That Paris Hilton sure can deliver a line!

A day after she released a mock presidential campaign ad spoofing John McCain, the Web Site that posted it revealed the heiress shot the entire skit without the help of cue-cards.

In other words, she memorized the entire skit. What can we say? Paris Hilton is ready for her close-up Mr. Demille!

The spoof, posted on the Web Site Funnyordie.com, features Paris detailing her energy plan while lounging on a pool chaise in a leopard print bathing suit.

The site’s co-founder Adam McKay came up with the concept for a mock ad starring Hilton, which has received over 3 million views since it was posted Tuesday.

”Adam thought it would be really funny to get Paris to respond to the John McCain ad that featured her,” Funny or Die content director Amy Rhodes told The Associated Press on Wednesday. ”

Adam contacted Paris directly, and she agreed to do it. He wrote the sketch. And she really, really loved it.”

McCain’s original campaign ad used an image of Paris to mock Democratic nominee Barack Obama as an international celebrity.

In an attempt to revamp her image for promiscuous heiress to serious public figure, Paris Hilton has gone on publicity overdrive to promote her latest venture: a trip to Africa next month.

Playing for Good is the celebrity charity organization behind Hilton’s journey. The charity is sponsoring Paris’ trip to Rwanda, and will have cameras following the ex-con blondie to gain footage for a proposed TV reality show, The Philanthropist.

The show, which Playing for Good hopes to sell to a US television network, will document celebrities participating in charitable endeavors. However, in Paris’ case, it’s unclear whether she’s going to Africa to save her image or help bring attention to the underprivileged in Africa.

Referring to the camera crew that will be filming her transformation into a philanthropist, Paris says, “I love having everything documented. It shows people what everyday life is like for me, how hard I work. There are a lot of misconceptions about me.”

Nice, Paris. You’re so giving!

Finally, a celeb who’s hired a driver!

Paris Hilton returned to the club scene Wednesday night, hitting up Hollywood hot spot Les Deux at 12:30 a.m.

“She was chain smoking all night and mixing her own vodka drinks with the bottles on her table!” an onlooker source tells Usmagazine.com.

By 12:45 a.m., the heiress (clad in short black dress, knee-highs and a garter belt) did what she does best: She began table dancing (while chatting on her Blackberry, no less).

Later, when The Police tune “Message In A Bottle” began playing, “Paris literally kept jumping up and down,” the witness says. “She was doing shots that a cocktail waitress kept bringing around.”

(She even squeezed in some cuddle time with on-and-off beau Stavros Niarchos, whom “she immediately hopped down from where she was sitting and hugged and kissed him” when he arrived, the onlooker said.)

Seems all the partying hasn’t affected Hilton’s judgment: When the lights came on at 1:45 a.m., the heiress (who was arrested for DUI in 2006) was overheard telling pals she wasn’t getting behind the wheel: She hired a driver.

Finally, getting things right, Paris!

That move will probaby end up paying for itself from tickets to DUI’s.

With a new image comes a new reality show.

As she announced last month, Paris Hilton is set to journey to Rwanda on a charity mission with the Playing for Good organization, and as it is always the case, cameras will be following her.

Paris’ five-day trek to the African country, where she will visit clinics and schools, will be filmed with the hopes of selling it as a reality show titled The Philanthropist, which would follow other stars’ on their own altruistic missions, and the 26-year-old can hardly wait for the world to see her do-gooder efforts.

“I love having everything documented,” Paris tells Newsweek. “It shows people what everyday life is like for me, how hard I work. There are a lot of misconceptions about me.”

Adds Scott Lazerson, Playing for Good’s founder, the heiress is “using her celebrity and the cameras that follow her for the good of humanity.”

Plans for the trip, which will take place next month, came into fruition as a result of the blonde’s much-documented jail stint in June, which she says changed her and gave her time to “reflect” and think about others besides herself.

“Before, my life was about having fun, going to parties,” Paris says. “But when I had time to reflect, I felt empty inside. I want to leave a mark on the world.”

Paris Hilton has been talking the do-gooder talk ever since her summer prison stint, but with a trip to Rwanda in the works, the socialite is ready to start walking the walk.

26-year-old Hilton tells Newsweek, “Before, my life was about having fun, going to parties — it was a fantasy. But when I had time to reflect, I felt empty inside. I want to leave a mark on the world.”

Apparently, the heiress doesn’t consider popularizing pets as accessories, the phrase “that’s hot,” and night vision camera work to be “leaving a mark.”

So, she tells the magazine, she’s heading to Rwanda next month with a children’s charity, Playing for Good. She says of the trip, “I’m scared, yeah. I’ve heard it’s really dangerous. I’ve never been on a trip like this before.”

Of course, like most everything else in Hilton’s life, the Rwanda visit will be filmed. She explains to Newsweek “I love having everything documented. It shows people what everyday life is like for me, how hard I work.”

And, umm….it’ll show the world what conditions are like in Rwanda, too.

But back to Paris, she clarifies for Newsweek that most of the guys she’s seen with are just friends. “I’ve been linked to so many guys, but there’s nothing romantic going on at all. I get along better with guys than girls. I trust them more. They don’t get all girly and mean. Girls have drama.”

It’s not the typical sort of hot spot she’s used to, but Paris Hilton says that she’s planning to hit the road to Rwanda.

Apparently making good on her post-jail promise to help others, the socialite, 26, tells E! Online about her African ambitions, “I’ll be going in November, after I get back from filming my movie. There’s so much need in that area, and I feel like if I go, it will bring more attention to what people can do to help.”

Though a trouble spot of notorious proportions – an infamous 1994 genocide in Rwanda claimed about a million lives (in a nation of 9 million) – the country’s multitude of problems doesn’t seem to worry Hilton, who vows to pay calls upon a variety of beleaguered regions.

“I want to visit more countries where poverty and children’s issues are a big concern,” she says. “I know there’s a lot of good I can do just by getting involved and bringing attention to these issues.”

Hilton reportedly will visit Rwanda at the invitation of Scott Lazerson, whose year-old Playing for Good charity assists celebrities and high-profile business personalities in getting involved with organizations that benefit those in need.

Hilton’s Rwanda trip will also cap a busy September, during which she’s been in Toronto filming her upcoming movie Repo! The Genetic Opera, partying at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas and hitting a slew of Emmy parties in Los Angeles.

The unattached Hilton, who recently has been seen with Entourage star Adrian Grenier, insists that the actor is not a romantic interest.

All this week she’s been spotted with Alex Vaggo, a model-esque Swede.

Looks like Paris Hilton has a new fall accessory — and instead of some high-end boutique on Robertson Blvd., she might as well have picked this one up at Ikea!

His name is Alex Vaggo, and despite the aristocratic good looks, the 22-year-old is no Mr. Moneybags. In fact, according to a report in the New York Post’s Page Six, Alex was staying at a low-rent Hollywood hostel when he met the Simple Life starlet, who has taken such a shine to the stud that she brought him along with her to the Big Apple, where Ms. Hilton attended the AmFar Rocks at charity event at the historic Puck Building.

And while Paris walked the red carpet alone, OK! spied Alex slinking in minutes later to spend the night by her side in the VIP area. Afterward, the twosome popped into nightclub Butter before finishing the evening at Runway. The new couple enjoyed the sounds of DJ Chachi, staying at Runway until well after closing time.

“They spent the entire night dancing,” one clubgoing witness reveals to OK!. “When the DJ played Paris’ song, she jumped on the banquette and started dancing.”

Let’s see if this could-be-a-model ends up a keeper for Paris.

Though Paris Hilton has declared that her Simple Life costar Nicole Richie is bound to be “the best mom ever,” the hotel heiress won’t be having children of her own anytime soon.

“Someone just said that I’m adopting four blonde babies,” Hilton, 26, told PEOPLE at Friday’s Kate Somerville White Room Emmy suite in West Hollywood. “That’s retarded. No, I’m not.”

Asked if she’d want to adopt, Hilton said, “Maybe, but I want to have my own children.”

The unattached Hilton, who in recent weeks has been seen with Entourage star Adrian Grenier, 31, insists that the actor is not a romantic interest.

“Totally just friends,” says Hilton. “We met a couple years ago [and] we’ve stayed friends. He’s been like kind of a mentor to me, teaching me about the environment and what I can do.”

She adds, “I think it’s cool to talk to someone in L.A. who has more to talk about than all this artificial crap people talk about. It’s nice to talk to someone who’s real.”

Hilton has had a real busy September, filming her upcoming movie Repo! The Genetic Opera in Toronto, partying at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas and returning to Los Angeles for this weekend’s heavy round of Emmy parties.

Having previously starred in 2005′s horror remake House of Wax, Hilton also says she’s stepping up her acting and working with acting coach Ivana Chubbuck.

“This is my first time that I’ve actually taken it seriously. Before, I was just doing it for fun, not really paying attention – not even studying my lines. But this time, I’m serious about it,” she says.

“I really tried hard to get this role. I rehearsed. I was the best at the audition. I got this part because I deserved it, and I’m going to make sure I do the best job ever.”

Kathy Hilton has had a tough summer of mothering, with daughter Paris in and out and back in jail. Now the beleaguered blonde tells German newspaper Die Wielt that she’s tired of the media’s misconceptions about her famous progeny. Read on for excerpts:

On Paris’ 23-day Jail Sentence:
“Yes, it was a powerful warning for all of us. You simply don’t get behind the wheel when you have even had just a bit to drink. That is totally irresponsible. I agree with that. I do criticize how Paris’ case was handled though. That was not about the law, the prosecutor even admitted that. His own wife drove twice without a license and even smashed up a car. No, of 2000 cases that were like Paris’ no-one was punished like she was.”

On her Daughter’s Post-Jail Decision to Attend a Party at the Playboy Mansion:
“It was a costume party, and for a charity. My God! Hugh Hefner is so harmless. I don’t even know if he was there. He often shows up at his parties for a photo and then goes.”

On the myth of Paris’ Privileged Upbringing:
“When Paris disobeyed us, we would first confiscate her mobile phone – practically her life. Second time it would be disconnected, for a month or so. Mothers are mothers, annoying. Perhaps I was too strict with Paris. But she drove me crazy for two years. We lived in a hotel then. In the evenings she would lay a doll under her bedclothes and put on a wig to steal out of the house. She was cheeky but never spoiled like it’s always written – constant room service and credit card at ten years old, that is sick. But we never sued and so this myth grew larger and larger.”

On Her Parenting Style:
“I am very strict. I call my daughter up and say, ‘That is enough now, stop, I don’t want to hear any more. You better stay home.’ Of course I worry. That is why I nag just like all mothers -’Don’t sleep with an open window with wet hair! Don’t drive so fast, leave your phone on so we can reach you.’ And always also, ‘Did you hear me?’ No, I am anything but an easy mother.”

On Paris’ Work Ethic:
“Paris works so hard. I always say, Paris, you also have to stop now and again and smell the roses.
