GMC's new celebrity spokesperson? ;)

Paris Hilton trading in super cars for Yukon Hybrid
Posted Feb 13th 2008 10:28AM by Jonathon Ramsey

Paris Hilton has turned a new green leaf. Well, not including the partying, the drunken serenading, and the regrettable choice of film roles. But when it comes to vehicles, out have gone the SLRs, Bentleys, and other cars of the super variety, and in is coming a Yukon Hybrid.

Her driver's seat is going to need an absorbent pad in the middle.

Thank God this is not an official sponsorship! That would have been a major PR faux pas to hook up with that skank. Her choosing it on her own is not so bad though.

Funny thing, she did a radio interview for WMMR in Philadelphia.

She sounded a lot nicer and more intelligent than I thought. The radio show staff were astonished, they expected her to be dumb as a brick and incredibly self-centered.

But yeah, she's not a good choice for a spokeswoman.

part of me, if not most, believes the dumbness is a scam to keep interest up. not the partying (what 20 year old doesnt party?, especially ones with money?), but the sheer unintelligence.

They say that all publicity is good publicity. I've even read that when Michael Jackson got put on trial for being a pedophile, his CDs would sell out from stores. How terrible is that!

On the radio show, after they were finished Hilton asked for some coffee. Someone got her some of their office coffee, and they apologized before they gave it to her because it was just some normal brand and it wasn't as good as Starbucks or McDonald's and definitely not as good as the stuff she could get at a Hilton hotel. Apparently, she said "It's fine, thank you. It's a lot better than the coffee in prison."

Hopefully the rest of Hollywood follows, I don't see this as a bad thing.

Exactly what I was thinking. But who really cares? Its not like shes going to be the Tiger Woods of GMC. She just got one, thats about it. Didnt Paris & Nichole Richie drive a pink Suburban in the Simplelife anyway?
