Paris Is Taking Over Lindsay's New Year's Eve Gig

Paris Hilton has replaced former pal Lindsay Lohan as Las Vegas nightclub LAX's New Year's Eve good time girl - for a whopping $1 million. The socialite will end a tough year, which saw her spending time behind bars, and ring in 2008 with sister Nicky.

One insider tells In Touch, "Paris is receiving the biggest payday ever for a one-night appearance in Vegas. Nobody draws a crowd like she does."

Lohan was initially billed to host the LAX party, but she pulled out earlier this week citing post-rehab sobriety concerns.

You know why they release this information 2 months early don't you? So those going to the bash can get their Paris vaccinations ahead of time. Nobody wants to end up with the P.H. herpes strain.
