Paris Gets Waxed


Last week I saw the preview for the new horror flick “House of Wax” and I called Josh. “I know this is awful,” I said, “but I want to see Paris Hilton’s new horror movie.”

It’s the kind of movie you see on a Friday night with a tub of popcorn slathered in gallons of butter in one hand and an extra-large Diet Coke in the other, laughing with your friends as Paris Hilton and her finger lickin’ good co-stars get picked off one by one. I mean, who doesn’t kind of want to see Paris Hilton get brutally taken out on-screen?

Chad Michael Murray and Jared Padalecki apparently provide ample man candy in the movie. The “House of Wax” web site shows lots of movie stills of Chad shirtless and that’s something I can’t complain about in a Paris Hilton Friday night slasher movie.

Also on the “House of Wax” web site you can listen to Paris Hilton’s podcast. It’s complete trashy entertainment. Listen as Paris leaves the Letterman show, bitching about Dave pressing questions about the fight with Nicole Ritchie. Listen to Paris getting all the softball questions given to her before her “Regis & Kelly” interview. Then at Butter, a hot restaurant in downtown New York, Paris talks about the $2 million in diamonds she’s wearing for her film’s TriBeCa Film Festival premiere. (One question: How did “House of Wax” get into an actual film festival? How?) Paris’s podcast is another one of those train wreck things—it’s so bad that you can’t help being curious.

And speaking of separated at birth…

Jared Padalecki (left) is one of the sexy stars of “House of Wax.” You may recognize Jared from “Gilmore Girls” where he played Dean Forester or from “New York Minute” where he played Trey Lipton opposite the Olson Twins.

When I saw Jared’s picture I couldn’t help think that he looked like he could be the brother of hot-and-single Scott from Friendster (right).

Cute boys, no?
