Paris Hilton's Britney snub

Britney Spears desperately wanted to rekindle her friendship with Paris Hilton but the hotel heiress snubbed her, it has been reported.

The 'Toxic' singer and 'The Simple Life' star became best friends for a few weeks after Britney filed for divorce from Kevin Federline and were seen partying in Hollywood almost every night.

While Britney would love to go out with Paris again, the socialite won't return her calls.

A source told Life and Style Weekly magazine: "Britney is dying to hang out with Paris. She's trying to get her cell phone number and passing messages to her through other friends.

"Paris moved on a long time ago when it comes to Britney. She feels sorry for her, but that is as far as it goes!"

Since Britney, 25, split from Kevin she has worried her ex-husband with her erratic behaviour, after shaving her head and entering rehab.

Kevin is seeking sole physical custody of his two sons with Britney, 22-month-old Sean Preston and 10-month -old Jayden James.

Meanwhile, 26-year-old Paris has served 23 days behind bars for driving with a suspended licence and has vowed to become a better person.
