Paris Hilton is reportedly upset over a vacant billboard in Auckland, New Zealand that shows her face with the word "vacant" written next to it.
The company that put the image on the empty billboard, Media5, had no permission to use her image and will be hearing from Hilton's lawyers. Adam McGregor from Media5 told the Sunday Star-Times the company was not using Hilton to endorse their billboards but were "just having a bit of fun. We wanted to draw some attention to some of our unsold display as we expanded, so we briefed a friend who runs his own boutique agency to work up a range of creative concepts. We liked the ones he came up with using high-profile public figures the best because they were fun."
They also added that they would take down the image if Paris demanded that and that they were not trying to offend anyone. Readers, do you think they really thought this would offend Paris?
