Who would have thunk it? Club Paris owner Fred Khalilian has reportedly fired Paris Hilton from the two nightclubs that bear her name, one here in good ol' Orlando and the other in Jacksonville.
Why you ask? Because she has better sense than to go to them, or at least show up when she's supposed to. How this is shocking I have no clue, when she was six hours late to the grand opening of the club in Orlando, that should had been a red flag, don't ya think? So what do they plan on doing with the name? Oh they're keeping it, according to this link on Yahoo, Khalilian says it now refers to the city in France, not the heiress. I would like to see someone shell out $10,000 next New Year's Eve to share a balcony with Khalilian in a club named after a city it would cost a fraction of that to vacation in. But you'll hear more on that in my column next week after I get a chance to talk to Khalilian myself.
But, for all of you naysayers two years ago that said the club wouldn't last six months, I would like to say, I was right when I said it would last at least a year. But now, I'm officially starting the clock on this death watch.
