As Usual, the Playground Has the Facts Right, But Misses the Point Entirely

From Xinhua, China's Pravda:

Paris Hilton to be Harvard's Woman of the Year

BEIJING, Jan. 15 -- Paris Hilton is heading to Harvard University, but not to study--she will be named its Woman of the Year.

The socialite is scheduled to stop by the Cambridge, Massachusetts, institution on Feb. 6 during a promotional tour for her new movie The Hottie and the Nottie.

And PageSix.com claims she will pick up the award from Harvard's Hasty Pudding Club the very next day.

Previous Women of the Year include Scarlett Johansson, Halle Berry and Sarah Jessica Parker.

Here's the truth. Yes, she's getting the award at Harvard. Even so, it's like if someone received, oh, I don't know, an Ig Nobel in Stockholm, and you said they got a Nobel prize. Actually, it's very much like that.

Still, Xinhua's Paris Hilton page is pretty funny. Pic #2 is excellent.
