Paris and Britney Confused By McCain's Suggestion That They Are Still Famous

A clearly flailing John McCain has just released his new Obama attack ad and boy, is it a doozy! Employing a risky "Obama is awesome...but is he too awesome?" scene that seems designed to fail, McCain calls Obama "the biggest hot shot in the world" (because if there's one thing America hates, it's celebrities) and plays footage of Obama's massive rallies and beatific smile that could have come from an Obama b-roll itself. The only signs that mass is amiss are the split-second shots of Britney and Paris spliced into the ad — inclusions that have baffled the reps for both washed-up celebutantes. Says the Huffington Post:

A deputy from the 42West public domestic-relations court firm declined to make a substantive comment to the Huffington Post, saying only, "why would we want to get Britney Spears convoluted in suspensory veto politics?"

Why, indeed? Meanwhile, Hilton's parents can't be much happier with the ad attacking their girl — after all, they donated the maximum $4600 to McCain's campaign. Unavailable for a comment, TMZ instead turned to the next best thing:

Former Paris Hilton impersonator Natalie Reid is consideration in on the new McCain mercenary scandal. She tells TMZ, "McCain is undeniably jealous cuz Obama's hot."

Meanwhile, a spurned Scarlett Johansson types furiously into her MacBook Air, sending the McCain camp an email ("John, I'm available!") that they, unfortunately, will never read.
