Paris Hilton talks about her new perfume
Paris Hilton has launched her new perfume with a staggering $250,000 advertising campaign.
The hotel heiress oozes sex in a frilly dress and fishnet tights for a series of adverts to promote her latest scent, Can Can.
The name of the fragrance was inspired by a raunchy dance associated with Parisian club Moulin Rouge at the turn of the century.
Paris recently spoke of her love for her perfume, saying:
"I love fragrances - this is my fifth fragrance now. As women, I think it's great just to smell nice. It feels good when people are always complimenting me, and I believe smell is a very signature thing - it is something you're going to remember somebody by."
'The Simple Life' star - who published her autobiography 'Confessions of an Heiress: A Tongue-in-Chic Peek Behind the Pose' in 2004 - also wants to become a respected author.
Paris' literary agent Dan Strone said:
"She is thinking of doing a new book. I don't believe at this time it's going to be a prison diary. I don't think that's the direction she's heading in."
The 26-year-old - who recently spent 23 days behind bars for driving with a suspended licence - has already tried her hand at modelling, acting, singing and fashion designing.

Paris is "totally different from her public image"
Paris Hilton is nothing like the vacuous blonde bimbo she's portrayed as in Europe, according to her new Swedish boyfriend.
Alex Vaggo was a tourist in Los Angeles when he met the socialite at a party in August and he reveals he was taken by her sweet nature and her compassion - as well as her looks.
Vaggo, who is now on the verge of becoming a top model, thanks to his girlfriend's help, says:
"I love that she's a down-to-earth person who cares about real people and real problems in the world. She's totally different from her public image. She's smart, focused and beautiful. I'm very impressed with her."
And Vaggo hopes his romance with Hilton lasts longer than her other flings with heirs and millionaires.
He tells Life & Style magazine:
"It's early, we're still getting to know each other, and I love spending time with her. Anyone would be lucky to be around someone like Paris."

Paris Hilton to sing in a movie
Producers are about to announce that they have cast hotel heiress and ex-con Paris Hilton in Repo! The Genetic Opera, a rock opera/horror film that begins a six-week shoot in Toronto on Sept. 10, canada.com reports.
The movie, based on a successful theatrical production by Terrence Zdunich and Darren Smith, is about an organ failure epidemic in 2056 that forces people to purchase genetically perfect ones from Geneco, a biotech company committed to collecting regular payments.
Director Darren Lynn Bousman recently told MTV:
“The idea is that everybody is buying up organs, and they cannot afford to pay for these organs. Thus, legalized organ repo-men come into the picture. Murder becomes sanctioned by law. So, if you buy a heart and can't afford it, someone can burst through the door and take your heart out… and they don’t get in trouble for it."
Bousman, who made the last two Saw films and the upcoming Saw IV in Toronto, will direct Repo!, in which the dialogue is completely sung.
At a fundraising event in Hollywood on Tuesday night, Hilton declined to reveal specifics but admitted she is in rehearsals for a “very cool and unique project.”
She told E! Online:
“We’re just in the studio. We’re doing dance and singing.”
Paul Sorvino will play Geneco owner Rottismo Largo and Alexa Vega (Spy Kids) has been cast as Shilo, the daughter of repo man Nathan. Tobin Bell, who plays the evil Jigsaw in the Saw movies, also stars.
Sources claim Hilton will play Heather Sweet, the daughter of Largo.

Victoria Beckham snubs Paris Hilton
Victoria Beckham has reportedly turned down Paris Hilton's offer of friendship.
The Spice Girl has just moved to Los Angeles with her soccer star husband David but isn't interested in the hotel heiress' party invitation.
Paris is reported to have said about Victoria, "We could be soulmates." However, Victoria apparently told a friend, "Over my dead body!"
Sources claim Victoria - who counts Tom Cruise and his wife Katie Holmes and Jennifer Lopez among her good friends - believes being associated with Paris could have negative consequences for her.
Victoria - also known as Posh Spice - is keen to establish herself as a major Hollywood player and doesn't want Paris, who recently served time in jail, to interfere with that.
Meanwhile, Victoria's American TV debut has been slated by critics.
The reality show, 'Victoria Beckham: Coming To America,' followed the singer as she prepared to move to Los Angeles after David signed with soccer team Los Angeles Galaxy.
It was aired in the US at the weekend but it failed to win over many reviewers.
Linda Stasi of the New York Post gave it "no stars" and labeled it "an orgy of self-indulgence," while The New York Times' Alessandra Stanley described her as a "rich idiotic It girl."

Paris dropped by her talent agent
Paris Hilton has been dropped by her talent agent, People confirms.
"Paris is no longer a client," says Endeavor agency rep Michael Donkis, who declined to specify a reason for the move.
According to a source, Hilton was dropped last Friday – the day she was ordered back to jail from home confinement. The move was announced in a company-wide email, the source says.
The Beverly Hills-based agency has represented Hilton since 2005, handling her deal for The Simple Life.
Hilton, meanwhile, spent her fourth night in the medical ward of the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in downtown Los Angeles. She is serving out a 23-day minimum sentence for violating probation in an alcohol-related driving case.

Media Gather Outside California Jail
The world's press has converged on the California jail that will house Paris Hilton for her three-week sentence in the hope of capturing the heiress’s arrival.
Photographers, reporters and television crews have staked out positions at three entrances to the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood.
The authorities are being very accommodating to the media and have cordoned off a grassy area outside the jail especially for members of the press.
Some of the prison’s inmates were less welcoming, however. Susannah Johnson, who was released on Saturday after a one-day stay at the jail, said:
"The only advice I could give her when she comes is to shut her mouth and do the time."
Hilton has been ordered to turn herself in by Tuesday to begin her sentence for violating a driving ban but as of Saturday night the socialite had yet to appear.

Paris's Jail Term Cut to 23 Days
Paris Hilton will serve about half of her 45-day jail sentence and will be separated from the general inmate population, authorities said Wednesday.
The hotel heiress will spend about 23 days in a "special needs housing unit" at the Century Regional Detention Center in suburban Lynwood, Los Angeles County sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore said.
Her sentence was shortened after jail officials gave her credit for good behavior, Whitmore said. Officials considered several factors in calculating the credit, including that she appeared for her latest court date, he said.
Hilton will stay in a unit that contains 12 two-person cells reserved for police officers, public officials, celebrities and other high-profile inmates, he said.
Like everyone else in the 2,200-inmate facility, Hilton will get at least an hour outside her cell each day to shower, watch television, participate in outdoor recreation or talk on the telephone, he said.
The 26-year-old socialite was sentenced to jail this month for violating the terms of her probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case. A judge ordered her to report to jail by June 5.
A call to her lawyer, DUI specialist Richard Hutton, was not immediately returned. Her publicist, Elliot Mintz, declined to comment.

Paris Hilton's new home
Paris Hilton has been shunned by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. But she may be welcomed by another high profile politician. Schwarzenegger said that he was too busy for Paris but a sheriff in Arizona says he would love to help Paris out.
Paris Hilton meet Joe Arpaio. He has been dubbed America's toughest sheriff runs an outdoor jail in Arizona dubbed tent city.
It is a stripped down jail where inmates are housed in actual military type tents in downtown Phoenix where the temperatures can easily hit 110 degrees and higher in June and July.
Paris Hilton is scheduled to begin her sentence on June 5th. KTVK Channel 3 is reporting that the heiress to the Hilton Hotel fortune may be headed to that very Maricopa County jail.
Because of some serious overcrowding in Los Angeles, there are concerns that Hilton may not serve all of the 45 days that she has been sentenced to – and she may be shipped to Arizona for her entire sentence.
The television station claims that Arpaio says he's spoken to the chief of jails in Los Angeles offering to house Hilton at Tent City. Arpaio loves publicity and this would be a move he would push for, though it's still unclear if Paris would be able to do he time in Arizona. Inmates at tent city wear old time prison garb, including stripes. They sometimes work on chain gangs picking up trash on the side of the road in sweltering heat.
And according to the Maricopa County Sheriff's department, the Los Angeles County Sheriff is considering the proposal.

Paris dumps her publicist
Paris Hilton has parted ways with her long-time publicist, Elliot Mintz, as a result of the guilty verdict she received in an LA court on Friday.
The 26-year-old was sentenced to 45 days in jail after violating the terms of her probation following a September DUI charge. She was pulled over twice by police earlier this year for driving with a suspended license. During the two-hour hearing at an LA court on Friday, Paris blamed Mintz for her mistake, telling the judge her publicist had told her that her license was only suspended for 30 days and that she could still drive for work-related matters.
But prosecutors disagreed. "This is about the fault of Ms. Hilton," said Deputy City Atty. David A. Bozanich. "She knew [she couldn't drive], and she did it anyway."
Paris, who was shocked by the guilty verdict and left court with a tear-streaked face, is planning to appeal. She was spotted having lunch on Saturday with her parents, Rick and Kathy, who were attempting to console their visibly distressed daughter.
Calls to Mintz for comment were not returned.

Paris Hilton may face jail for violating probation
Paris Hilton may face a three-month prison sentence for violating her probation by driving with a suspended license, a court official said Thursday.
Hilton, heir to the hotel empire that bears her name, was stopped in her car by police in western Los Angeles on February 27. The city prosecutor's office confirmed Thursday she had violated the terms of a probation for drunk driving issued the previous month.
Nick Velasquez, spokesman for the Los Angeles prosecutor said:
"We are confident that we have sufficient evidence that her license was suspended at the time she was driving and that she had knowledge of that suspension."
Hilton, 26, is to appear on April 17 before a judge who will decide whether she receives a jail sentence, he said.
She came to wide public attention in 2003 in a home-made sex video that was posted on the Internet, and has since appeared in television shows and movies.

Britney voted worst celebrity dog owner, Paris comes second
According to two dogs magazine, Britney Spears has the worst dog-parenting skills and Oprah Winfrey is the best celebrity dog owner.
"Britney was the overwhelming choice" for worst celebrity dog owner for 2006, Hilary O'Hagan, editor of The New York Dog and The Hollywood Dog magazines, said in a statement.
"She once had three Chihuahuas ... and never left home without at least one of them on her arm," O'Hagan said. "As soon as she met K-Fed and had kids they (the dogs) disappeared."
Paris Hilton, 2005's "worst" winner, placed second for "treating her dogs like accessories," the magazines said.
Winfrey, who owns five dogs, was voted this year's best celebrity dog owner. The talk-show host replaced 2005 winner Joss Stone, and beat off competition from Tori Spelling, Nicollette Sheridan and Beth Ostrosky, Howard Stern's girlfriend.
Voting took place online over a three-month period. Results weren't scientifically representative of the magazines' readers, and the total number of votes won't be released, O'Hagan said Monday.

Party girl Paris Hilton says she wants to have children soon, The Scoop reports.
The partying heiress says that hanging around with her new best friend, Britney Spears, and Spears' two kids has made her want to reproduce.

Paris Hilton has put her feud with Nicole Richie behind her, saying they are "friends forever now."
The childhood pals mysteriously fell out in January 2005 after a life-long friendship, but they made up after holding a reconciliation dinner in Los Angeles in October, and Hilton insists their reunion is permanent.
"We've been friends for 23 years of our lives and when you've known someone that long she's like a sister. I'm really happy to have her back in my life. I love her to death! We're definitely friends forever now." "She's amazing. Nicole has a great personality, she's beautiful and sweet, and she's fun to hang out with. She's hysterical - she can make me laugh so hard!"

Paris Hilton To Host America’s Cutest Pup
Paris Hilton is going to host a dog show looking for America’s cutest puppy. To enter, dogs have to be between four and eight months old. Tinkerbell is a co-host and therefore disqualified to enter. Paris is reportedly getting paid millions for the show.
Paris, 25, will oversee owners as they parade their precious puppies for US viewers to vote on.
And the job, her biggest TV role so far, will see the mega-rich blonde get her paws on MORE millions.
A source said: “It will be a bit like the new Liza Tarbuck TV show Britain’s Top Dog — except the emphasis will be on cute little dogs rather than daft mutts.
“Contestants from all around the United States will enter their beloved hounds into a national competition to find the best. Viewers will vote for their favourites and Paris will host.”
The show has been commissioned by the W Network in America — and will come to Britain in the future.
Auditions are being held across the States next month.
An advertisement for would-be contestants read: “If you think your puppy is the most adorable puppy in all America, this might be your opportunity to show him or her off.”

Paris thinks she was stupid
Paris Hilton's former love, Rick Salomon made a fortune after releasing X-rated tape 'One Night in Paris' - which features the couple having full and oral sex - after they split. Paris admits she still finds the betrayal difficult to stomach.
She told Britain's Guardian newspaper: "I haven't seen it. He's a pig. He's disgusting. That was the most horrible thing somebody could do to you. I was just very young and I really loved him and I was a stupid little girl. So I've learned a lot from my mistakes."
It was rumoured that Paris was involved in making the tape public to make herself more famous and split the profits.
But Paris has denied the claims, saying: "I didn't receive one dollar. I was going to sue but that meant I'd be in court for a whole year. So I said, 'I've just got to take this as a lesson in life. Don't ever trust anyone again like that, move on, and just forget about it'.'"
After the video became public, Paris started her own reality TV show 'The Simple Life' and launched herself as a brand, now earning over $6 million a year.
