Socialite Paris Hilton has taken up piano lessons in a bid to take full control of her music career.

The 26-year-old - who co-wrote five songs on her 2006 debut album Paris - hopes to be able to play the instrument by the time she heads into the studio to record her next LP. She says, “This way, I can write my own music and have more control with others not pushing in.”

Socialite Paris Hilton has flown to the U.K. to watch legendary rockers Led Zeppelin take to the stage for their reunion concert.

The 26-year-old will join her boyfriend, Greek shipping heir Stavros Niarchos, at London’s O2 Arena on Monday (10Dec07) night when the band reform to pay tribute to their late friend and Atlantic Records founder, Ahmet Ertegun. According to celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, the couple have planned a romantic break in the British capital after attending the show.

Paris Hilton desperately wants to get back together with her shipping heir ex, Stavros Niarchos, Page Six reports. The heiress, who is in South Beach for the annual Art Basel festivities along with the playboy, has spent the last week following Stav around the affluent section of Miami like a dog in heat and even socked a woman in the face after she got a little to close to his goodies.

Page Six reports:

Hilton first ran into him at Mansion Wednesday night, where he was paid to host the official Art Basel kickoff party. When the Greek shipping heir showed up with Brandon Davis’ ex-girlfriend, Caroline Vreeland, however, Hilton was not pleased. “Paris beelined for Stavros, but he was chatting up Caroline,” said our source. “He was completely ignoring Paris, and she was furious. She shot them evil looks and finally stormed up to them and started screaming at Caroline.”

Later in the week: “Paris saw that Stavros was with a girl, and she went crazy. She literally stood on Stavros’ table and began screaming at him. Then she started dancing and trying to get his attention.”

“Paris went to great lengths trying to get Stavros’ date kicked out, begging club security to get rid of the girl.” Our witness even claimed, “Paris was so furious, she ended up walking up to the girl and just punched her.”

Paris’ rep, of course, denies the claim:

“Paris was at both clubs but at no time physically struck anyone. These accusations are completely false.” Meanwhile, the art fair is in full swing and Miami is in gridlock. “The city was unprepared,” a limo driver said. “Everyone brought an entourage with them this year and the traffic is impossible. It takes forever to get from one end of town to another.”

For sale: Video showing Paris Hilton allegedly ripping her posters of her porn tape, “One Night In Paris” off a Toronto Porn store wall, according to CTV.CA.

The owners of the store said they were negotiating with two U.S. tabloid entertainment shows for exclusive rights to the footage. Offers as high as $50,000 were reportedly made for the tape, reports CTV.

Employees at a Toronto adult video store claim Hilton stormed into their establishment and demanded posters promoting her raunchy sex tape with Rick Salomon be removed.

Hilton is in the city filming a movie, and she allegedly ordered employees to take down their “One Night in Paris” displays in the front window.

CTV News was allowed to view the incident captured on surveillance video.

“You guys can’t use my image in a porn store,” a woman said to be Hilton was heard saying. “I’m going to call my lawyer and sue the (expletive) out of this place.”

The woman is seen in the video tearing down several posters in the store.

“I really want them down because they’re mean and this is not right. I’m really serious, this is disgusting,” she says.

“And I want the other ones too or I’m calling the (expletive) cops.”

Employees said they were shocked to see Hilton in their store. One manager, who identified himself to CTV News as “Robert,” said he was surprised by her aggressive behavior.

Store owners said about 30 minutes after the woman left the store, a man identifying himself as Hilton’s manager came in and told them to keep the incident quiet. They said the man claimed if any security video of the incident was leaked, the store owners could be sued for defamation of character.

Several calls by CTV Toronto to Hilton’s manager regarding the incident were not returned.

She said; “I’ll be going in November, after I get back from filming my movie.

I know there’s a lot of good I can do just by getting involved and bringing attention to these issues.”
