See more Paris Hilton videos at Funny or Die
Pop heiress Paris Hilton has announced her bid for presidency with a hilarious parody campaign video on comedy site Funny or Die.
The socialite's spoof ad (embedded) is a response to the unauthorized use of her image in an ad released last Wednesday by Sen. John McCain's camp, that suggested Democratic rival Sen. Barack Obama is nothing more than a lightweight celebrity.
"I guess [that] means I'm running for president," Hilton says in the video, in which she is seen sunbathing, outlining her plans to resolve the energy crisis and thanking McCain, who she refers to as "that wrinkly white-haired guy," for his endorsement.
"She got it that the McCain thing was a low blow," Adam McKay, co-creator of Hilton's parody, told AFP. "And she felt she didn't want to return it with angry fire, and that this was the best way to respond. It's a playful jab."
Hilton, more often the butt of jokes on the internet, has managed to wrangle the virtual upper hand with her rebuttal.
