PARIS HILTON TO APPEAR AS HERSELF IN GUEST-STARRING ROLE ON NBC'S 'MY
NAME IS EARL' IN THE ONE-HOUR SEASON RETURN ON APRIL 3
BURBANK March 4, 2008 Paris Hilton ("The
Simple Life") will guest-star as herself on NBC's "My Name
Is Earl" (Thursdays, 8-8:30 p.m. ET) in the one-hour episode marking
the series' original broadcast return scheduled for Thursday, April 3,
8-9:00 p.m. ET.
In the episode "I Won't Die With A Little Help From My
Friends," Earl (Jason Lee) is unconscious and various things from
real life are bleeding into his unconscious mind -- which viewers will
see. Paris Hilton is one of those things in Earl's fevered mind.
Said Greg Garcia, the series' creator and executive producer:
"When we wrote the role of Paris Hilton in the script, we weren't
exactly sure who to go with for the role. But after an exhausting search
we finally settled on a relatively unknown actress by the name of Paris
Hilton. I can't wait to see what she does with the role and I can't wait
for America to discover her."
Hilton recently wrapped production on the feature film "Repo: The
Genetic Opera" for Lionsgate Entertainment.
Created and written by Emmy Award winner Greg Garcia ("Yes,
Dear"), "My Name Is Earl" is executive-produced by Garcia,
and Bobby Bowman ("Yes, Dear"). Amigos de Garcia and Twentieth
Century Fox Television produce the series.
