Word is the lovely and talented Paris Hilton will be approximately one mile away from us tonight at a movie premiere for her new flick, “The Hottie and the Nottie,” being held at the Regent Highland Park Village Cinema. Friends, this looks like quite a film. Apparently the movie’s plot centers on a boy (played by Joel Moore) who is in love with Paris’s character (ahem, the hottie), which is complicated by her oh-so-unattractive best friend June, the nottie. We’re expecting hilarity, love, and fate to all twist together to churn out some sort of surprise ending, which will inevitably leave us with an lesson on inner beauty triumphing once again over blond hair extensions and giggles.
June is played by Dallas girl Christine Lakin, so hopefully this will be her star turn. Pretty sure this is a closed event, but if you’re really desperate you can show up around 6pm with camera phones and try to catch a glimpse.
Later (and I think we all could have predicted this one), Paris will be partying at the Ghostbar. She will walk the red carpet around 9pm, but us plebs aren’t allowed in until 11. No cover at the door. Go if you must, and let us know what happens.
I heard from a friend who lives with a group of friends in Hollywood who have just moved in with a group of bankrupt writers in a house off Cold Water Canyon that the Gardner’s son who interns at Regent heard from a guy in a picket line at Sony that this has a lot of Oscar Buzz.
I clicked on Christine Lakin, and saw her head shot.
I think you have the hottie and the nottie backwards.
I think I’d rather watch a Barry Manilow cover band….
DM: um, slight run-on sentence…almost needed a roadmap to follow your comment.
But Oscar buzz? With Paris Hilton as one of the leads? Oh, geez. Another “strike” in movie-land.
But is this a better movie for Christine than “Buck Naked Arson?”
Paris Hilton lovely and talented? Try hot and farcical - and not much more.
Nate: I think DM was being facetious.
Jim: I think Sarah was being ironic.
If she has raccoon eyes we know what she’s been doing.
