Just a day after it was revealed that Paris Hilton rakes up to $1 million dollars per performance—beating out other DJs like Deadmau5, Tiesto and even Calvin Harris—Deadmau5 slammed the heiress on his blog.

"So Paris makes a billion dollars playing a CD at a club. That's great. How is this news again?" he began his war of words against the bubbly blonde.

"Look, as much as she's probably loathed by the EDM world… and me, you can't possibly hold it against her for involvement in the electronic music scene…I remember back when, at the Cosmo in Vegas, she attended, and I guess I was accommodating (as far as that usually goes for me) I could see she was having a fun time, liked the music, and just wanted to be a part of it all… so of course, why not… even I couldn't hate on that."

Deadmau5 continued, "But, let's get real here for a second…There's being involved / enthusiastic about something…and then there's just being a straight up ass."

He also compared her foray into the EDM world to someone without any experience entering into the Indy 500.

"So Paris, thank you… were actually not even mad you're enthusiastic about electronic music… we love that you're a part of our party. But please, get the f--k back in your go kart. 

"No need to prove that you found someone stupid enough to consider paying you a million dollars for something the world knows you aren't… because here's what you actually are to everyone who knows better…Ticket sales. Nothing more."

Meanwhile, neither Hilton's mood nor career seems to have been affected by the diss.

She tweeted earlier today, "Yay! Exciting news! Just signed a huge residency deal at one of my favorite cities in the world! #LovingLife #KillingIt."
