Paris Hilton Flashes, Christine Lakin Steals The Show

February 10, 2008

Paris Hilton tried everything she could do to promote "The Hottie and the Nottie". The film was not well received, the only saving grace may have been Christine Lakin (as whatever show there was) stole the show. Maybe she should have received top billing. But the move billed as a "romantic comedy" that starred Hilton, Joel David Moore, and Lakin, bombed with Jessica Simpson like numbers and opened Friday to $9,000 on 111 screens, or $81 per screen, according to Box Office Mojo.

It was not for lack of trying. People magazine notes that Hilton's "Hottie" indeed disappointed, despite a whirlwind three weeks of film promotion for Hilton. She premiered the film in Hollywood and Dallas, appeared in Philadelphia, at Harvard University, and the Sundance Film Festival, and on talk shows Late Show with David Letterman and MTV's TRL.

And she was even out flashing her breasts to get attention, but that didn't work either. Now granted her flash to a crowd was accidental. Tina Sims reported earlier that Hilton was dancing and singing up a storm at "The Estate" in Boston when she gave the crowd more than they were expecting. Her dressed slipped, revealing her breasts. She grabbed and shielded herself with her hands.
