Paris Hilton wants to warn young girls from making "humiliating" sex tapes. The blonde socialite was devastated when X-rated footage of her and ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon surfaced in 2003 and has vowed to stop other girls from agreeing to film themselves engaging in sex acts to please their lovers. She said: "I want young girls to never put themselves in that situation I was in. Don't ever let someone talk you into doing something you don't want to do." She added: "I was humiliated, embarrassed and in shock that it happened. It wasn't my fault, it was something that someone did to me, so I've just learned to be a strong woman and nothing can hurt me at this point. "It was definitely very painful. When you trust someone and love someone - for them to do that to you, it's really hard. It's something that bothers me everyday." The 28-year-old hotel heiress - who receives a percentage of profits from the footage, which was eventuall...

Paris Hilton has revealed that she and boyfriend Benji Madden fell for each other before his split from his Australian fiancee Sophie Monk. The Hollywood heiress made the surprise admission during an exclusive interview with The Sunday Telegraph yesterday in Los Angeles. Hilton, 27, said she and the Good Charlotte rocker fell in love shortly after the January 11 birth of Harlow Richie-Madden, the daughter of her best friend Nicole Richie and Madden's twin brother Joel. "Ever since Harlow was born I was over playing with her and visiting Nicole and Joel - and we just fell in love right away,'' Hilton said yesterday. "We've been friends for seven years and he said he always had a big crush on me and when I finally became single it was great that we got together - it was the best.'' Hilton revealed that the couple had been together for "like 8 months'', meaning from mid-February. Monk's publicist announced on February 12 that she and Madd...

Paris Hilton has recorded a gushing interview with the talk-show host claiming she and relatively new boyfriend Benji Madden are planning to marry. Urgh. The blonde bombshell dropped the clanger, with Madden - who only recently was set to wed Monk - giving the idea the thumbs up. Hilton waxed lyrical about what a great couple they were, while flashing his initials in bling on her ring finger. Meanwhile, Paris Hilton has swapped partying for Monopoly. The Simple Life star, who is currently dating Good Charlotte rocker Benji Madden, prefers quiet nights at home preparing homemade food and playing the property board game with her friends. She said: "When I was younger I loved to go out, but now that I'm in a really great relationship it's so much more fun to stay at home. We don't really like to go out. We have game night where friends come over and play Monopoly. "I love to cook for Benji, I cook great lasagne. I've grown up a lot and I'm at peace. He has ch...

There are three things guaranteed to sell a story in the world of celebrity gossip: birth, death and incarceration. This year's hot list of limelight hogs queued up to face arrest ( Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Nicole Richie, Amy Winehouse), get knocked up or adopt ( Brangelina, Cate Blanchett) encounter the Grim Reaper (Anna Nicole Smith) or bounce back from a close brush ( Kylie Minogue). One thing that rarely sets tongues wagging are high achievers - with the exception of Blanchett, who reprised her queenly role in Elizabeth: The Golden Age and is now on the throne of the Sydney Theatre Company, and Big Brother reject Krystal Forscutt, now queen of the lads' mags. Any media studies textbook will tell you that tragedy sells, says University of Sydney media and communications lecturer Marc Brennan. "Additionally, it is often when tragedies impact on celebrities that they are perceived as being all the more human - more like us," he says. Measuring the...

As far as unaccomplished celebrities go, Tila Tequila, the most popular person on MySpace, makes Paris Hilton look like a Nobel laureate. Discovered in a US mall by a Playboy scout eight years ago, Tequila, whose real surname is Nguyen, sits among the new breed of do-it-yourself celebrities who shot to fame using little more than provocative photos and a flashy MySpace page. She boasts around 2.4 million MySpace "friends" and claims she personally attends to 10,000-20,000 friend requests a day, in between posting blogs and making video diaries. "It's like being the most popular girl at school," Nguyen said in an interview. "Everywhere I go I get recognised from all my [MySpace] friends because they feel like we're really friends and they're not just like fans. We have this deeper connection." Named Playboy's first Asian Cyber Girl of the Week, Nguyen, 26, has modelled in all states of undress for Stuff, Maxim, Penthouse and impor...

She is the Paris Hilton of Vietnam. Hoang Thuy Linh has scandalised the conservative nation after a sex video with her boyfriend was posted on the Internet. Unlike Hilton, however, Hoang Thuy Linh, 19, is unlikely to capitalise from the scandal as her show has been cancelled and she has been forced to make a tearful apology. "I made a mistake, a terrible mistake,'' said the doe-eyed teen, who had cultivated a good-girl image. "I apologise to you, my parents, my teachers and my friends.'' Linh, who stars in the Vietnamese television series Vanh Anh Diaries, is now facing consequences due to the sex tape leaked on the internet. Days after the video leaked, Vietnam Television (VTV) dropped the series, according to BBC News. Police have arrested four students accused of posting the video of the teenage TV soap star having sex with her boyfriend. Authorities this week announced the arrests of the four Hanoi men and women, aged between 21 and 25. They would be held ...

Paris Hilton is on a mission to change her image, heading to Rwanda on a trip she hopes will allow her to leave a mark on the world - and possibly create another reality TV show. The 26-year-old a hotel heiress said she was a changed person and vowed to shed her party-girl image after leaving jail where she served three weeks earlier this year for violating probation in a drunken-driving case. "There are a lot of bad people in LA. Before, my life was about having fun, going to parties -- it was a fantasy," Hilton told Newsweek magazine, opting to speak to the news-focused journal rather than a celebrity magazine. "But when I had time to reflect, I felt empty inside. I want to leave a mark on the world." She has acknowledged she has long enjoyed the Hollywood party scene but she said she spent her time in jail reading the Bible and praying to God for strength, deciding to give new meaning to her life by pursuing charity work. Hilton skyrocketed to fame in 2003 after ...

Paris Hilton is not a happy heiress after a weekend appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman, which saw the host harass Hilton over her time in jail. The 26-year-old reality star agreed to appear on the show to promote her new perfume and fashion line, but instead suffered a barrage of questions about her time in jail. After initially greeting Hilton, Letterman asked, "How'd you like your time in jail?" A visibly-uncomfortable Hilton replied, "Not too much." As Letterman continued to question the former jailbird, Hilton grew increasingly annoyed, pouting and looking off-stage for help. "I've moved on with my life so I don't really want to talk about it anymore" Hilton told the host but Letterman would not be dissuaded. "This is where you and I are different. Because this is all I want to talk about," he said. Towards the end of the interview, Hilton told Letterman he was making her sad for coming on the show and "hurting ...

Onetime Baywatch beauty Pamela Anderson and Rick Salomon, a former boyfriend of Paris Hilton, applied for and were granted a marriage license in Las Vegas yesterday, the syndicated TV show Access Hollywood has reported. Representatives for Anderson and Salomon were not immediately available for comment. Earlier this month, Anderson, 40, said on the talk show hosted by comedian Ellen DeGeneres that she was engaged, but declined to identify her fiancee, other than to say he was a poker player, according to Access Hollywood. It would be the third marriage for Anderson, who gained international stardom playing buxom lifeguard C.J. Parker on the TV show "Baywatch." Anderson and her first husband, Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee, with whom she appeared in a widely circulated sex video, divorced in 1998 after three years of marriage and two children. She and ...

She’s dated actors and heirs to million dollar business fortunes. Now, Paris Hilton has pals shocked with her latest squeeze - a pizza delivery boy. Paris got hooked to delivery guy Alex Vaggo after bumping into him in Las Vegas while partying at a nightclub. Since then, it seems the two have been inseparable, with Paris even taking him along to meet her folks in Bel Air. Alex’s pals, who describe him as a ‘shy, laid-back kind of guy’, are also having trouble believing how fast he hooked up with Paris. “He decided to fly to LA for a holiday and spent much of the summer working as a pizza delivery boy to raise extra money. We were amazed to see how quickly he hooked up with Paris,” The Sun quoted pal Richard Ramberg, as saying. “He’s quite a shy, laid-back kind of guy. Paris will probably eat him alive,” Ramberg added.

It appears Paris Hilton’s pockets are about to get a whole lot lighter. Paris has settled her defamation lawsuit with fellow socialite Zeta Graff, according to the Santa Monica County court clerk, although the official paperwork has yet to reach Superior Court. Lawyers for both parties were in a Santa Monica court this morning, and ended up settling the case. And while the court calendar indicated jury selection process is still scheduled to begin on Monday, that presumably will no longer be needed. Details of the settlement are unknown at this time. The attorneys for Paris and Zeta released the following joint statement to Access Hollywood: “Zeta Graff and Paris Hilton are pleased to announce the amicable resolution of the lawsuit between them. Both parties are glad that the matter could be resolved without the time and expense of a trial.

Paris Hilton has sold her Hollywood Hills mansion for $5 million in a quest for — wait for it — privacy. The Spanish-style 1920s manor, featuring four bedrooms and three-a-half bathrooms, sold in just 10 days. It was Hilton's home for three years and was where she famously served 48-hours of house arrest before being sent back to jail. But the sale may prove to have been in vain after two fans harassed Hilton at her Malibu estate. The duo allegedly buzzed Hilton's intercom, repeatedly asking for Paris. The former heiress attempted to disguise her voice as a Spanish maid and temporarily tricked the girls into thinking she wasn't there. But the plan failed when one of her tormentors spied Hilton through the gates. Hilton's neighbours appear to be looking forward to seeing the end of the Paris soap opera. One famous ex-neighbour is Cameron Diaz, who complained about the constant media presence that surrounded the suburb when Hilton was hauled off to prison. “Pa...

Paris Hilton's bust , the subject of recent plastic surgery speculation, has been cleared of any whiff of inauthenticity by recent beach photos. Rumours of surgery began with the publication of pictures of the ex-con heiress at a party with a sizeable cleavage. The rumours received a boost with publication of photos of Hilton on Malibu Beach in a one-piece swimsuit. But photographs of her back in beach mode this weekend show a cleavage more in keeping with Paris's slim build. Hilton fans are wondering if she is employing the old chicken-fillet trick or if she's the first to make use of so-called removable implants. In the past, Hilton has been candid about her desire for a breast augmentation at a young age. "Years ago, I asked my dad for a boob job and he said it would cheapen my image," she has said. The apparent change has led one celebrity plastic surgery website to report that Hilton's breast size "fluctuates more than the Dow Jones...
