Paris Hasn't Seen McCain Attack Ad, Probably Won't

John McCain may have given Paris Hilton a costarring role in his latest political ad slamming opponent Barack Obama, but he shouldn't expect a thank you note any time soon.

"She hasn't even seen the ad," said a friend close to Paris. "She knows about it, people have told her, but she hasn't seen it, and she doesn't plan to."

How could she have missed such press? Some in Hollywood would pay good money to be featured in an ad playing over and over on the television airwaves...

"She's on tour with Benji [Madden] and isn't watching television and has not been on the Internet," said the source. "But she's already said she's not too happy about it."

That's interesting, since Paris' parents are big McCain supporters (even contributing recently to his presidential campaign). But it turns out Paris has chosen not to publicly state who she's rooting for.

"She doesn't consider herself a political figure, and so she does not appreciate being used in that way," said the insider. "She'd prefer the candidates just leave her out of it."
