCain’s unflattering remarks, not to mention the fabulous metallic pumps she sported with her sexy one-piece.

Paris Does Vegas: Hilton Heiress Launches Fall Footwear Line at Macys

Paris Hilton Goes Heel-to-Heel with Fergie

Despite dating rocker Benji Madden and a brief baby bump blip, faux-lebrity Paris Hilton has been largely absent from the tabs as of late. So perhaps Hilton should have avoided scheduling her launch event on the same day that hip-hop princess Stacey “Fergie” Ferguson was debuting her own shoe line across town. Just a thought. Unless this is a clever ploy to create a mock heel-to-heel battle between the multi-hypenated celeb-designers for press attention and sales. In which case, let the showdown begin!

The “Hottie and the Nottie” heiress began her contractual promo duties at Sin City’s Macy’s department store posing for glamour shots on a chaise lounge and wearing a blue summer dress with gold heels (which we assume are from her line) and a matching clutch. And in true Paris style, the “Stars are Blind” party professional staged a second launch event at one of her favorite haunts, Pure Nightclub.

Though it pains us to say it, we have to give her props for wearing what appear to be her own shoes to both events, unlike Fergs. As Asos.com reported from Vegas,

“After arriving in a crisp white shift dress, white oversized sunglasses and a pair of beige Mary-Janes, the Fergalicious one quickly changed into a pair of tan strappy sandals from her range.”

That’s just bad PR when you’re pimping product. And if there’s one thing Paris does best it’s publicity.

While Fergie’s line is big on gladiators sandals and street gear, Paris’ shoes are pretty much what you would expect, namely heels and slingbacks. What you might not expect after her first collection is the notable absence of Barbie doll pink this time out. The color palate has been toned down for fall and features more muted hues. Prices are expected to run about $50 a pair for the starter styles.

Paris may have ruffled some fashion feathers with the blatant rip-off of Christian Louboutin and Te Casan in her first collection, but her shoes do offer more stylish options for fashionistas with less than dainty feet. A size-11 herself, she commented,

“Yeah, it sucks, because I see all these super cute shoes in the stores: Guccis, YSLs, Manolos. And when they bring them out in my size, they look like clown shoes.”

So which celeb line does ShoeMinx think will win wallet share? Fergie is tops on the Billboard chart, but Paris might have an edge in shoe sales, according to Kitson’s Do’s and Don’ts for Celebrity Designers. Plus, she must have a decent amount of merch to land a second collection. View the entire Paris Hilton debut collection here. Now all that has to happen is for Perez Hilton to get into the Pump Endorsing Business. He’s already trying to lock up flip-flops.

You tell us. Which line would you wear – Fergalicious or Paris Hilton?
