Eco-Friendly Paris Hilton - Adrien Grenier's Green Influence (VIDEO)

And you thought stars only influenced their fans? Turns out celebs can have just as much impact on fellow lime-light baskers.

Hunky Entourage star, Adrien Grenier, has rubbed off on Paris the heiress. Ms. Hilton has jumped the bandwagon of celebrities looking to reduce their carbon footprints—seems she’s ready to use her Hollywood status for a little do-gooder promotion.

An unlikely duo, as Tree Hugger put it, “These pals have about as much in common as Al Gore and Donald Trump.” The pair attended the 11th Hour ForestEthics premier together, and have been spotted zooming around in a Toyoto Prius hybrid, “scoping out a new eco-friendly home for Paris.”

Grenier told Paris, “You’re the most photographed woman in the world. Think what you could do if you used that attention to bring light to a cause.”

Gorgeous Grenier has always been into environmentalism. For him, it’s no publicity student; it’s a way of life. “I try to eat free range organic foods. I try and walk if I can, which is why I love New York. Take a train. My home is a green home. To me I look at it as an investment and the things may cost a little bit more but ultimately it pays for itself. And then it gives you low emissions and its good for the environment. So people invest in all sorts of bizarre things. Why not invest in the quality of life?” Nice quote, TreeHugger!

Check out the video to see him deliver his green spiel at the 11th Hour Premiere.

What do you think, is Paris an eco-liar?

  A survey recently conducted in the UK is saying that people are lying to appear more eco-friendly. I can see the need to lie about the size of your penis, but faking the amount of electicity you use, or incresing your recycling heap is the craziest thing I’ve heard today.

I blame the celebrities. … [More]

What gives Mr. Grenier the credentials to transform Ms. Hilton from an eco-simpleton to a green savant? Adrian Grenier has been a study of sustainable living since long before it was the cause du jour. In a 1999 interview, the young man on the verge of celebrity waxed theoretical on the product service system possibilities for lost and found bins: "I think winter wear is communal," he said. "You get some gloves and a scarf from a lost-and-found box, wash them, wear them for a while until you lose them. Then somebody else does the same thing." (treehugger)

I just interviewed Adrien in Toronto the other day for his band The Honey Brothers and he drove to the interview in a Prius- he told me he likes to do what he can for the environment! I love it!
