It's the Principle! (And the Press.)

Fred Khalilian, owner of the Orlando and Jacksonville, Florida-based Paris clubs (named after the omnipresent heiress), is definitely squeezing every last PR opportunity out of his association with Ms. Hilton.

Apparently, Hilton’s perpetual unreliability (get this—she’s late a lot) has prompted Khalilian to fire the socialite. (Going forward, the clubs’ names will refer to the city, not the celeb.) We applaud Khalilian for taking this brave stand, and are sure it has nothing to do with the hope of getting ink like this for his Sunshine State ventures.
