Woman Sues Paris for Stealing Her Style

132-paris-hilton2.jpg

When a friend, co-worker, or classmate starts dressing a little too close to your personal style, there isn’t really too much you can do other than flinging a passive-aggressive (non)compliment her way or staring at the offending item in an accusatory manner.

At least, that’s what we always thought…

But apparently, for California woman Nicolle O’Neill, this was not enough. Convinced that Paris Hilton stole her personal style, she actually filed a lawsuit claiming emotional distress. Contactmusic.com has more:

“Two pages of documents spell out specific charges against Hilton, including a claim that she stole O’Neill’s idea to expose her underwear under her trousers. O’Neill also claims Paris swiped her idea to shop in vintage stores for retro dresses. Hilton has yet to issue a response to the allegations.”

We say: Nicolle, we feel your pain, but there’s no way Paris’ outfits (um, did you see her Halloween costume?) can be attributed to anything other than her own deranged mind.

Wow. This is utterly ridiculous. Though Paris is often mocked and isn't the brightest crayon in the box at times, I feel a bit sorry for her - People seem to unfairly target her all the time. It's got to suck to be used as a scapegoat all the time or to be sued for just wearing something.

HILARIOUS.
who on earth would want to claim that Paris' fashion disasters were their idea anyways? Exposing your underwear under your trousers? SO FASHION FORWARD!


thanks for the laugh!

Hey Nicolle,

Paris isn't the only girl who dresses like you. You just want attention, famewhore!

Didn't Monica Lewinsky start the entire "I can see your thong" thing? So how do we know Nicolle with two Ls didn't steal it from Monica? And, by the way, vintage shops exist so people can shop for retro clothes in them. Someone hit the crackpipe a little too hard ...

oh gee.. who would want to admit that paris owns something that you do aswell
but you should research on how sienna wears everything kate does. i read this magazine article about it with pics and first i was totally on siennas side but there are a few strange coincidences: style wise, friends wise, even smoking wise and so on and so forth
