Paris Hilton: Idol of Gay Hollywood?

TMZ.com reports:

The eldest Hilton sister and her mother Kathy were both sighted at The Hollywood Museum the other day. Of course, they weren’t there trying to soak up anything intellectual, instead they were being honored as ‘Idols of Gay Hollywood.’

Since the two were the Grand Marshalls of LA Gay Pride last year, the outfits they wore will be included in an exhibit on the gay pride movement, along with those of other gay icons like Judy Garland, Barbra Streisand, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, Bette Davis, and Joan Crawford.

When asked why the gay community has embraced her, Hilton responds, ‘I think because I’m free-spirited, I’m real, I like to have fun, I enjoy life and I think that’s what’s the gay community’s about, they enjoy life, have fun and I’m just honored to be a part of this with so many wonderful women, like Marilyn Monroe.’
