Hilton apologises to celebrity pals

Paris Hilton has issued a public apology to her many pals who have been bombarded with calls since the contents of her mobile phone ended up on the internet.

Hordes of celebrities, including Christina Aguilera, Eminem, Anna Kournikova and Ashley Olsen received hundreds of calls after Hilton's T-Mobile Sidekick was recently hacked.

She tells US Weekly: "I feel horrible that, once again, someone has invaded my privacy."

Hilton learned of the leak while holidaying on the Caribbean island of Aruba with her new boyfriend.

She says: "My sister (Nicky) told me what was out there. It's too upsetting for me - I can't believe it.

"I want to apologise to all my friends and family. I don't know why this stuff always happens to me, but I wouldn't wish it on anymore."
