Paris Hilton is reportedly trying to distance herself from her latest film National Lampoon’s Pledge This because she doesn’t want it to damage her reputation.

An inside source told the New York Post’s PageSix: “The premiere was supposed to have been on October 11th in Chicago, but Paris called at the last minute and canceled, claiming she had to promote her album.”

“The producers didn’t want to have the premiere without her because she’s the biggest star in the movie… so they rescheduled for October 28th.”

“The movie is horrific. It is a limited release that will likely go straight to video. Paris doesn’t really want to be associated with it. Her movie career is not exactly booming, and she needs to not be seen as a flop.

“Also, the movie has a lot of topless women in it, and she is trying to distance herself from the whole porn thing.”

A spokesperson for Paris confirmed that she would attend the premiere but wouldn’t elaborate any further.
