Paris Hilton slams paparazzi for Ronaldo rumours

Paris has lashed out at the media for a string of stories linking her to soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo.

London, June 25: Socialite heiress Paris Hilton has lashed out at the media for a string of stories linking her to soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, and insisted she wants the romance rumours to end once and for all.

The occassional actress-singer ended her six-month romance with basketball player and actor Doug Reinhardt earlier this month and shortly after news of the split broke, she was photographed getting close to Ronaldo in a Los Angeles nightclub. The socialite has been dogged by rumours of a romance with the sportsman ever since, despite Hitlon`s insistence that they are "just friends". And now she has taken aim at the press, accusing reporters of making up "vicious stories" about her lovelife, reports dailystar.co.uk. "I`m really sick of reporters not only making up stories, but also inventing their own quotes that I never even said. It`s ridiculous. They have no credibility. They make up vicious stories, and even though they are so far from the truth, it`s still hurtful," she posted on her Twitter.com page. "They even invent relationships, if I even talk to a guy as a friend, they blow it so out of proportion and act like we are dating. So lame...Sorry for the venting, I`m just sick of all these stupid rumours. I`m trying to focus on my life and work and don`t need the extra stress. Plus, I want you all to know the truth. Don`t believe what you read, about 90 percent of it is pure fiction," she added. IANS
