Paris Hilton reportedly abandoned long-term publicist Elliot Mintz after leaving jail in June to create a new public image.

After pledging to be more mature and use her fame only for good, Paris’ outfits have leaned toward the conservative rather than scandalous over the last few weeks - and she was even spotted kissing a baby over the weekend - but a source has told the New York Post that it’s not a true change of heart.

The source told the newspaper: “Paris hired a crisis publicist because of all the negative attention after she got out of jail. But it’s just for her public image.”

“You can tell that it’s hard for her that she is not supposed to be seeking the attention anymore.”

“She is going to the types of events that her people tell her to go to. But she is definitely staying away from the club scene. Paris is all about her dogs and hanging out alone.”

“She’s being smart right now, but she’s a party girl at heart … we’ll just have to wait and see.”
