Paris Hilton set to release album next month (Reuters) Updated: 2006-07-21 08:38
With her single unexpectedly doing well on the Billboard charts, Paris Hilton
will release her self-titled album on August 22.
Hilton's "Stars Are Blind" is currently No. 16 this week on the Billboard Pop
100 singles chart; its accompanying video is in rotation on MTV and VH1.
Among the tracks on the Warner Bros. album is a cover of Rod Stewart's "Da Ya
Think I'm Sexy," as well as "Fightin' Over Me," featuring rappers Jadakiss and
Fat Joe.
"She has a certain tone that's reminiscent of Cyndi Lauper and Blondie," said
Scott Storch, one of the album's producers. "The album doesn't have one
particular sound. It's just good music; a combination of R&B, hip-hop and
pop. It will surprise a lot of people because there's real artistry coming from
Paris."
A behind-the-scenes special on the creation of "Paris Hilton" will premiere
August 8 on MTV.
