WE are shocked – shocked! – that Paris Hilton may have bought her own faux engagement ring to start speculation that Stavros Niarchos is going to marry her. Hilton wore a fake diamond solitaire on her left ring finger to an alice+olivia dinner party last week and wouldn’t answer questions about her and Niarchos. But close friends say they’re not engaged – and moreover, the shipping heir’s parents have no intention of even meeting their son’s sometime succubus. "They refused to meet her last year when Paris and Stavros had dated for a while," a source said. "Paris even followed him and his family to Hawaii, where they go every New Year’s, and they still wouldn’t meet her. They think she’s tacky." It’s a sentiment that seems to be shared by the father of Nicky Hilton’s paramour, David Katzenberg. A family friend said Jeffrey Katzenberg, the former Disney exec who co-founded DreamWorks, "thinks the Hiltons are just . . . lowbrow and that his son is young and should be dating around." Meanwhile, it’s only been a month, but Nicky and David are already saying, "I love you."

Can you blame them? Although I don’t think Nicky is as bad.
