Paris Hilton to Appear on Larry King Wednesday

Paris Hilton has granted CNN's Larry King her first post-jail interview.  The ex-convict will be appearing the full hour live on Wednesday night June 27 at 9 pm ET in what could become a ratings bonanza for the already popular and respected talk show.

Paris Hilton released this statement:

"I am thrilled that Larry King has asked me to appear on his program to discuss my experience in jail, what I have learned, how I have grown and anything else he wants to talk about. Larry King is not only a world-renown journalist, but a true American Icon. It will be an honor to do his show."

A poll on TMZ.com showed that nearly 70% of the respondents agreed Larry King was a good choice, even though one could assume a vast number of TMZ.com readers probably don't event watch Larry King.

Celebrity Betting Odds at Bodog.com at press time had Paris Hilton as a
-500 favorite NOT to be appearing on ABC's The View before the end of 2007.  YES pays $3 for every $1 bet.
