In New Video, Paris Hilton Rebukes McCain, Successfully Pronounces Big Words
Posted by Defamer Hollywood at 10:15 AM on August 6, 2008
First we were forced to give reluctant props to reality wannabe Khloe Kardashian, and now this: Paris Hilton has starred in a new video rebutting John McCain's "Celeb" ad, and it's...sigh, not that bad. Sure, we can give the lion's share of credit to writer Adam McKay (though he didn't help Step Brothers any), but the dim-bulb heiress totally nails her lines, forcing our grudging admiration. Just one bit of advice, Paris: though your proposed energy plan is intriguing, you'd better stay away from Tyra as VP.
Watch the video, after the jump:

You know what's sad about this? The American public would probably vote for her.

@Huge Tracts of Land: At least she held it right-side up...

The pretending to read part kind of made me laugh a little.

Good thing there's no relationship between Conde Nast and the Hilton family or I might label this as a clumsy social media marketing ploy.

The "smart" part of her ad? Total CGI.

If Paris does become President, I'm sticking by my suggestion that the ANTM Model that gave the Blonsky sandwich should totes be Secretary of Defense. Or at least send her to Iraq.

@WGARefugee: Yeah, at least she knew the barest facts of reading: that you have to use your eyes and that you have to look at words!

If there's anyone who knows about drilling, that would be Paris Hilton.

My god. I'm laughing at Paris Hilton, but not in the usual way. Excuse me while I drop something on the floor just to make sure that the law of gravity wasn't repealed while I was watching this...

Tom Cruise, take note: you want to get your career back? Make an Obama video. All will be forgiven, especially if it works.

Initially they asked Britney to do the ad, but she just laid down by the pool with tanning lotion and a bucket of chicken.

Notice how little light is left for the final close up?
Maybe her first 300 takes took awhile?

@Huge Tracts of Land: @WGARefugee: Maybe she didn't even have to read i.e. she had a voice in her ear feeding her lines?

Wow, Paris really went all out, pretending to be literate and everything- so fresh! But srsly. I wanted to hate on her, but she was kind of adorable, and she's got that whole mocking-herself thing down to a fine art.

That is seriously probably the best solution to the energy crisis I've heard yet.
See you at the debates, bitches!

She did a similar thing on The OC some years ago, telling Seth how she had to go home to work on her thesis about Magical Realism in 20th century American literature. Terrible actress, but a good sport...

It's amazing what a decent script can do for a person. It's like she had a brain makeover.

Paris videos are better when she's soaping herself wet washing a big black car; I don't need the sound on for that...

It's killing me but I really love this.
She's finally validated her existence.

It's funny because she doesn't realize the joke is on her. It's funny for that very reason.
