Paris Sued For Failing To Promote Her Film

Paris Hilton is in the spotlight again! No, there’s neither a sex tape, nor a book; not even a drunkenness. This time she has been accused of failing to fulfill promotional obligations for a 2006 sorority comedy in which she appeared.

As maintained by Worldwide Entertainment Group Inc, the distributors of National Lampoon's Pledge This!, the "iconic blonde of the decade" – as she called herself - owes them $75,000 in damages for ditching promotional obligations.

Papers, filed at the US District Court in Miami by the global entertainment company, say the celebutante was paid $1m (£526,119) for her "acting services".

Due to the high sum, she was expected to provide "reasonable promotion and publicity" for the comedy film; but she didn’t.

Presidential candidate Paris Hilton received an executive producer credit on the film, in which she played sorority queen Victoria English. Filming began in early 2004 in Miami, Florida, before the ex-model of Donald Trump’s agency even started filming her theatrical debut “House of Wax.”

What WEG are actually accusing the “New York's leading It Girl" is that she didn’t appear on talk shows or give any comment as she was expected to.

The blonde Hilton is one of the two authors of the autobiographical book called “Confessions of an Heiress: A Tongue-in-Chic Peek Behind the Pose,” book that was satirized by Prof. Robert Mundell on “The Late Show” with David Letterman.
