Via InTouch Online, news is that the Smashing Pumpkins, formerly the coolest band on the planet, has just gotten 50% less cool by having Paris Hilton on the CD cover of their new single, “Tarantula”. This single was released in the UK, and shows Paris Hilton (thumbnail to your left, a bigger version below) holding a black berry and dressed in the costume of a 19th-century saloon hussy. Stereotyping, guys? Oh, Smashing Pumpkins, is this what it’s come to? How sad. “Tarantula” is the first song by The Smashing Pumpkins of their latest album “Zeitgeist”, their first album as a group since their break-up in 2000.
