Could Paris Hilton Hair Extensions Cost $35 Million?

Paris Hilton's hair extensions could become the most expensive fake hair in the history of America. According to the New York Daily News, Paris Hilton's is wearing the wrong weave, and as such will owe a company $35 million in damages.

The $35 million claim is about 10 times the amount that Hilton was paid to wear the weave from the company. Furthermore the alleged competitor's hair was worn way back in 2008.

In addition, the company also claims they lost $6.6 million after Hilton failed to attend a launch party. Was the hotel heiress partying down? No. She was simply behind bars because of her DUI incidents.

There are claims that Hilton is a serial commitment breaker. She was reportedly paid $1 million to appear in a movie called "Pledge This!" The movie only made $3 million in theaters despite the $8 million production costs. That company sued her because they don't think she promoted the film properly.

The hair extensions lawsuit just add to Hilton's recent legal woes. The socialite has been accused of having marijuana on her person at least a couple times this year - once at the World Cup and the other in France.

So what is causing all this headache for the blonde beauty? Could it be that she just doesn't care about her obligations, or do you think that these individuals are coming after her because of her money? If they sue Paris Hilton, there's a pretty good chance they would be able to collect what they are awarded.

As for the whole hair extension thing...I don't see the big deal. After all, I wouldn't be able to tell one hair extension company from another.

Still yet, if Hilton was paid to wear certain hair extensions and then failed to do so that cold be a big problem. If there's a signed contract, and she broke it - that could have serious ramifications.

Word to the wise - honor your contractual agreements. You never know which parties are going to be willing to sue you should you not do as you say and agree too.

I still think $35 million is a bit much given that she was only paid $3.5 million to wear the extensions. Then again, we live in America and our legal system allows for these types of lawsuits.
