Barbie girl Paris Hilton treats herself to a £135,000 pink Bentley for Christmas

By Daily Mail Reporter

Throughout her fame, Paris Hilton has often been compared to Barbie thanks to her slim figure, perfect wardrobe, blonde hair and obsession with the colour pink.

So it comes as no surprise the hotel heiress has taken her love of all things rose to the next level with a customised pink Bentley Continental GT.

Rather than ask her family for such a pricey gift, the 27-year-old socialite has bought the $200,000 (£135,000) vehicle as a Christmas present for herself.


The pink car reminded onlookers of the chaffeur-driven pink vehicle owned by Lady Penelope in Thunderbirds.

After buying the luxury car, Hilton drove it to West Coast Customs remodelling firm in Los Angeles, which is famous for customising cars in MTV makeover show Pimp My Ride.


The Simple Life reality star's vehicle was sprayed a specific shade of cherry blossom pink, which was complimented by pink sheetmetal, grille, hubcaps and most of the interior.

After picking the car up last week, Hilton was keen to show it off on a shopping trip in LA yesterday.

Hilton's passenger in her fuschia wheels was the winner of her reality show My New BFF (Best Friend Forever) Brittany Flickinger.


Due to the unusual shade of the vehicle, paparazzi could see Hilton coming a mile away and were all ready and waiting when she pulled up for some retail therapy.

Hilton and Flickinger visited the Intuition store, where they bought hats, sunglasses, boots, dresses and sweaters.

Despite only having the vehicle a week, Hilton will leave her beloved car in LA over the festive holidays.

Hilton is joining her parents Rick and Kathy and siblings Nicky, Barron and Conrad in Aspen, Colorado for Christmas, before jetting to Sydney with her sister for New Year's Eve.

Explaining her reason for customising her car pink, Hilton said: 'I love pink so I met up with Ryan (Friedlinghaus) and brought him this pink clock from the Disney store and got him to make this exact colour and we just designed it all together.

'I love it, its so pretty. I've just always wanted a pink car.

'I think when you're a little girl and you have the Barbie corvette you're like, "I wish I had a car like this one." So I think just being a fan of Barbie for so long.'

Hilton admitted the car is very conspicuous, but she had specially requested tinted windows so paparazzi can't photograph her behind the wheel.

She said: 'This is a car I can't drive ever single day, but I will be driving it a lot. I live in a gated community so I can get in and out without the paparazzi. They've put a protective tint on the windows so no flashes can come through.

Hilton's new car is a welcome distraction from her recent burglary.

A burglar broke into the heiress's LA mansion and stole £1.3million of jewellery in the early hours of Friday morning, while she was attending Christina Aguilera's birthday party.

Hilton said: 'I am devastated. I cannot believe someone broke into my home. They took items that had such sentimental value that no one will ever be able to replace.'

Anyone want to release Paris Hilton's sophomore album

Heads up, record labels: Paris Hilton is on the prowl.
After getting the boot from Warner Bros. earlier this year, the multifaceted heiress is still seeking a record label to release her sophomore album.
"I'm not sure which label I'm doing it with," she told "Entertainment Weekly." "I'm figuring it out right now."
As of now, Hilton's set to release her follow-up album on an independent label - her own.
Hilton's as-yet-untitled disc, which is reportedly scheduled to hit stores later this year, will be put out by Heiress Records, the Warner Bros. sub-label she formed in 2004 to help launch her first musical offering, 2006's "Paris."
Problem is, Heiress and its founder are no longer affiliated with Warner Bros.
The major label backed Hilton's debut album, but has since quietly parted ways with the reality TV star-turned-singer.
And, although the 27-year-old is still listed on the label's Web site as one of their artists, Hilton hasn't been affiliated with the music giant for "months," an insider told the Daily News.
Hilton's new label - if she can find one - will likely work with Heiress in a similar nature to the sub-label's relationship with Warner.
"Paris" peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard charts, but was widely seen as a flop with a dismal 75,000 copies sold in its first week.
A Warner rep wouldn't say whether weak sales were to blame for the split.
Hilton's manager confirmed that the singer will be releasing her next album on her own label, but wouldn't comment when asked if his client had teamed up yet with another heavy hitter.
Hilton unveiled her new single, "My BFF," on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS FM radio show in October.
"I was really inspired by Kylie Minogue," she said, noting, "I wrote every song on the record."
Her new venture is a "very personal album," Hilton said. "My last album was very hip-hop ... this is completely different."

Paris Hilton and Avril Lavigne Party Pals

Continuing their assault on Los Angeles nightlife, Paris Hilton and Avril Lavigne were spotted out and about last night, partying at club Bardot.
The “Simple Life” starlet looked super sexy as she arrived in a black leather jacket/black tank top/short red skirt/black leather knee-high boots combo, while her “Complicated” songstress gal pal kept things a bit more conservative in a heart-pattern zip-up hoodie with charcoal jeans and black shoes.
Perhaps Paris is getting music tips from Avril, as Miss Hilton is finishing up work on her new album, said to be influenced by Kylie Minogue.
Paramore producer Mike Green was reportedly at the helm for the new dance-inspired project, though there’s no word yet as to which label will be releasing it, or when it will hit stores
