paris hiltonParis Hilton has revealed she was offered a role in the West End production of Chicago.

Paris was offered a stint as Roxie Hart in the long-running version the musical - following in the footsteps of Ashlee Simpson, Denise van Outen and Claire Sweeney - later this year but she’s now said that she’s had to back out of it.

She explained: “We did some rehearsals, but then I found out it was six days a week for a couple of months.

“I was flattered, but with my schedule, there was no way I could fit it in.”

The socialite is expected to spend time in London later this year, filming a UK version of her forthcoming reality television series Paris Hilton: New Best Friend about her efforts to audition new partying pals.
