: Gosh, as if an heiress isn't busy enough! Paris Hilton turned up at Brentano's Bookstore in Century City Tuesday to sign her new book ``Confessions of an Heiress: A Tongue-in-Chic Peek Behind the Pose.''

Most of her ex-boyfriends (except the sex video cad) are seen in ``My Best Accessory'' chapter. And she gives essential heiress tips like ``Never talk about working out to guys. They should think you're perfect and effortless.'' On wearing tiaras: ``People treat you differently when you have jewelry on your head.''

What's telling is the preferred flavors. Adam Sandler and P. Diddy like Revive to combat ``sluggishness and laziness.'' The millionaire music magnate, sluggish? Who knew?

Britney Spears needs Focus, a kiwi-strawberry drink that its label says should be ``applied orally to dazed and confused brain cells often associated with balancing your checkbook.'' Gosh, we thought she had accountants for that!

Ashton Kutcher craves Energy, a tropical citrus drink with lots of vitamin C and some, um, stimulating ginseng. Just the picker-upper he needs to keep up with his old lady Demi Moore.
