US socialite Paris Hilton is being sued for $35 million for wearing someone else’s hair after she reportedly failed to promote a range of hair extensions.
The hotel heiress had signed up to promote a range of hair extensions as part of a marketing campaign in 2007 for Hairtech International, Contactmusic reported. The company reportedly paid her $3.5 million to be the face of their Dream Catchers range of clip-in locks. But bosses were furious when she allegedly appeared in “magazines and on television” wearing hair extensions made by a rival competitor. The lawsuit filed in Los Angeles superior court states Hairtech International is seeking $35 million in damages for Hilton’s bre-ach of contract.

‘Jackson hid from staff in tunnel’
London: Pop superstar Michael Jackson once hid in a secret underground tunnel at a concert to avoid talking to his staff, according to his voice coach.
Yvie Burnett, who tutored Leona Lewis when she won Britain’s the X Factor in 2006, worked with the Thriller hitmaker during a tour and she was stunned by his “rude” behaviour, OK! magazine online reported.
“I remember a long time ago, I was working with Jackson and he had a tunnel built which took him from the stage into the dressing room. He crawled into this big white tunnel so he didn’t have to speak to any of us,” she said. “He was probably the rudest (celebrity) because we all went up to meet him and he wouldn’t speak to anyone.” —PTI
