Kylie Minogue Inspires Paris Hilton's New Sound 10/1/08

Paris Hilton's new pop sound is inspired by Kylie Minogue.

The socialite admits she's a big fan of the Aussie icon and wanted her second album to be a tribute to her musical heroine.

Hilton says, "I was really inspired by Kylie Minogue. I love her; I just love that European dance vibe.

"The last album was completely hip-hop and this is completely different."

And the socialite reveals her new record features a few "tongue-in-cheek" songs, called Platinum Blonde and Paris For President, as well as a hard-hitting song, Jailhouse Baby - about her time spent behind bars in 2007.

The album will be released next month (Oct08).
