The American Presidential campaign took a fascinating twist last week – John McCain published an advertisement suggesting his rival, Barack Obama, wasn’t a real contender but a lightweight celebrity like Britney Spears or Paris Hilton. ‘He’s the biggest celebrity in the world,’ it said. ‘But, is he ready to lead?’
Well it seems that somebody else was prompted to ask herself the question – and came up with a surprising answer.
Paris Hilton posted a video on the internet in which she introduces herself as a celebrity: ‘Only I’m not from the olden days, and I’m not promising change like that other guy. I’m just hot,’ she says, and then thanks the ‘white-haired dude’ (McCain) for mentioning her in a campaign ad, which she suddenly realises means she’s running for president. It’s a hilarious and very professional send up of herself and then came the final proof that she’s serious – she’s launching a campaign T-shirt bearing the slogan ‘Paris for President’ of course. They will be on sale before the end of August and the mind absolutely boggles …
