Hilton Flack Elliot Mintz Elicits Angry Statement From Nat'l Assoc. for the Advancement of Oompah Loompahs
Posted by Seth at 6:52 AM on February 12, 2008
Ringing in her 27th birthday a little early this weekend--plus the recent addition of a new litter of 13 pomerhuahuas to her ever-growing doggie menagerie--Paris Hilton celebrated by indulging her inner wild-child, throwing on a tiara, pink hair extensions, and a pair of varicose-vein-patterned tights, and table-dancing the night away at a party virtually devoid of pissy rap stars. What inspired off-again/on-again grenade-jumper Elliot Mintz to show up with a face smeared in a brownish-orange substance isn't entirely clear, however. While Mintz initially insisted the look was the result of having tripped and landed face-first into Lisa Rinna's back on his way into the festivities, the meticulous, ear-to-ear coverage suggested something else entirely:
That the fiercely loyal flack had finally succeeded in doing what publicist-watchers had long feared he would, managing to squeeze not just his nose, but his entire head and neck up his demanding client's hindquarters.

Obviously he's trying to re-create that party where Paris bravely saved the life of a nearly-crushed Oompah Loompah. That is a dedicated publicist.

At least he had the decency to close his eyes before diving in.

I think this was taken at the rebranded "Orange British Film Awards." Well, if I were Elliot, that'd be my story.

He should have gone with the pink face and orange tie.

@BestFrenemies: Genius.
I love that jacket. @SugartitsMcFirecrotch: that's exactly what it looks like, and I want it. I need a new coat for Eighties Night.

I'm intrigued by the mysterious lack of orange paint between his eyebrows...I'm surprised his clearly talented makeup artist made such a faux pas! Dear lord he's beautiful.

I just puked. It was orange-ish colored. Yes, I think so.
Let me compare the two...hang on....
Yes, orange-ish puke. Unquestionably.

If he wore a white tie would his face be less orange? Me thinks we are all reacting to his face because of that pinkish tie.
Although, sometimes it's good to be colorblind, no?

Horrifically repulsive as this is, I can't stop looking at it. I'm drawn like a moth to a day-glo orange flame. What's with that suspiciously pink patch of skin between his eyes?

No wonder Paris Hilton's the laughing stock of the world if THAT'S how her publicist decides to arrive at a party he KNOWS are full of paps.
On a simialr note, I was walking down Poydras in New Orleans 20-something years ago and saw a 70+ year old woman headed toward me, her face painted battleship gray (it stopped at her jaw line), except for her bright red lipstick. She was dressed in cha-cha pants and open-toe sandals and a blouse that was 30 years too young for her, while smoking a cigarette. It was not Mardi Gras. Or Halloween. Or anywhere close to either holiday. THIS is what that reminds me of.

He looks like a crazy old lady from my childhood. She smelled of mouthwash and cigarettes, and tottered up the aisle a few minutes early for communion every week at mass. My parents told us not laugh, that she was sick. Later I would realize that smell was whiskey. Surely Elliot has some 'frosting' in his nose, can we get another angle?

This is clearly the tragic results of early Bond laser weaponry that terrorized us all in the classic, "Dr. No-More-Chemical-Peels". He was the sexy houseboy, "Orange Julius".

Classic. And I can think of nothing to even put a dent in the "oompah loompah" headline. Sigh, what are we gonna do without you Mark. Almost hating you at this point, man, lol...

Elliot Mintz's "experiment" was a flop. So he just left his underground lab and headed straight for the festivities.

Hey, is he wearing one of those self-tanning jackets? You put it on, stand in the sun and wait for the rays to reflect and tan your face. He looks like a human kernel popping out of an oversize Jiffy-Pop.

actually that IS his real face. Like how jack nicholson joker needs to paint skin colour over his white face to look "normal".
What I really like is how his pink tie plays up the pink around his beady eyes and hairline. Oh and the slacket is clearly for easy wipe-up later in the night when he'll be on Paris clean-up duty.
