A 28 year old Pakistani, Mohammad Zeeshan says,” Quite exciting. Bumping into a celebrity is always nice. You never know what Paris Hilton will do. She lives in her old fantasy land and has her own artificial bubble of life. I wish she could come here more often. She is a party animal and a cool chick, which I like personally, but for a role model, I guess she is not that great.”

ParisHilton C. S Sagoo, a 62 year old British National said,” She’s outstanding and quite controversial, I’m not all that affected by her visit to Dubai. We have heard a lot of scandalous things about her from the press, whether they are true or not, we can not be sure. If they are all right, she can not be a good role model. I don’t think her arrival would affect UAE as such, but a certain younger generation might just want to go and see her, her outfits, her accessories and things like that. But the mature section of the public won’t be affected at all by her."

A 35 year old writer from India, Sveltana F. said, “Her every move is being covered, what that says about us and the society we live in. It is not very positive at all." The party at the Festival City will feature DJ’s Pierre Ravan and Danny Nevelle, and will also host a competition in which twenty contestants will be competing in Paris Hilton’s reality show to be her new BFF!
