Jeffrey Mayer/WireImage.comParis Hilton sure loves doing it with animals. Hey, I'm talking about posing for pics, here!
We've already seen plenty of shots of her with Tinker Bell and her menagerie of other furry friends, but an upcoming magazine spread is my favorite. "Paris Hilton in Your Wildest Animal Fantasies," a press release announces, is "more shocking than Lindsay Lohan's pictorial spread in New York magazine."
Well, yeah, if you're into stuffed animals, because the hotel heiress posed for a four-page story with people in elephant, bear and gorilla costumes. It was all for the Harvard Lampoon's upcoming spoof of National Geographic.
The photos are embargoed for now, but I got a sneak peek earlier today. In one pic, Hilton straddles the back of the bear. In others, she's hugged from behind by the gorilla and the elephant.
With tongue firmly planted in cheek, an assistant photographer identified as Wesley Jefferson is quoted in the story as saying, "Paris really wanted to stage a tableau of the execution scene at the end of Brecht's Threepenny Opera. But she ended up being okay with the animals, too."
The issue hits stands on—when else?—April Fool's Day.
