Hilton's team quickly went on damage control, claiming the cab driver secretly recorded Paris' conversation with a gay friend. Her rep also released a statement explaining that Paris's comments were taken out of context:
"Paris Hilton’s comments were to express that it is dangerous for anyone to have unprotected sex that could lead to a life threatening disease. The conversation became heated, after a close gay friend told her in a cab ride, a story about a gay man who has AIDS and is knowingly having unprotected sex. He also discussed a website that encourages random sex by gay men with strangers.
"As she was being shown the website her comments were in reference to those people promoting themselves on the site. The cab driver who recorded this, only provided a portion of the conversation. It was not her intent to make any derogatory comments about all gays. Paris Hilton is a huge supporter of the gay community and would never purposefully make any negative statements about anyone’s sexual orientation."

They are Hypocrites and should overhaul their own lives because they never know when they will become a "has been" whom no one remembers.
If you have anything to lose, you know it's not safe to speak in public anymore. The 'exceptions' who make their names stating the most obvious/offensive things only show how dangerous we believe honest speech is for the rest of us in this politically correct culture by making their living as paid proxies.
