Smashing Pumpkins have revealed how infamous heiress Paris Hilton appeared on the sleeve of new album Zeitgeist.
Pictures of Hilton appear on the inside cover of the reunited Pumpkins' first new album since 2000.
Frontman Billy Corgan said he took the photos of Hilton, who he had met previously.
He told MTV News: "The original idea was we were gonna see if Lindsay [Lohan], Britney [Spears], and Paris would all shoot...[but] Paris I knew personally and hung out with her a few times, and so I asked her...and God bless her, she came, she showed up at 10am on a Sunday morning, sat in the chair, got made up, and [I] shot her."
Smashing Pumpkins, who are currently touring in the U.S., will return to the U.K. for a one off date at Carling Academy in Glasgow, Scotland on August 22, followed by a headline slot at the Carling Weekend: Reading & Leeds festivals in England over the weekend of August 24-26.
