Those New Zealanders have a wicked sense of humour, don’t they?  Although Paris Hilton would beg to differ.  Apparently, the celebutard doesn’t appreciate her image being used to advertise vacant billboard space in Aukland, and has instructed her business manager Jamie Freed to contact her lawyers.

The company, Media5, which handles 70 advertising sites in Wellington and Auckland, say they weren’t using Hilton to endorse their billboards and that they “were just having a bit of fun”…she has a proven ability to laugh at herself”.  She does, but only as long as she’s getting paid to do it.

Should Hilton’s lawyers require her image to be removed, the company will cooperate.  “We’re not trying to offend anyone“, said Media5′s Adam McGregor.

If the image does end up being removed at her request, guess we can add “buzz-kill” to Paris’ repertoire.
