Fashion guru Valentino Garavani has launched a scathing attack on socialite Paris Hilton, labeling the hotel heiress “vulgar” and “not even pretty.”The Italian fashion designer “shuddered” when New Yorker magazine reporter Michael Specter suggested Hilton may wear a Valentino dress for her forthcoming marriage to Greek shipping heir Paris Latsis.

Valentino, 72, scathes, “No, I don’t like her. She is marrying the son of a friend of mine. They have billions.

“She is vulgar, and she is not even pretty.

“The Hiltons, they have nothing.”

I think they have lots of unresolved issues. Well, and ugly, vulgar daughters…

You really don’t need much else beyond that.

Bless her heart, Paris will do anything to get her name in the paper and her record produced:

Just when Paris Hilton’s engagement to Greek shipping heir Paris Latsis had us all believing that fairytales really can come true, sources say the unregenerated wildchild has given in to her baser instincts and taken up with Scott Storch, the hip-hop superproducer behind her upcoming debut album.

Hilton watchers first noticed the unlikely pairing two weeks ago when Storch squired the heiress to the VMAs�with her devoted fianc� nowhere in sight. “They were holding hands the whole time in Miami and were all over each other,” says one observer. But chatter about the celebutante’s straying ways reached fever pitch at this Saturday’s Play Station Portable fashion show in New York. […]

Storch, 31, spent most of the show backstage with his songbird: “He brought her a bag with a bunch of pink stuff and some shoes,” says another partygoer. “Everyone at the afterparty was talking about them being together. He even led the search effort for her cell phone when she lost it after the show”�proving himself the cool-headed yin to her semi-retarded yang. […]

Asked about Hilton’s latest accessory, her rep, Bob Zimmerman, said coyly, “Paris and Scott are taking advantage of every public opportunity to create buzz for the album he’s producing.” As for Latsis? “They’re still engaged and Paris is still moving forward with the wedding plans.”

What about the other Paris, is he also still moving forward with the wedding plans? Cause we all know it takes two Paris for one white trash wedding…

It looks like Paris Latsis is trying very hard to keep his family in the dark.

Who can blame him?

DON’T hold your breath waiting for the Paris Hilton-Paris Latsis wedding. During the couple’s recent jaunt to Greece, the groom-to-be never even discussed marriage with his father, Grigoris Kasidokostas.

“If he hasn’t discussed this with his own father, how serious could it be?” Kasidokostas asked The Post’s Chris Erikson. “That should tell you the whole story.” […]

What’s more, recent reports that Latsis plunked down $12 million for a Beverly Hills nest for the lovebirds and bought Hilton a $5 million ring are ridiculous, he said.

“All of it is lies,” Kasidokostas declared.

He noted that his son doesn’t have the cash, as the $7.5 billion Latsis family fortune is firmly in control of Latsis’ mother, Mariana, and uncle, Spiro. […]

The father denied his son is the jet-setting playboy depicted in the press: “He’s a very, very good boy… a gentle, down-to-earth boy… not a playboy by any stretch of the imagination. He doesn’t have a lot of experience with women.”

Okay, now THAT I believe!

There’s no way you can get laid in L.A. with a GNR tattoo.

Not. Gonna. Happen.

Is it me or is Star Magazine full of shit?

As the summer holiday season hots up for the world’s jet-setting celebrities, two of America’s most famous heiresses have descended on super-chic St Tropez.

Sizzling siblings Paris and Nicky Hilton made the most of their glamorous escapade, relaxing on the $30,000-per-night yacht Insignia.

Mmm, looks like the Latsis clan prefers lil Latsis charters a yacht than have the Hiltons set foot on one of theirs.

Can’t really blame them.

According to Star Magazine, Paris Hilton and Paris Latsis‘ big fat Greek wedding is off.

That’s right. It appears these two are through. Over. Kaputt.

Wait a minute. Is that a collective sigh I hear?

Sources say that Hilton’s eagerness to marry the 22-year-old shipping heir caused the blow-up. On July 15 � just two weeks into their vacation � the young couple returned to Athens before Hilton, 24, split.

Latsis was distraught, but his relatives were quite relieved.

I bet they were.
