As if starring in the flop flick “National Lampoon’s Pledge This” wasn’t bad enough, socialite Paris Hilton now has been sued for refusing to promote the film when it was released.

Hilton’s breach of contract cost the producers of the film ”lost revenue and profits,” according to the suit, filed in Miami federal court Tuesday. A call to Hilton’s Los Angeles attorney wasn’t immediately returned. Fort Lauderdale lawyer Michael I. Goldberg, a court-appointed receiver of the film’s production company — The Entertainment Group Fund — filed the suit against Hilton and her company, Paris Hilton Entertainment.

The Entertainment Group Fund is an affiliate of Worldwide Entertainment Group, a one-time concert promoter that now stands accused of fleecing $300 million from investors.

Entertainment Group paid Hilton $1 million to star in “Pledge This,” filmed in South Florida.

Go figure.
