Oh the things we do to perpetuate the publicity of marketers smart enough to realize their hot ads will never run in the first place. It’s only a matter of time before this one’s floating all over the web, released “by mistake.” Perhaps it already has been. We’re talking about a new commercial for burger chain Carl’s Jr. starring Paris Hilton doing her sexy thing as we’ve all seen her do before. Trouble is, she’s just too hot in that Rick Solomon, military green video sort of way and networks are not too happy to air it.

The ad shows plenty of Hilton washing a car with water hoses gushing forth wantonly while the heiress slathers white stuff…um…soap all over the place. Somewhere in the spot, she’s eating a big ass BBQ Six Dollar Burger. It’s all just the next logical step from the company that brought us the Straw Girl and the writhing mechanical bull commercial.
