Paris Says She and Benji Are “Taking a Break”

Paris Hilton called into Ryan Seacrest’s show this morning to clarify a few things about her split from Benji Madden.

[R]ather than calling it a breakup, she said, “Right now we’re just taking a break.”

Hilton also left open the possibility that she and Madden could get back together down the road.

“He is an incredible person, and we will always be really close,” Hilton said. “We will see what happens in the future. I am still in love with him.”

As for why they decided to go their separate ways for now…

“He has been working nonstop with his brother on his new record. I am working and traveling,” she said. “All these reports that say I dumped him aren’t true. This is a decision we made together as adults.”

Hilton also claims that, despite the rumors, she is not getting back together with her ex-beau Stavros Niarchos, who she saw last weekend at a party in Miami.

“That’s ridiculous,” she said. “I was on a girls’ weekend with some BFFs from [my MTV] show. Someone must have gotten a quick camera-phone picture of Stavros saying hi. He’s someone I hadn’t seen in a year.”

She also says that the split won’t affect her friendship with Nicole Richie, who’s dating Benji’s brother Joel. “Nicole and I don’t get in each other’s relationships. We have a friendship that has been going on since we were 2 years old,” she said.

Whatever, Paris Hilton can’t be alone for more than 20 seconds. She’ll be photographed sucking face with someone else any minute now … let’s see, who’s single recently? Guy Ritchie? Oooh, how much fun would that be??? Please, Paris?

  • yeah, all mys exes just say hi by touching my hair & whispering close into my ear…she is such a stupid whore! madden is a douche, but somehow even he probably deserves better.

  • How sweet would a fight between Paris and Madonna be? regardless of who ended up losing, it’d be a win-win for the masses
