AP: In the beginning of the film, a few scenes feature you being taped with a camcorder. Whose idea was that?

Hilton: That was in the script. I just went along with it. I wanted to show people I can make fun of myself and not take anything too seriously.

AP: How long did it take you to come to that point?

Hilton: I don't know. Over this past year.

AP: What's your favorite horror movie?

Hilton: I like a lot of the old, creepy classics like the Freddy Kruger movies and "The Shining." Jack Nicholson is really scary.

AP: Who do you want to be your new "Simple Life" co-star?

Hilton: I want it to be Kim (Stewart, daughter of rocker Rod), but it could be anybody. I don't know.

AP: Have you spoken to Nicole following the big breakup?

Hilton: No, we haven't spoke in a while. I've been very busy with my boyfriend and the movie and everything. She's been very busy. She's engaged.

AP: So what could you possibly do on "Simple Life 4"?

Hilton: Go to Maui.

AP: Why?

Hilton: They want to sex it up, have us more in swimsuits and stuff.

AP: But what would you do?

Hilton: I don't know. We could work as lifeguards or work in a hotel or something.

AP: "Baywatch" tried that and it didn't work.

Hilton: Tried what?

AP: They went from the United States to Hawaii, which I guess is technically the United States. Anyway, it didn't work.

Hilton: (Silence.)

AP: So are you really a ditz?

Hilton: That's just for the show.

AP: Is the "Simple Life" scripted?

Hilton: Not really. That's what we're trying to do to freshen it up. I mean, not like the first season.
