Paris Hilton is working with Stan Lee on a comic
Promoting Repo! The Genetic Opera, her most recent film endeavor, Paris Hilton arrived at Stingaree, the Downtown nightclub, amid a cacophony of camera shutters that seemed to follow her every step.
A poised, subdued and perhaps even panty-wearing Hilton worked the red carpet, where she chatted it up with CityBeat. We learned that Paris 2.0 hasn’t yet seen The Dark Knight because she’s been showing up incognito at theaters, only to find sold-out shows; we heard about her plans to become a cartoon; and she told us all about how BF Benji Madden took her to a local Applebee’s, and she now hearts the chain restaurant.
“We ordered, like, everything in the menu,” Hilton said. “The Ivy [in L.A.] is good, but Applebee’s is actually better.”
Enrique: “Besides the yummy “Ultimate Trios” dish at Applebee’s, how’s San Diego treating you?”
Paris: “I love San Diego—it’s so relaxing. I’ve been coming here since I was a little girl with my grandfather to see Chargers games and to SeaWorld. It’s so different now.”
E: Your character [in Repo!], Amber Sweet, is obsessed with plastic surgery and appearance modification. How did you approach her?
P: “[In the movie] I’m basically this girl with a lot of father issues, so she gets all this plastic surgery, kind of to get acceptance from her father, who’s, like, a very cold man. In every scene I look completely different; she has a different nose, different hair color, different eyes. It was a very hard character to play.”
E: “If you could wake up with any super power, what would it be?”
P: “To be invisible—that would be fun.”
E: “What would your superhero name be?”
P: Actually, I’ve created a superhero with Stan Lee, which is [based on] me, and we’re doing a cartoon right now with MTV.”
E: “If you could have a fling with any Star Trek character, which one would it be?”
P: “None. I have a boyfriend, and, um, I don’t watch Star Trek.”
