Prince Wants Paris To Act Her Age And Not Her Shoe Size, Luda's Acting Bug, and PETA's Pissed At Beyonce

Paris Hilton may think Prince is hot -- but looks like he thinks she's not. The partying heiress toasted the "Purple Rain" singer in a London club this week -- only to have him sneak out the back. Hilton was reportedly drinking the powerful liquor absinthe at the club Kaberet Prophecy when she got into the DJ box and announced to the crowd, "I'm celebrating my birthday and Prince is in the house, so I want to play his new single because he's hot," according to London's Sun newspaper. The artist, hiding under a hood, quickly headed for the exit, but Hilton danced on the table tops until 3:30 a.m. (source) Click here to see Prince performing on stage at the Brit Awards.

Atlanta based emcee Chris "Ludacris" Bridges is expanding his acting resume to television with an appearance on "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" next month. "When I was approached to work on 'SVU' and read the script, there was no way that I could turn down this amazing opportunity," he said. Ludacris will play hip hop pioneer Ice-T’s ("Detective Finn") nephew in an episode that airs March 28th. "The character was so rich and the story line so complex that I knew it was something I had to do," said Ludacris. In 2004 he co-starred as a philosophic car jacker in the award winning film "Crash" and acted last year in "Hustle & Flow." Ludacris has also appeared in "2 Fast 2 Furious" (2003) and "Wash" (2001).

Beyonce Knowles is under attack from animal rights activists because her label, House of Dereon, started selling clothes made of rabbit and chinchilla fur, and teddy bears made of mink. Knowles has been inundated with hate mail and activists have threatened to leave carcasses outside of her house. This will make the second time Beyonce has come under fire from animal welfare groups. She was included in a group of celebrities who were blasted by PETA for wearing Canadian Mukluk boots, which are made of rabbit fur. The organization's spokesman said:"The rabbits are sourced from Asia and crammed into small, wire boxes before being electrocuted or strangled. Many are skinned alive. As far as we can see, this kind of treatment is what celebrities - those who don't give a damn - are supporting. Fake fur looks every bit as good." Thanks Mika!
