Paris Hilton has landed her next big movie role — and she’s said to have demanded live lobsters as part of her contract.
Hilton will appear alongside Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Samuel L. Jackson and Eva Mendes in the cop-action comedy “The Other Guys,” now shooting in New York.
A source reports, “Paris has a cameo role in the movie, where she plays herself. It is all being kept very hush-hush.
“But the producers were shocked when her team handed them a three-page list of demands — including live lobsters to be prepared fresh when she’s ready to eat and a bottle of Grey Goose vodka — all for just one day on the set.
“All celebrities are typically offered riders, but it seemed excessive for just one day’s work playing herself. She was due to fly to New York to film in secret last week.”
Hilton has recently been keen to demonstrate that her party days are behind her — she branded the LA party scene “brutal” — and she wants to concentrate on her career and romance with Doug Reinhardt.
“The Other Guys,” directed by Adam McKay, also stars Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Michael Keaton and Steve Coogan, with cameos by other celebrities.
The movie focuses on a New York police precinct, where Jackson and Johnson play an elite cop duo while Ferrell and Wahlberg play bungling detectives.
No word if Hilton, who was cuffed in a DUI bust in 2006, gets arrested in the film. But on Thursday, she reportedly tweeted: “Just got done with the fitting with the stylist for the new Will Ferrell movie I’m shooting in NY. Excited! Will is my favorite comedian.” But the posting was later taken down.
A Hilton rep said of the lobster story, “This is totally ridiculous and untrue.”
