Linking Paris Hilton to Dale Earnhardt Jr

Much hoopla has been made about Paris Hilton going to jail and at the same time Dale Earnhardt Jr. announcing what team he'll be driving for when he lives the team that bears his father name. While one is a popular athlete and the other is a dote socialite, did you know that they have several things in common with one another? Before jumping to conclusions, there'll be no blonde jokes here-even though that is similarity number one!

They both have yet to justify their place in the limelight. Sure, Dale Earnhardt Jr. has won his share of races but Paris Hilton has also sold over half a million records and starred in a disturbingly popular television show. Success, right? No! Paris Hilton is still as useless as ever and Dale Earnhardt Jr. has yet to win a Cup championship. When NASCAR bumped Jeff Gordon out of the way in order to groom Dale Earnhardt Jr. not too many people were upset, but he's yet to win a championship to justify that media blitz. Until Paris Hilton does something worth talking about and Dale Earnhardt Jr. wins a race, then there's simply no getting around the fact that neither has justified their place in the limelight as of yet.

Music Video Appearances While they've never been seen together and hopefully Earnhardt will be smart enough to avoid her like the plague, they've both been in their share of videos because of their celebrity. Not counting the music videos that Paris Hilton shot to go along with her album, she has be seen in videos by Eminem and John Oates while Dale Earnhardt Jr. was famous featured in videos from Jay-Z, Dave Matthews Band and Sheryl Crow. Not many athletes or dote socialites can claim to have been featured in a successful music artist's music video.
