New book Six Degrees of Paris Hilton profiles Darnell Riley, a shady criminal and pseudo-celebrity hanger-on who knows many wicked Hollywood-sleaze secrets. The tome spins many damning stories about the hood-lidded socialite's sordid existence.
The book, out next month, is by Mark Ebner and he delves into the lives of many sordid types—sloshy actress Tara Reid, solo porn star and MTV VJ Simon Rex (with whom Hilton also made a sex tape), various Playboy Playmates, and of course Girls Gone Wild impresario Joe Francis. And they all seem, in one way or another, to orbit around the great Dark Planet created by one Paris Hilton.
Hilton is infamous for the One Night in Paris sex tape that was released "without her consent" by the gentleman in the video, sleazy sideliner Rick Solomon. Rumors later circulated that Ms. Hilton was complicit in the leaking of the tape, so long as she saw some of the profits. The whole book basically paints Hilton as a duped-into-doing-it-on-camera victim for hire.
Riley, who is in prison for robbing, sexually assaulting, and blackmailing Joe Francis, says that, for sure, Hilton was in on the whole first sex tape charade. And, he alleges, it wasn't the last time the Simple Life reality stain filmed herself in flagrante delicto. Riley supposedly got a hold of several ssseeecret tapes of the nightclub fly. By, you know, stealing them from some "Russian kids" who had stolen them from her house. One tape in particular showed a litany of bad behavior: drugs, racism, taxicab fingerbangs. Riley gives Ebner some details about the tape:
Paris, of course, has said she has no idea who Riley is.
