It may have been Paris Hilton’s best performance yet.
Too bad it wasn’t caught on film.
The hotel chain heiress took the stand Friday in her own defense against a lawsuit that claims she didn’t do her part to promote the movie “Pledge This!“
Hilton seemed quite comfortable in the courtroom on Friday, taking notes and reading through court documents as attorneys went through the legal jargon with the judge.
“I promoted this movie from the very beginning, basically plugging this movie more than I ever plugged anything in my life,“ she told Judge Federico Moreno. “I’m an Aquarius, so I’m very creative. I do the creativity and they do the business.“
Hilton chronicled what she did to push the movie during her 90-plus minute testimony, along with giving her astrological reading for the month.
After finishing up, Hilton seemed quite enthralled with Moreno and didn’t hesitate to throw a little sugar on top of her testimony.
“You’re the best judge ever!“ she squeaked, to which Moreno responded,
“Thanks, but I’m going to rule based on the law.“
The lawsuit, filed by investors in the movie, claims Hilton refused to do interviews and other promotions for the $7.5 million film, which only earned about $2.9 million.
The investors are seeking $8.3 million in damages.
