On her MySpace blog yesterday Paris Hilton seems so excited inviting her friends and fans in the San Diego area to catch her for Repo! The Genetic Opera Comic-Con panel discussion.
I know this seems too late of me to do this post about Paris Hilton’s upcoming flick, Repo! The Genetic Opera, but as I often mention here, I’m no big fan of Paris and have just started following her life when I took over this post.
So anyway, what is Repo! The Genetic Opera about?
Repo! The Genetic Opera is a rock musical movie based on a play written and composed by Darren Smith and Terrance Zdunich.
If you haven’t heard about it yet, or have just heard about it, Paris Hilton landed a role for a thriller musical entitled, REPO: The Genetic Opera.
And for the film’s promotion, Paris invites her friends and fans in the San Diego area through her blog that she along with the film’s cast and creators will be there tomorrow night to discuss about the film.
I’ve missed several days due to illness and, Paris being Paris, the news has piled up in the meantime! First, the big news is the trailer to Paris’ new movie, “Repo! The Genetic Opera,” which is featured above. I’m a big fan of horror movies, but I’m honestly not too sure about this one. I’ve never been a huge fan of Paris’ singing and, quite frankly, I’m rather embarrassed for Paul Sorvino, a great actor, who seems to be stuck in this mess! Watch and let me know what you think.
In other Paris news, our heiress was the most talked-about person in 2007, according to a survey by a Canadian communications company. “Socialite heiress Hilton came above the Queen as the personality with the most coverage in a survey of 632 million news items across 120 countries carried out by Influence Communications.” No big surprise here.
On the fashion scene, Paris is expected to attend Moscow Fashion Week. She is scheduled to appear at the show of Russian designer Kira Plastinina, who is only 14 years old! Apparently, the teen designer adores Paris, and told her father she wanted to have Paris herself visit the show. Paris is, reportedly, being paid two million dollars for her mere presence. We should all be so lucky!
Tomorrow, I’ll update you on the rest of the Paris news of the last few days. I wish I could say my life has been as exciting as hers but, due to some terrible flu bug, I’ve felt awful. It’s be interesting to see how Paris looked with the same type of bug I’ve had. Wonder if she’d still be in makeup and hair extenstions!
Here it is! The by-now infamous video of Paris being grilledinterviewed by David Letterman! Dave really pulled no punches on this one!
Paris was scheduled to appear on “Late Show With David Letterman” earlier in the summer. Unfortunately, she missed out on that appearance, due to her unfortunate jail sentence for a probation violation. She had not appeared on Dave’s show since her jail term, and Dave was quick to make up for lost time! After first asking how she was, Dave jumped right into the questions about Paris’ time in the Century Regional Detention Center in Lynnwood, CA.
“How’d you like being in jail?” he asked.
“Not too much,” Paris naturally replied.
Dave didn’t let up from there. He asked her humorous questions regarding jail food. “What would breakfast be?”
“Like a hard-boiled egg and an orange,” she said.
He then went on with questions about lunch and dinner. Paris began to kick her leg and squirm on her seat in annoyance. After cooperating for a few minutes, Paris wanted to change the subject. “I’ve moved on with my life, so I don’t really want to talk about any more,” she said.
Dave quickly replied, “This is where you and I are different, because that’s all I want to talk about!”
At one point, an audience member shouted, “I love you, Paris!” Paris replied “I love you, too!” and blew a kiss. Dave was quick to jump on this. “Is that someone you met in jail?” he asked.
Finally, after Paris’ comment that Dave was making her “sad I came,” Dave apologized and changed the subject, questioning Paris about her upcoming film “Rep! The Genetic Opera” and her new perfume.
Paris should have expected this kind of stuff from Dave. The rest of us have certainly come to expect it. After all, lots of people consider Paris’ jail term to be the most interesting thing she’s done!
Paris has begun filming on her new horror-musical movie, “Repo! The Genetic Opera“, in Canada. Here’s a plot synopsis of the movie, which is being directed by Darren Lynn Bousman, who directed the “Saw” series:
“Set in the not-so-distant future, the production tells the story of an epidemic of organ failures that devastates the planet, killing tens of millions. As scientists feverishly make plans for a massive organ harvest program, a multi-billion dollar biotech company called GeneCo begins to manufacture salvation – for a price – offering simple payment plans to those lacking the necessary funds to purchase new body parts outright. But all financed organs are subject to default procedures, including repossession at the hands of the notorious organ repo men.?
With Bousman at the helm, there’s sure to be a lot of blood and gore in this movie. I’ve always been a big fan of horror, and I can’t wait to see the upcoming “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” starring Johnny Depp, which is another horror-musical type movie. But I’ve never been too fond of seeing Paris in the movies. I mean, let’s face it. If you had to choose between watching Paris Hilton directed by Darren Lynn Bousman, or Johnny Depp directed by Tim Burton, would it really be too difficult a choice?
I might catch it on DVD, though. After all, in addition to Paris, it has Paul Sorvino and Anthony Head, who are two great actors. What do you think? Do you have the stomach to sit through Paris in a horror movie again after House of Wax? To be honest, the thought of Paris being in a movie makes it horror enough for me!
Hollywood Today reports that our favorite heiress has joined the cast of Repo! The Genetic Opera, a campy sci-fi musical movie, directed by Darren Lynn Bousman of Saw fame!
The movie will tell the tale of a time when human organs, ravaged by the future plague, could be replaced by expensive man-made counterparts. The new organs could be paid off in installments. Just don’t get behind on your payments, or the Repo Man (or woman) will pay a gruesome visit.
According to Bousman, “I have auditioned at least 30 actresses for this role — Paris came in and owned it. She is this role.? The film also stars Paul Sorvino and Alexa Vega (Spy Kids).
I’ve liked the Saw movies, but I’m not sure I could stomach this one! Paris singing is more gore than I can take!
