It's official: Paris Hilton will be frigid - when she dies. She announced that she wants to be frozen to preserve her bod. Paparazzi are already signing up to be frozen right after her, and thawed just before her to capture it all. "That's hot" has been replaced by "That's cold."
"It's so cool," Hilton said of cryogentics. "Almost all the cells in the body are still alive when death is pronounced. And if you're immediately cooled, you can be perfectly preserved. My life could be extended by hundreds and thousands of years."
Cryogentics, freezing of bodies for thawing later, takes a lot of energy. Freezing Paris, Texas might make more sense.
