Rwanda will have to wait for Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton's trip to the east-central African nation of Rwanda, organized by the Playing for Good Foundation and announced in September as part of the heiress' post jail wow to make her life more meaningful, has been postponed.


Due to the restructuring of the Playing for Good Foundation, the philanthropic trip to Rwanda that the foundation had previously planned with Paris Hilton has been postponed," the organization announced Thursday.

"Paris has been a loyal and gracious supporter of Playing For Good but the foundation has to regrettably reschedule this trip. Playing for Good would like to thank Ms. Hilton for her generosity and her continued support of this initiative and is looking forward to rescheduling the trip with her at a later time."

Paris Hilton announced her plans to visit Rwanda in September saying she wants to spread awareness about the African country which was the scene of genocide in 1994.

"I'll be going in November, after I get back from filming my movie," she said
"There's so much need in that area, and I feel like if I go, it will bring more attention to what people can do to help," said the concerned consummate socialite.

The movie that Paris was referring to was the horror film Repo! The Genetic Opera a clip of which she showed at the at the recent horror themed Scream 2007 awards put together by Spike TV.

The movie plot, set in 2056, runs on an entrepreneur who creates genetically perfect organs for people in need but turns to sinister ways to repose them when the recipient can't afford to pay for the organ.
