Kelly Osbourne Fears Paris Hilton's Influence  1/30/06

Singer Kelly Osbourne is shocked by how much of a "bad influence" Paris Hilton is on pre-teen girls attempting to ape her sex kitten style.

The Osbournes star admits Hilton is not to blame, but is concerned by the number of young girls who are inspired by the often scantily-clad society girl.

She says, "Me and Mum (Sharon Osbourne) went to an awards show recently.

There was a little girl there, and Mum said, 'How old are you?'

"She said, 'I'm 11.' And she had on a mini-skirt, a tank top that barely covered her boobs, or lack thereof, four inch heels and long bleached-blonde hair.

"Paris Hilton is who she is. Paris doesn't hold up a sign saying, 'Everybody dress like me.' But she is a bad influence."
