• Paris Hilton Named 'Best New Female DJ of the Year'; Deadmau5 Responds

    The votes are in and, according to some, or to many, Paris Hilton is the Best New Female DJ in the world. She has been given this title by the NRJ DJ Awards, an award show done by French radio station NRJ, according to Dancing Astronaut. The award show started in 2012 and takes place each fall in Monaco. The station also just celebrated the 15th year of its original music awards show, The NRJ Music Awards, in conjunction with TF1, one of the major French-government-owned TV networks. Voted by fans, Hilton has found herself on top of the game in France. The award show also gave out plaudits to Steve Aoki for Producer of the Year, David Guetta for Best French DJ of the Year, Avicii for Album of the Year for "True" and Best Male International DJ, Martin Garrix for Best Live Performance and Club Hit of the Year with "Animals" and DJ Oriska for Best Female DJ of the Year. With Hilton's popularity and polarizing nature in dance music, she might soon be topping that poll, though deadmau5 has an opinion on that.
