Filed under: Celebrity Animals, Paris Hilton
When ANIMAL magazine asked Michael K and I to come up with celebrity animals, we immediately noticed how much Paris Hilton resembles a proboscis monkey. Thing is, we found an even better animal to represent Paris….but it’s a secret. You have to wait until ANIMAL no. 7 comes out to see it. For now, enjoy Paris as a primate. Proboscis monkeys are endangered, but Paris Hilton types seem to be flourishing. I wish it were the other way around. Medium: Ink, acrylic, burnt sage leaves on paper. Latin phrase by Michael K.

I love that everyone is trashing Paris Hilton! This monkey impersonation of Paris suits her completely! I never saw the resemblance before.

Oh man. This… is just so perfect. I don’t know if I believe that the no. 7 animal will be more fitting because I’ve already clung to this monkeyParis so tightly I don’t think I’ll ever let go.
Look what you did. Now I want to marry you. Jeez. You can’t go around making people fall in love with you like this, 14.

GAH! I jumped with sick glee once my page had loaded and I saw that there was new artwork posted!!
You have Skankeus Vapidus’ posture DOWN PAT. That is soooo how she stands and she’s retarded and now that I know she’s half Proboscis Monkey that makes SOOOO much sense.
What would we do without you?

Apparently, the new Philton saying is “That’s sexy.” She debuted it on Ellen this week. To which, Ellen used it repeatedly within the 6 minute span of her interview, thereby causing the phrase to lose all interest, if it even had any to begin with.
Although the proboscis monkey IS sexy.

Nicky looks like one of the monkeys too.
Their mating rituals are probably classier than hers, not to mention more hygenic!
So much love,

PS. I want you to become so famous that there will be a museum for your work. All the celebrities can come view themselves and view our filthy comments as well. I am still angry at Thomas Kinkade!

perfection. I also enjoyed her as a snake. She’s clearly not human, but some sort of hybrid slutbag.

ahahaha perfect! I bet that’s why she stopped carrying around that poor monkey awhile ago– she was afraid people would notice the resemblence.

You know the store owners on Redeo Drive really need to start sponsering a mating programme least the poor Paris monkey finally becomes extinct.

LOL! Paris Hilton IS a primate. Her figure is not nearly that cute though.
Where’s Michael K been lately anyway? I haven’t been able to get on DListed in a couple of days.

I adore your genius as much as a bemoan the fact that I will never look at poor innocent monkeys the same way again.
Hot.

Paris Hilton is a primate. But then so am I, and so are you (I presume) and, indeed, so is the entire human race.

I’ve always pictured Paris Hilton as a mosquito. The monkey is fantastic, though. Great work.

Miss Golden Crotch is in love with herself! That is very obvious. What a loser she is. her father should exile her to an uninhabited island near the south pole. Is her father pimping her out? The world is tired of hearing about miss prissy. She should dig a big hole and bury herself,nobody would care except her! Whoever did the cartoon of her should get a medal for being so accurate. Shoot her out into Space where she can be with the rest of her croonies. What a looser she is.

I wrote a story with a character from “old money” whose family paid him obscene amounts of money to simply stay out of public view, not embarrass them, and not father any children.
I wonder how much money the Hiltons would have to pay to make Paris “disappear” in a similar fashion?
