Shocking Paris Hilton news to pass along today … the overexposed heiress was spotted shopping in SoCal for something so surprisingly out of character that the mere sight of her latest shopping excursion left me slack-jawed and stunned. Paris Hilton was caught shopping … at a book store!

What’s even more shocking is that Paris went shopping at one of the best book stores in LA — Book Soup on Sunset Blvd. At first, Paris was seen perusing a book titled The 48 Laws of Power … here is a book description:

Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this piercing work distills three thousand years of the history of power in to forty-eight well explicated laws. As attention–grabbing in its design as it is in its content, this bold volume outlines the laws of power in their unvarnished essence, synthesizing the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun-tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, and other great thinkers. Some laws teach the need for prudence (”Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), the virtue of stealth (”Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions”), and many demand the total absence of mercy (”Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”), but like it or not, all have applications in real life. Illustrated through the tactics of Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissinger, P. T. Barnum, and other famous figures who have wielded–or been victimized by–power, these laws will fascinate any reader interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control.

But once Paris discovered that there were NO PICTURES in this book, she decided to pick up a pretty and oversized photo book instead … then she sped away in her fugly ass pink Bentley. The thought of Paris Hilton actually reading a book — any book — just hurts my head. Paris Hilton may be famous for doing very outrageous things … but this has to take the cake.

It’s been about a hot minute since last we checked in on Paris Hilton and Doug Reinhardt who miraculously got back together earlier this Summer after breaking up after a spat a SoCal nightclub in the Spring. When last we saw Pug Dilton here on the blog, they were quietly vacationing in the tropics and have, also miraculously, been keeping a semi-low profile. BUT, Pug Dilton surfaced publicly this weekend in Venice, Italy to make an appearance on the red carpet at the 66th Annual Venice International Film Festival for the premiere of The Bad Lieutenant … behold:

From what I understand, Pug Dilton were only in Venice for a short while … they did some sightseeing and then attended this premiere and are now on their way back home to LA. It’s curious that they would fly all the way to Venice for just one premiere, particularly since a cursory check at IMDB shows that Paris has nothing at all to do with the film. No matter, I’m just happy to see that Pug Dilton are still happily attached to one another … which means the world is safe for every one else who will be spared from either Paris or Doug’s communicable love.

Paris Hilton, actress extraordinaire, has made her way to Vancouver, BC (which has become a veritable mecca of celebs these days) to begin production on her guest spot on an upcoming episode of The CW show Supernatural. Immediately upon arrival, and after she was mobbed by a plethora of ardent fans, Paris whipped out her Supernatural script and began furiously prepping for her role:

LOL … how much do you wanna bet this is less a matter of Paris Hilton’s overriding work ethic and more a matter of this being the first time she’s ever laid eyes on her lines of script? It’s only marginally hilarious how she made sure that the paps got a great shot of her actually reading the script, as if to say to the world, Look, World, I can read! With all the cool Twilight kids and Zac Efron roaming the streets of Vancouver these days, I suspect we’ll be seeing Paris doing some roaming of her own. Even tho she may be Tardy to the Party, my guess is that she’ll throw herself into the mix in no time.

Paris Hilton posted a couple of tweets on her official Twitter profile over the weekend confessing that she snuck off to a vacation destination in Tahiti but she failed to mention that she snuck off to said locale with her on-again boyfriend Doug Reinhardt (you may recall we learned a couple of weeks ago that Pug Dilton have gotten back together). Here is a photo snapped of the happy couple trying to be all incognito while on holiday this weekend (clearly, if they are vacationing together, they are truly back on again) along with her tweets:

Love Wadigi Island, had the most incredible stay. It is true Paradise, so beautiful and private. It’s the perfect place to vacation. LOVE!!

Then, as a service to her fans, she tweets info on how YOU too can enjoy the tropical holiday getaway that she enjoyed:

For reservations to Wadigi Island – Contact Tracy @ WadigiIsland@Connect.com.Fiji Check it out – www.Wadigi.com What a Magical Island! :)

I believe this is the first time we’ve seen Pug Dilton together in a photo since they broke up earlier this year. I wonder where else they have been sneaking off to together … HMMMM.

I’ve got great news for those of you who are still mourning the death of Pug Dilton. According to US Weekly magazine, Paris Hilton and Doug Reinhardt, who broke up in June, are back together again and IN LURVE!

Less than two months after splitting, Paris Hilton and Doug Reinhardt are back together, Usmagazine.com has confirmed. “They are definitely happy again,” a source close to the couple — who called it quits in June after four months of dating — tells Us. A rep for Reinhardt has no comment. On Monday, Reinhardt, 23, posted on Twitter: “What an amazing weekend with my beautiful girlfriend. I love her so much!” The day before that, he wrote: “Laying in bed watching SportsCenter with my girl.”

You may recall that we heard that Paris went begging back to Doug in the hopes that he would take her back … not long after she hooked up with soccer stud Cristiano Ronaldo after her break-up with Doug. Who knows, mebbe Pug Dilton have been back together for longer than we realized? I have to say, this is amazing news!! A communicable love like the one that Pug Dilton shares should not be inflicted on anyone else! They deserve each other and I truly hope they make it work and stay together forever!! Happy Day!! Pug Dilton lives again!!!

Okay … sometimes LMAO doesn’t really express how funny something is so I guess I’ll just have to explain. Paris Hilton, and her trademark wonky eye, are featured in a new online ad campaign for Viruxo Anti-Viral Support medication which is marketed to herpes sufferers to offset the effects of the disease. Clearly, it has been determined by the online ad folks at Viruxo that Paris Hilton (or a lookalike who looks A LOT like her) would be the PERFECT spokesmodel. Yes, folks, Paris is featured in a herpes ad. The campaign shows up on sites like Facebook and one assumes the ads were created without her authorization but … the shit is funny as hell nonetheless … behold:

Suffering with complications from the Herpes virus is devastating but not with VIRUXO. VIRUXO is the most effective immune support supplement WITHOUT a prescription! This incredible product keeps your immune system strong keeping most types of Herpes virus in check. This product has been proven effective against Herpes Sores (HSV-1, HSV-2).

100% GUARANTEED RESULTS If you don’t experience drastically reduced outbreaks with Viruxo or you are not satisfied for any reason with Viruxo, just return the bottle for a complete refund. Remember, with our guarantee, if your outbreaks aren’t greatly reduced, you get your money back.

No word on if Paris Hilton will personally come to your home to deliver your refunded money but that might be an added bonus for trying the stuff! Or … mebbe not. Methinks the folks at Viruxo will be hearing from Paris Hilton’s lawyers shortly about this viral campaign ;) In the mean time, I’ll be over here LMAOing.

Paris Hilton, who is very fond of sheltering a vast menagerie of pets from various species of animal, has added a new addition to her collection … and then immediately threw it into a bag so she could show it off in public. Here are a couple pics of Paris’s new pussy … cat:

Without going into the fact that Paris Hilton prolly has way too many pets to take care of them all properly, I will say that this little kitty is really very cute. And, in all honesty, Paris looks pretty nice herself. I’m sure I have no idea what her pet count is up to these days but I do hope that she will take care of this little kitten in the manner it deserves to be treated. Well, I’ve got my fingers crossed at least.
