Barbie would be proud: Wearing big white-rimmed sunglasses, Paris Hilton parks her pink Bentley and heads inside her LA mansion clutching her tiny pet dogs


She is often compared to the doll with her long blonde hair, slim figure, extensive wardrobe and her love of pink.

And if we ever suspected that Paris Hilton secretly wanted to be Barbie, then this pictures are all the proof we needed.

The hotel heiress was snapped arriving back at her Beverly Hills home and looked every inch like the little girl's doll with her long blonde hair, bling and bright pink car.

Paris, who turns 30 next month, returned from a day out in Los Angeles, clutching her pet Chihuahuas Peter Pan and Tinkerbell.

She wore skinny blue jeans - ripped on purpose, naturally - towering platform heels, huge white-rimmed sunglasses and a grey top held together with a big black belt.

She'd even blinged up Tinkerbell who wore a pin-striped top and a diamante collar.

But it was the pink Bentley Continental GT. that really stood out as the ultimate Barbie accessory.

Paris treated herself to the $200,000 (£135,000) vehicle as a Christmas present in 2008.

The cherry blossom pink is also on the sheet metal, grille, hubcaps and most of the interior while her initials in diamonds - pink, of course, adorn the seats and the bonnet.


She could be sold in a box: Paris is the spitting image of the iconic little girls' doll as she posed for the cameras at the NBC press party tour in Pasadena on Thursday


Paris looked even more like her plastic idol last Thursday when she attended the NBC Universal 2011 Winter TCA Press Tour All-Star Party in Pasadena, California.

Her long, platinum blonde hair cascaded around her heavily made-up face as she posed for the cameras on arrival.

She was at the event to promote her new reality TV show, The World According To Paris, which airs in the spring.

She will star in the show, which will follow her life around the clock, alongside her mother Kathy and her friend, Charlie Sheen's estranged wife Brooke Mueller.

Paris told the NBC event: '"The World According to Paris" is all about my life, all about my friends and everything crazy that happens, so I’m very excited and I cannot wait.'

She also spoke about her boyfriend Cy Waits and said: 'I’m so happy, he’s an amazing man, I feel very lucky.'

Who will win? Miss Nebraska, Teresa Scanlan, left, followed by Miss Nevada Cris Crotz and Miss New Hampshire, Krystal Lee Muccioli walk in the Show Us Your Shoes parade as part of this week's Miss America festivities


You might think the Miss America contestants would spend the night before their big day anxiously rehearsing their lines and practising their walks.

Instead the girls took part in a quirky parade that has become an integral part of the pageant, parading down the Las Vegas Strip ahead of tonight's nationally televised pageant.

Dressed to represent their home states, the 53 contestants were taking part in the traditional shoe parade.

The event was a nod to the pageant's beginnings in Atlantic City, New Jersey, when an annual procession on the boardwalk spawned a tradition.

back then in the 1920s spectators would shout at contestants riding past in open-topped cars, asking them to show their shoes.

They hoped to embarrass the women, because they wore elaborate dresses but casual shoes since nobody would see their feet.

The girls eventually responded by displaying decorated footwear, and shoes eventually became the highlight of their outfits.

In Las Vegas, the girls held their handcrafted shoes aloft for a crowd of about 3,500.
Many shoes this year would have been unwearable as decorated.

Dressed as Marilyn Monroe, 19-year-old Miss California Arianna Afsar showed off a high heel decorated as the famed Hollywood sign, then belted out: Happy birthday, Miss America, to celebrate the pageant's 90th birthday.

'My shoe represents the glitz and glam of Hollywood, and I'd like to thank my mom for spending so much time to make this shoe,' Afsar told the crowd.


Hometown girls: Miss Delaware Kayla Martell and Miss Louisiana Kelsi Crain strut their stuff


Miss Connecticut Brittany Decker, 21, displayed a high heel with a basketball hoop and ESPN written on the backboard in homage to the University of Connecticut and the home of the cable sports network.

While 24-year-old Miss Alaska Abby Hancock held a high heel turned Christmas sleigh, telling master of ceremonies Robin Leach: 'Santa lives in Alaska.'

Miss Louisiana Kelsi Crain, 20, said she thought about going with a New Orleans Saints theme but was happy she stuck with Mardi Gras.

'We've coined the phrase "Bon temps rouler" for "Let the good times roll,"' she said.

'Now the Louisiana delegation is just here to share a little taste of what a Mardi Gras celebration is like.'


Only in Vegas: the girls paraded down the Strip, as a crowd of holidaymakers gathered to watch


Crain, a kinesiology student from the University of Louisiana-Monroe, said she was at first surprised when she learned the pageant queens would be showing the shoes instead of wearing them..

'We had to order two pairs of shoes, one that we could wear and then one that we had to decorate, so now I just have a spare shoe sitting at home,' she said.

The Miss America pageant takes place tonight in Las Vegas. It is screened on ABC at 9pm EST.

Undignified exit: Una Healy emerged from Frankie Sanford's birthday party at China Whites looking worse for wear and attempted to give Vanessa a kiss


At 29-years-old she is the oldest member of The Saturdays and she should know better.
But Una Healey seemed to be the ringleader last night and was looking extremely worse for wear as she emerged from Frankie Sandford’s birthday party at Chinawhite nightclub last night.

Dressed in a short black strapless dress with an embellished neckline, the Irish singer couldn’t keep her footing as she left the London hot spot.

The effects of the night were clearly visible as Una lost her battle with gravity and fell back right on to her bottom on the floor.

Una managed to push herself back up off the entrance rug and attempted to keep her balance in her sky-high black heels.

Luckily her trusty boyfriend, Ben Foden was on hand to help his lady as she staggered out of the club and managed to negotiate her entry into the taxi, where band mate Vanessa was waiting.


Support: Una was helped out of the club by boyfriend Ben Foden and the singer steadied herself on him


Helping hand: Ben supported an unsteady Una as she made her way out of the club and into a taxi home


The 21-year-old accepted Una into her open arms and pulled her into the taxi steadying the singer.

And it seemed that Una was eager to thank Vanessa in her own special way, with a big kiss.

Miss Healy, whose fake eyelashes appeared to be slipping from her eyelid, grabbed Vanessa’s head and pulled it towards her own face and Vanessa giggled at her bandmate’s sudden show of affection.


Pick yourself back up: Una manages to find her balance and got up off the floor before her boyfriend came to her rescue


The singer emerged looking relatively fresh-faced this morning as her and the other band mates headed to rehearsals.

And it wasn’t just Una who appeared to have a good night last night and the birthday girl appeared to be in high spirits too.

Frankie, who turned 22 yesterday was looking stunning in a printed nude and purple shift dress teamed with a pair of nude open-toe patent heels.



Birthday Girl: The Saturdays were out celebrating Frankie Sandford's 22nd Birthday at London hotspot Chinawhite


High spirits: Frankie seemed to have had a good night and she laughed and joked with her friends in the taxi on her way home


As she left the London club, a popular haunt for The Saturdays girls she giggled with a group of girlfriends in the taxi heading for home.

There was no sign of new boyfriend Manchester City footballer Wayne Bridge who is currently on loan with West Ham United.

Frankie was also joined by Rochelle Wiseman, who opted for a cut-out print prom dress which she teamed with a flash of bright red lipstick and a nude handbag.


Party time: The girls arrived looking lovely with Rochelle in a cut-out print baby doll dress and Vanessa in a ruched grey outfit with black shoe boots


Ready for a good time: Una arrived at the party with her boyfriend Ben Foden and the girls were joined by JLS member JB who helped to celebrate Frankie's birthday


Mollie King explained her absence on Twitter and said: ‘So sad I can't be at Frankie's tonight! Busted my knee in tour rehearsals so have to stay home and rest! Love u Frankster!!’

The girls have been busy rehearsing for their upcoming tour which kicks off in Liverpool on February 15.

Jonathan JB Gill from boyband JLS was also in attendance and joined in with the birthday celebrations.

But there was one Saturday who couldn’t join in on the raucous celebrations because of an injury sustained during tour rehearsals earlier in the day.

With her Hermes Birkin bag on one arm and footballer husband Steven on the other, Alex Gerrard is the epitome of a WAG.

But rarely is a footballer’s girlfriend or wife spied smoking a cigarette so it came as a surprise to see Alex indulging in a cheeky puff in London yesterday.

As the couple arrived at their hotel and headed inside it was only a few minutes before Alex crept back onto the pavement for a nicotine fix.

The 28-year-old model was looked and primped and preened to perfection in a pair of grey skinny jeans, a skull printed T-shirt, black jacket a black suede ankle boots.

But she seemed eager to get her cigarette hit and was prepared to stand alone on the pavement outside the hotel in the cold.

And although most footballers leave the smoking to their others halves, Wayne Rooney was spotted smoking after a night out in Manchester's Panacea bar in the summer last year.

Alex and Steven were enjoying a quick trip to the capital ahead of Liverpool’s clash with Everton tomorrow.
