Paris Hilton As Your Sales Spokesperson???

Let me re-phrase that.  "Paris Hilton as her own sales spokesperson???"

A new video game for mobile phones was introduced late last week, featuring Paris Hilton.  The problem was, she forgot the name of her own game while trying to sell it:

After arriving 90 minutes late, she appeared wearing a minidress and red platform pumps, and said to the waiting crowd: "Sorry I'm late. I'm really excited to have my new video game, 'Diamond Quest'. Thank you all for coming, and you can download the game."

Unfortunately for her, the game is actually called 'Jewel Jam'. The dumb blonde even managed to get the name wrong despite being surrounded by loads of posters featuring the game's real name.

It's always a good policy to know what you're selling.  But that's just me...

She is no dummy -- I would not have known about Diamond Quest (er ... Jewel Jam) unless she had done that. I've now read about this faux pas from at least five different sources.

Don't think that thought didn't cross my mind... :-)
