(AP)  American socialite Paris Hilton checked out Shanghai fashions, cuddled stuffed pandas and sauntered along the famous waterfront Bund on Thursday while visiting China's most style-conscious city for the MTV Style awards.

"Shanghai looks like the future!" Hilton said in a news conference at the Hyatt on the waterfront, one of the newest landmarks in a city teeming with new skyscrapers.

The celebrity heiress, author, singer, perfume designer and reality TV star was spending two days touring China's commercial capital before Friday night's gala awards for Chinese style and fashion trendsetters.

A visit to the city's jam-packed Yu Yuan Garden gave her an authentic taste of Shanghainese "xiaolongbao" - juicy steam buns and flower tea - and the crowding common in the city of more than 20 million people.

But Hilton, unfazed by the press of onlookers, carried on with her shopping, pausing to hug an elderly lady and to pose in several dresses by Chinese designer Lu Kun, one of the city's hottest new fashion stars.

Why does it matter in the slightest what this airhead strumpe thinks, says, or does? You, CBS, should be ashamed for reporting this guano. Walter and Ed (may he rest in peace) must vomit when they realize that this passes for news or information from a once great network.

Maybe I don''t know any better, but spending your life going around shopping for things, seems like a sad, sad life.

Paris, while in China express America''s anger with the Chinese for turning back 8000 U.S. Sailors whose Aircraft Carrier Battle Group lead by the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk and its escort of warships who were turned away at the last minute by the Chinese prior to docking on Thanksgiving in Hong Kong and set sail back to Japan shortly thereafter! Many U.S. families had flown to Hong Kong to meet their loved ones for a 4 day rest and recuperation period only to be disappointed and denied. That was very mean spirited of China and your visit to China Paris came at a bad time. Also tell China they should pay for dumping 1000''s of gallons of heavy Oil into the San Francisco Bay recently and should pay to have it cleaned up! China was very ugly and mean spirited on Thanksgiving to America''s Military and their families and we won''t forget!

I read this news article for one reason only, so that I could post this:

Who gives a crud? What is it with the weirdness of this world that people are so fascinated by such a vacuous caricature of a person? What about things that really matter? I don''t deny anyone their happiness, including both the people who seem to enjoy these meaningless stories as well as Paris herself. But this fascination doesn''t makes sense to me and is disturbing.

Shanghai impressed by Paris too! My gawd, she is so talented. So many Chinese girls in villages identify with Paris & her free-spending ways.

Air kisses! Tee hee!
