Paris stretches her acting muscles on Ferrell film
According to the New York Post's Page Six, the blond heiress was cast in a hush-hush cameo role, playing herself. But Hilton didn't make any friends on the set, reportedly making outlandish demands of the crew -- even though she only spent one day to film her scene.
"The producers were shocked when her team handed them a three-page list of demands -- including live lobsters to be prepared fresh when she's ready to eat and a bottle of Grey Goose vodka," said Page Six's source. "All celebrities are typically offered riders, but it seemed excessive for just one day's work playing herself. She was due to fly to New York to film in secret last week."
What, no tiaras or special tutus for her dogs? Seems like Hilton was showing restraint.
Hilton's rep dismissed the story as "totally ridiculous and untrue," though last week, the 28-year-old Tweeted about her part in The Other Guys (the post was quickly removed, however).
"Just got done with the fitting with the stylist for the new Will Ferrell movie I'm shooting in NY," she wrote in the deleted Tweet. "Excited! Will is my favourite comedian."
