Google Trends works based on percentage increases, not just sheer volume. In America (and presumably other western countries), the number of searches for Paris Hilton is consistently large, so a shock like the recent news coverage would have a smaller impact on the overall figure. In the non-Western world, we would expect interest in Paris Hilton to spike at certain times, but to have a much lower average.
