The rants and raves of a spoiled rich girl may have been the only thing that crossed out minds when Paris Hilton read an excerpt from her prison diaries on ‘Larry King Live’ but someone heard the makings of a rock anthem that could rival Def Leppard.

A new video was posted on FunnyOrDie.com that features Paris’ writings that were turned into a hilarious rock ballad. The so-called lyrics from her journal are sung in true rock glory and were displayed over a video of Paris’ greatest moments – or hits – her trip to jail, reuniting with her mom and recent vacation in Hawaii.

Singer Avril Lavigne is facing legal action by members of 1970s rock band The Rubinoos, who claim she has copied one of their songs.
Songwriters Tommy Dunbar and James Gangwer allege Lavigne’s Girlfriend was lifted from their 1979 song I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend.
Avril Lavigne is married to Deryck Whibley, lead singer of Sum 41 Lavigne’s spokeswoman declined to comment about the allegations.

In a statement, Dunbar said: “We are not so naive as to chalk it up to some sort of cosmic coincidence.”

He added: “The lyric, the metre, the rhythm - they’re identical.”

The case will be heard in Oakland, California, on 28 August.

New wave group The Rubinoos toured and recorded from 1975 to 1983 and had a hit with a cover version of Tommy James and the Shondells’ I Think We’re Alone Now.

They also wrote the theme song for the movie Revenge of the Nerds.

Lavigne, best known for hits such as Complicated and Sk8er Boi, recently scooped the award for favourite Canadian artist at the MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto.
