Paris Hilton
- Paris Hilton's new show 'Cooking With Paris' can be seen on Netflix, and it looks like Hilton is totally owning her ditzy persona. However, it seems to be a more authentic and relatable version of her than we've seen before. The trailer shows her cooking in full red carpet glam with a diamond spatula, accidentally sprinkling the food with feathers falling from her outfit. She's certainly not pretending she's a top chef so there will be plenty of mistakes, but hopefully no food poisoning... She is joined in the kitchen by celebrity guests like Kim Kardashian, Demi Lovato, and in one episode, her mom and sister.
