Paris Hilton Brain Trust Reunited
May 8, 2007Like a moth to a flame (or a dog revisiting its breakfast) publicist Elliott Mintz has re-upped for the Paris Hilton campaign. (Remember, in just 9 years Paris will be eligible to run for President of the United States!)
Mintz, 62, took the blame (and was fired) for supposedly counseling Paris that she could drive for work after her license was suspended, although the judge didn’t believe him. He “wouldn’t elaborate on why he reunited with Hilton.”
He’s probably paid decently, and working with the “idiot savant” heiress spotlights his public relations abilities, which can attract more business. But I don’t think that’s why Mintz, who’s also represented John Lennon and Bob Dylan, is willing to repeatedly take the fall for her.
Very simply, he sees she’s in trouble and he wants to help her.
