Hilton slams Mother Teresa rumours

Hotel heiress Paris Hilton has slammed media reports she will play Mother Teresa in an upcoming film, insisting that the two look nothing alike.

Indian film-maker T Rajeevnath has said the 25-year-old socialite is on his short list of actresses to play the Nobel Prize winner.

The director believes the two share a "facial resemblance" and claims to be meeting with the Hilton later this month about the role.

Speaking about the rumour, Hilton says: "I heard that. I don't think we look alike."

But the heiress insists she is an admirer of the late nun: "I love Mother Teresa."
