Paris says her dating life is not as wild as the tabloids make it out to be.

Paris Hilton planning Rwanda visit - Sept 27 2007
Paris Hilton plans to visit Rwanda as part of her post-jail commitment to use her celebrity status to bring attention to social causes.
"I’ll be going in November, after I get back from filming my movie," she tells E! Online.
"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," Hilton says.
The 26-year-old hotel heiress-actress vowed to use her fame to bring attention to social causes after serving a 23-day jail sentence earlier this year for an alcohol-related reckless driving conviction.
"I want to visit more countries where poverty and children’s issues are a big concern," she says.
"I know there’s a lot of good I can do just by getting involved and bringing attention to these issues."
Hilton co-stars with Paul Sorvino and Alexa Vega in Repo! The Genetic Opera, a horror rock movie about organ harvesting.
Meanwhile, Hilton says she is planning to add eco-friendly touches to her new home in Beverly Hills, California.
"I just bought the house and haven’t been able to work on it yet," she says. "But I intend to."
Paris Splashes Out on New Mansion - Sept 10 2007
Paris Hilton has reportedly splashed out a cool 5.9 million dollars on a plush new pad in Beverly Hills.
People.com reports that the 26-year-old hotel heiress has brought the 7,000 square foot mansion, which sports five bedrooms and five bathrooms, for its private setting.
The house also has a fitness room which the star apparently intends to convert into a shoe closet, her uncle, real estate agent Mauricio Umansky of Hilton & Hyland, said.

However, the Simple Life star has yet to move into her new pad and is currently in Toronto at the city’s annual film festival.
