Paris Hilton Denies Carrying Cannabis In Her Handbag

Paris Hilton has denied that she carries cannabis in her handbag despite pictures suggesting otherwise.

Heiress Hilton was pictured at the weekend by the British tabloids with a suspicious bag of what looked to be marijuana.

However, representatives for the Simple Life star have been quick to deny that it was in fact the illegal drug.

Her publicist Elliot Mintz said: "I just want to get something clear. Paris Hilton rolls her own tobacco cigarettes. It was tobacco."
