Have fans forgotten that Paris Hilton used to release some genuinely catchy songs?
She's not only a celebrity recognized for her wealth; these days, the hotel heiress has begun a number of entertainment pursuits, ranging from modeling to writing to acting, DJing, and, most recently, podcasting.
Paris has done various things in recent years to broaden and solidify the renown she has worked hard for from the beginning of her "The Simple Life" days.
As previously said, Paris dabbled with music for a short time. However, there was one song she passed down the opportunity to perform that quickly became a major success for another musician.
Would Paris Hilton be a musician now if she hadn't declined the song?
Paris Hilton Supposed Hit Song
Many people have heard of The Pussycat Dolls' "Don't Cha," which became their biggest song and characterized their group's existence.
The song, however, was not theirs; it was initially presented to Paris Hilton.
The song was written by Busta Rhymes and CeeLo Green, and the initial version was sung by Tori Alamaze. She finally relinquished the rights to the music, and Universal Records promptly sold it around to various musicians.
According to Digital Spy, Paris Hilton opted not to record the song because she didn't think the music was perfect.
When the re-recorded song "Don't Cha" became the Top-Selling Song of the Year in 2005, the erstwhile burlesque trio became one of the biggest musical artists of the mid-2000s.
Paris Hilton was reportedly startled by how things turned out when the song was released.
She said that the version she first heard differed significantly from the one ultimately recorded by the Pussycat Dolls.
"If I'd heard that, of course, I'd have leaped at the chance," the "House of Wax" actress said.
Paris Hilton Song That Faced A Lawsuit
Paris Hilton released her self-titled first album in 2006, but it was met with controversy. Though she did not continue as a vocalist, she remained involved with music and became an exceptional DJ.
Per NME, Paris only had one hit song, which prompted a lawsuit, which was subsequently resolved out of court in 2009.
"Stars Are Blind" was allegedly too close to the legendary reggae song "Kingston Town," prompting Paris and Warner Chappell Music to sue.
