Paris Hilton on YourTube

With a little help from Paris Hilton, video-sharing site YouTube today announced the launch of two new advertising concepts that take queues from the site’s own user-generated content. “Hey, YouTubers, it’s Paris,” purrs socialite and aspiring pop-singer Paris Hilton in a new video that graces the right sidebar of the online video hub’s front page.

I admit it, I watched the video and it was horrible. However, if this is what it takes to keep YouTube free to the average user then fine by me. What’s humorous about the video however, is how many times the scene ‘switches’.
