Socialite Paris Hilton has pulled out of an appearance at the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas, Nevada on Monday after objecting to jokes in her script which allegedly poke fun at her celebrity friends. The hotel heiress was set to co-host the ceremony with new best pal Britney Spears, but the singing star backed out of her role on Thursday - just hours after the announcement was made.
Hilton has now followed in Spears' footsteps, after representatives claimed the show's bosses could not reach an agreement with the 25-year-old over the content of the script, which Hilton found "objectionable." Her spokesman Elliot Mintz says, "It is my understanding that some satirical references ridiculed some of her peers. Paris did not want to say anything that could appear hurtful or embarrassing about people she knows.
