Paris threatens to sue Kiwi firm over vacant ad

Melbourne (ANI): Paris Hilton has threatened to slap legal papers to a New Zealand company that showed her picture with the word "vacant" written across it in an advertisement. Her manager Jamie Freed said Media5 used the image without permission and may expect a lawsuit, reports the Herald Sun.

Media5''s Adam McGregor said the organisation was only having a "bit of fun" with the billboard and that they were not trying to offend anyone. He told the Sunday Star Times: "We were thinking about using Winston Peters, but Paris is much prettier and she has a proven ability to laugh at herself."
