Benji Madden and Paris Hilton have definitely broken up, according to multiple reputable sources. Paris doomed the relationship from the start by constantly yapping about how Benji was the love of her life and all the babies she wanted to have right away with him. Paris ended the relationship, and Benji was said to be fairly upset about it. According to Fox News’ Pop Tarts, Benji is known to be somewhat controlling, and he and Paris were constantly butting heads about it. It sounds like it’s all for the best, and now Paris can get back to doing what she really loves: skanking it up.
Paris Hilton is fed up with being out of the spotlight and has dumped her boyfriend of nine months, Good Charlotte rocker Benji Madden, to resume partying. Hilton publicist Alanna McCarthy said yesterday the two “remain very good friends.” But the heiress caused quite a splash in Miami over the weekend, when photos surfaced of her coyly whispering into the ear of her ex Stavros Niarchos at Liv nightclub in the rebuilt Fontainebleau hotel. “Paris was with all her BFFs from the show,” one source told us.
Missing in action was Benji, who was in New York Sunday. Our source told us that Hilton was the one who ended it, and, “Benji was really upset when the photos [of her and Niarchos] came out.”

Pop Tarts says that this isn’t the first time Benji’s control issues broke up a relationship, and that they were a big factor in Sophie Monk ending their engagement. They also hint that Benji was jealous of Paris’ empty flirting relationship with Prince William.
So went wrong between the joined-at-the-lip twosome? It seems that Hilton and Madden recently sealed a rumored six-figure deal to swing by Australia on New Year’s Eve to attend the launch party for a new social online networking system, Bongo Virus. Paris is booked to be the host of the bash, while Benji is set to do the spinning.
According to an insider associated with the Australian company, Prince William may have had plans to meet up with Paris to ring in the New Year, having spent quite some time with her while she’s been filming her “My BFF” show in London.
So did Prince William’s extra attention irk Benji? According to an inside source, the ultra-quiet Benji can be well, kind of controlling, which apparently played a significant role in his split from former fiancée Sophie Monk. And given Paris’s perennial partying lifestyle and love of the nightlife, things just weren’t smooth sailing.

If their characterization of Madden is right, he probably thought he could get Paris to settle down and behave herself the same way Joel got Nicole Ritchie to. Of course Joel had to get Nicole pregnant first, something Benji was smart enough not to do with Paris. Considering how often Paris has blabbered on about wanting babies, I’m pretty surprised that she’d pick partying over Benji, controlling or not. I always thought she seemed like the sort who would sacrifice every part of her identity for a guy, but I guess I was wrong. I don’t know if the breakup means Paris is smarter than I thought or even more stupid. But I do know every eligible male on both coasts better start popping some Valtrex, just to be safe.
Here’s Paris in Beverly Hills on Tuesday at Portofino airbrush tanning salon. Images thanks to Fame.
And Nicole Ritchie heaves a heavy sigh of relief…
When boozing becomes more important than true love/babies/white picket fences, I begin to think the love was not all that true.
I love how Paris always carries around her OWN merchandise, always promoting herself. Such a selfish bitch.
Duh!
I’m still confused about how she was fed up being out of the spotlight. Huh?
Sophie wouldn’t put up with his domineering controlling ways and Paris got the blame for it because she’s a skank. Now Paris doesn’t want to put up with being told how to live her life and its all because she’s a skank (for skank read ) it doesn’t matter what she does or how she does it, it’s all because she’s a skank and as everybody knows skanks have no right to any consideration at all because their not like us 😕
I dunno, Xiao, I was pretty skanky in my day.
Syko……you get my point though
Isn’t it time for her to o.d, get another dui or just die?
I thought she might actually try to make it work since Nicole got all this attention for settling down and becoming what appears to be a very good mother. I always thought it was a little creepy to be dating your (ex?) bff’s boyfriend’s identical twin.
devilgirl: My thoughts, exactly. This one hit her expiration date a long time ago.
I agree, Jackie. Something psychologically unsettling, almost like she subconsciously wanted to turn the knife counter-clockwise.
Oh please, Prince William would have nothing to do with Paris. She repeatedly tried to skank up on him and Prince Harry at the hot London clubs and they rebuffed her. It was all over the gossip rags. She wishes in her wet dreams the Princes would come within 50 feet of her skank a$$. Like Prince William would give up the lovely and ladylike Kate Middleton for this slut?
The future wife of the Heir to the Throne has to be a virgin, and is medically inspected to ensure that is the case. I really don’t think the Royal gynecologist performing Paris’s exam needs to be retrieved by a search party of base-jumpers and winched back out after he’s fallen in.
“We are not amused”
*coughCAMILLAcough* 😆
I think that any such requirement for previously unmarried women has long since fallen by the wayside in most monarchies Baho. Even with Edward VIII, if Mrs. Simpson was a widow, the marriage would have been accepted; it was a fact that she was a two-time divorcée who had an affair with the Prince of Wales, that caused the scandal there.
And you can be bloody sure that Grace Kelly didn’t have a virginal reputation when she married Prince Renier of Monaco 😉
Back to what she knows best- skanking it up big time with whatever random rich guy is willing to risk sitting next to her. She’ll be the first person whose Herpes infection will go airborne. The original MaryJane RottenCrotch.
You’re right Mairead with regard to Camilla, but it’s largely suspected that Charles will give way to William. Regardless, Diana received The Examination.
P.S. I forgot to add that both Camilla and Mrs. Simpson were past childbearing age. I think it has to do with any progeny having to come from a virgin bride to ensure paternity – assuming something ridiculous like the bride would conceive on the wedding night and not possibly have relations with anyone else during the course of the marriage.
Baho……no way will Charles ever step aside for Wills. He’s waited so long for it, he deserves his coronation in Westminster Abbey. It’s his birthright. He’s as stuffy and dyed in the wool about this as his mother; monarchs die, they don’t retire. Tradition is their whole raison d’etre
xiaoecho: maybe they don’t retire in the UK, but they sure do in the Netherlands. It’s always made a lot of sense to me to let the heir have a long work-in period, then officially take over while their predecessor is still around to advise.
Contemporary European royals have a much healthier and more intelligent approach to monarchy. Although how this topic has entered a Wonkeye thread is beyond hilarious!! 😀
Phew, at least they did not have a baby for her to whore out.
I the world has moved from Paris, now if Paris did the same.
Paris’s “wants” are fleeting and transparent by nature, depending on what the other girls she knows are doing at any given moment. The only reason she ever wanted a kid was because her main competition, Nicole Ritchie, had a baby before she did. And by the way, did anyone actually ever believe her relationship with Benji would last? Again, a calculated move on her part to deflect attention away from Nicole. Furthermore, I highly doubt and do not believe she developed any type of relationship or even friendship with Prince William. He seems too smart to get wrapped up in her web. The best and truest Paris moment will always be her being led away in handcuffs by the police.
Paris gives Benji a bigger PR boost than visa versa, therefore time for break up
