Paris Hilton Wants Your Pity

Some people drown their sorrows in tubs of ice cream. Others draw attention to themselves by frequenting clubs, looking sullen and earning sympathy from the celebrity gossip blogosphere.

Guess which category Paris Hilton falls into.

Th newly single socialite was spotted at Los Angeles hot spot Crown Bar last night, but multiple sources say she wasn't her typical, happy, wasted self.

"She definitely didn't seem like her usual party girl self tonight," said a witness. "[She was] way more reserved and distracted, like her mind was elsewhere. She was trying very hard to appear carefree, but it was clear she didn't want to be there and was waiting for the right moment to make her exit."

First, she needed every photographer in a six-mile radius to snap her picture, of course.

Added another onlooker: "Hilton looked distraught and completely lonesome. She wasn't her usual prim and proper self."

Paging Stavros Niarchos! Insecure, lonely reality TV needs a bedmate!
