Everyone is making fun of Paris Hilton’s upcoming movie musical Repo! The Genetic Opera, but from this clip it just looks like every musical ever, except The Sound Of Music. This clip is more than watchable for the part where Paris comes out singing in her breathy, weak non-voice. You know sometimes someone will be described as having stage presence but you don’t really see it? We should all watch Paris in this clip for contrast. She has negative stage presence:

  1. Dear God. Can we just declare this the worst movie ever now? I think it already beats anything Gabe’s watched yet.

    yeah, this is pretty much going to be the worst thing humans have created yet.

  3. This movie is going to be so awful I CAN’T WAIT to see it. Terrible musicals are my thing.

  4. Nancy Reagan should get behind this. I mean making back alley drug users into musical theatre stars led by Paris Hilton has got to be the biggest drug abuse deterrent evarrr.
