Paris Hilton will be driving this Spyker C8 Spyder in the Bullrun Montreal-to-Key-West party/road rally/reality TV show. No word on who will co-drive. Probably not Nicole Richie.

MONTREAL, Quebec — The Real Bullrun USA 2007, part road rally and part international reality-TV show, has a new contestant: Paris Hilton. The darling of blogs and entertainment pages worldwide, Hilton has been issued a Spyker C8 Spyder in which she will participate in the Montreal-to-Key-West weeklong event.

The participants in the Real Bullrun USA event will leave the Montreal Ritz-Carlton on the morning of May 12 and will not learn the subsequent driving itinerary until the morning of each day's driving. The event concludes on May 18. Entrance fee is $17,500 unless, like Paris Hilton, you are an invited participant or are selected by the TV producers to be in the cast of the reality series.

Bullrun will be broadcast in 52 countries, including on Spike TV in the United States. The organizers say it will involve "100 cars, celebrities and a party in every city every night."

Proving it is also a competition of sorts, there will be $200,000 given away as a prize. To find out more, visit the Bullrun Web site.

What this means to you: Apparently Paris Hilton gets 8,640 more minutes of fame with her participation in the Bullrun.

Whenever I hear the name Paris Hilton, I feel like painting a room, and then sitting down with a loaf of dry french bread and a glass of water to watch it dry. She's probably the least interesting person I've ever heard of.

That makes one less Spyker out there.

She is guaranteed to wrap that car around something!

That's exactly what I was thinking! I hope the advertising they get with this little stunt pays more than the cost of the car she's gonna wreck.

I MAY be driving in BullRun. I will find out in a couple days....

I'm also placing bets that she won't be finishing the race either. Isn't her license suspended or something since she's been pulled over a few times?

Awesome, let us know

I agree with ff_
And if you see Paris, can you this for us?
She couldn't handle the motorcycle at one of the red carpet event(?) but the bullrun???

I normally don't "hate" anyone, but she is an exception

This might come off a little mean, but i hope after this race "she will never be behind the wheel of any car again".......I'll leave that to interpretation.

UberNoob

she doesnt even know how to put gas in her car....
is she going to hire like 3 chase cars to give her the luxury she needs?

anyways, spyker is a perfect accessory for her, except for the manual transmission

Some pics of her in the Spyker

i'm going to be a contrarian here and say that while the cameras are NOT on her ... she'll be fine. i don't think shes going to crash, and i think she actually does know how to put gas in her car (if not, i'm sure shes hired people to go along w. her and do that sort of thing). however, for publicity and to re-affirm the image shes built for herself, she will do dumb things when the cameras ARE on.

Paris will be in handcuffs.

After viewing Seize's pictures I think we see the answer.

My money is on her not actually driving and just being a passenger as a "gimmick"

That makes sense.. A blabbing blonde crash test dummy.. Perfect part for Paris
