Paris Hilton disappointed her handlers — but made the day of thousands of pale, sweaty-palmed teenage boys — when she appeared at the Electronic Entertainment Expo conference in Los Angeles yesterday to support her new video game, “Paris Hilton’s Jewel Jam.”

“Hi. My dog Tinkerbell is smarter than I am.”

According to reports, Hilton arrived late, greeted the crowd, and then said, “I’m really excited to have my new video game, ‘Diamondquest.’”

Hilton’s business partners in the game launch would not comment for the record, though one anonymous game executive did reveal that he was impressed that Paris “even remembered she had a video game at all” and “was willing to forgo her monthly Herpes treatment in order to be here.”
