(Pacific Coast News)more pics Paris Hilton (Pacific Coast News) Paris Hilton has become much more than just a sexy blonde who covers the latest issue of Britain's FHM. If we're to believe what she recently told the men's magazine, she's raked in an astounding $1.3 billion over the last six years. And here's how.

Her Stores: Hilton has "35 stores and 17 product lines" that generate millions of dollars each year. Some of these include locations in the Philippines and Bahrain of all places.

Her Brand: Thing is, none of her stores would find the success they have without the famous socialite's face behind them. When you see the Hilton name, you expect quality. After all, she is an heiress. And not just any heiress. Hilton Hotels & Resorts have over 530 hotels across the globe in 78 countries!

Her Products: "I'm involved in my products every step of the way," Hilton tells FHM. "They've produced more than $1.3 billion in revenue since 2005." Meaning: She can have all the! stores in the world, but without product to fill them with, she won't generate any revenue. And so at the end of the day, it's the goods that help her bring home the bacon, so to speak.
