"I’m just focusing on doing a movie right now," she said. "It’s a surprise but I start shooting next month."


New record for Paris? - July 17 2007
She’s only been out of jail a month, but Paris Hilton has said that she’s already working on a new album, having been in meetings with record producer Scott Storch.

"I’ve been working on my new record with Scott for a few weeks," Paris told E! Online.

Scott worked on the socialite’s first album, entitled Paris, released last August, and is also responsible for chart-topping work with acts including Beyonce Knowles, Christina Aguilera, R Kelly, 50 Cent and Dr Dre.

However, sources say that the 26-year-old Simple Life star is determined to make the new album better than her first attempt which was met with criticism and disappointing sales.

"She takes voice lessons several times a week," says an insider close to the star.

"She really works very hard to be taken seriously in the industry and make good music people will enjoy. Of all her projects, her music is the most important to her, and she’s really serious about it."


Paris Tipped for Blockbuster Role - July 9 2007
Paris Hilton has tried her hand at many things, but she has yet to find success in the movies - ending up in a series of straight-to-DVD flops. But that could be about to change...

It appears the recently-jailed heiress has an A-list benefactor in director Brett Ratner. Brett is best known as one of the hardest partiers in Hollywood, but also helmed X-Men: The Last Stand and Red Dragon.

Talking to TMZ.com outside Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills, Brett revealed that he is planning to cast Paris in his next project, although he wouldn’t say what the movie is. When asked if it was X-Men 4, he replied that it was "better than that".

The director is currently in last-minute post-production on Rush Hour 3, which reunited Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker and the success of that could mean another sequel.

However, he has also just signed up to make a biopic of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner. After her own sex-tape scandal, it could be the perfect cinematic big break for Paris.

Image change for Paris? - July 3 2007
Paris Hilton apparently has big plans to re-invent herself following her stint in jail.

The socialite - who spent 23 days behind bars for a probation violation - has pledged to clean up her act by laying off the parties and adopting a more serious style, says Reveal magazine.

"To get things started, Paris has removed all of the negative influences in her home," a pal said. "She’s banned alcohol from her bar, leaving behind only some bottles of fine champagne and wine for special occasions.

"Paris doesn’t want her home to be a party house any more. She’s starting to think about living a more private life."

And it sounds as if the socialite’s short, sparkly numbers will also be a thing of the past.

The source said: "She’s already started shopping online for a more sophisticated and demure look. Her mum Kathy even picked out some beautiful, restrained pieces while Paris was in prison.

"She has replaced all her heavy make-up with a more natural look. And Kathy has been coaching her on how to look, dress and act more of a lady."

Paris’s friend added that the starlet, who has also spoken about her plans to do some charity work, has been enjoying the makeover.
