This past Saturday night, Paris Hilton was seen wandering around West Hollywood with someone who was reportedly a Buddhist munk and the new spiritual advisor to Paris. Over the weekend, the Daily News said this:
Paris Hilton has stepped out with the latest fashion must-have – her very own Buddhist monk, complete with flowing orange robes and a mane of grey hair.Paris went for an understated look, with a demure white outfit as she browsed the shelves of the Bodhi Tree bookstore.The hotel-heiress has been attempting change her party-girl image and it looks as if the ageing monk is giving her a helping hand.Paris and her "guru" sat down to read a book called "The Path to the Painted Shaman" and the Hollwood celebrity appeared to be listening intently to what he had to say.The monk also persuaded Paris to give away a piece of diamond jewelry as they wandered the streets together.
So you didn't think Paris Hilton was phony enough? Her "Guru" that has supposedly changed her life is actually a Hollywood actor. His name is Maxie Santillan. He's starred in tons of films and TV shows including "My Name is Earl" and "Pirates of the Caribbean."
His IMDb page is here, his myspace here. Hats off to TMZ for uncovering this deception. It was almost the perfect crime. His likeness to a real Buddhist monk is uncanny, unless you were to look at him. Buddha himself would think it was real!
