Paris Hilton has paid $13,000 for the "world's smallest Pomeranian" dog.
The animal-loving socialite splashed out the huge sum for the super-cute dog which she bought from specialist dog sellers Betty's Teacup Yorkies, who dubbed the pup 'Mr. Amazing'.
A post describing 'Mr. Amazing' on the company's website - which now has a "sold to Paris Hilton" message with it - reads: "One in a million micro, tiny little boy Mr. Amazing. He is 4.5 months old, only 10 ounces, he is amazing! Triple white ice coat with the flattest bear face ever! Super short compact cob by body with the shortest little legs ever. He has big round eyes. Ones like him are very hard to find..."
The dog - who is only 2.5 inches tall - will soon be flown from his breeders in Calgary, Canada, to Paris' home in Los Angeles and will be accompanied by his own personal nanny for the trip.
The 33-year-old blonde is very excited about meeting her new canine friend, posting on Twitter: "I love him! Cutest thing on Earth! Love my new baby!"
However, it seems Paris will not be letting the pooch keep his 'Mr. Amazing' moniker as she has asked her millions of Twitter followers to come up with a new name for the mutt.
She tweeted: "Any name suggestions for my new lil baby? (sic)"

George Clooney has told Amal Alamuddin he cannot "wait to be her husband".
The 'Gravity' actor praised his fiancée in a touching speech as he collected an award at the Celebrity Fight Night in Florence, Italy.
As George took to the stage at the event on Sunday (07.09.14), he addressed his future wife and said: "I would just like to say to my bride-to-be Amal that I love you very much and I can't wait to be your husband."
According to E!, the human rights lawyer was very touched by the public display of affection from her handsome fiancé.
An eyewitness said: "She seemed so touched and overwhelmed and at that moment they looked right at each other and it was as if there was no one else in the room."
It was also at the Italian gala, which was held in support of the Andres Bocelli Foundation and The Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center, that the 53-year-old star let slip that he would be getting married in Venice in a "couple of weeks", after it was reported that the couple would have their romantic ceremony in Lake Como.
He told the crowd: "I met my bride-to-be in Italy, and I will be married in Italy soon, in a couple of weeks. In Venice, of all places."
Amal was recently spotted at the Alexander McQueen headquarters, prompting speculation that she would be using the same wedding dress designer as the Duchess of Cambridge - who wore a dress designed by Sarah Burton, the creative director of the brand for her wedding to Prince William in April 2011.

Michael Jackson's family treasures are going up for auction.
A large number of items that belonged to the late King of pop - who died of acute Propofol intoxication in June 2009 - and his family have been put up for sale by a company named Vintage Associates, who obtained the property from a major collector of Michael Jackson memorabilia, who has been declared bankrupt, the New York Daily News newspaper reports.
Included in the auction are Michael's sister Janet's old bras, master recordings of Jackson 5 music that has never been released, business and court files, toys owned by Michael and his siblings and even La Toya Jackson's old sex toys.
Peter Siegel of Gotta Have It! Collectibles - the auction house handling the sale - said: "Some of the items are ordinary items that could come out of any household - but when it has the provenance of being from the Jackson household, that's history."
In addition to the court documents from a 1987 restraining order Michael sought against a woman claiming to be the Billie Jean from his 1983 hit song of the same name, is a black tuxedo that was worn by his pet chimpanzee Bubbles.
The online auction comes to an end on September 19 on the auction house's website GottaHaveIt.com.
The bids for most items begin at $100 with the exception of the unheard Jackson 5 tapes which have a starting price of $1,000, despite the records not being sold with copyrights to publish the songs.
Siegel added: "This is a great way for the general public to own a piece of Jackson family history for as little as $100.

Cara Delevingne is writing her autobiography.
The 22-year-old model is putting pen to paper on a book about her younger years and has even been taking a pen and notepad wherever she goes to ensure she can scribble down her childhood memories when one suddenly comes to her.
A source said: "Cara wants to document her life before she became famous.
"She's not interested in writing about her meteoric rise in the fashion world.
"Instead she hopes to go into detail about her younger years."
Cara's former flames Michelle Rodriguez and Harry Styles look set to miss out on a mention in her new tome as she is said to be keen to fill the book with some of her "weird thoughts and anecdotes" as well as her early memories.
A source added to the Daily Star newspaper: "She doesn't want to include any big revelations. It'll just be a collection of weird thoughts and anecdotes."
As well as writing her book, Cara recently added another string to her bow when she launched her music career in a "dive" pub in New York.
The star was joined by Zoe Kravitz - daughter of the legendary rocker singer Lenny Kravitz - as she performed her first ever solo gig in the small establishment.

Lady Gaga smoked hookah in the desert.
The 'Bad Romance' hitmaker - who is currently enjoying a getaway in Dubai - took time out of her busy schedule yesterday (11.09.14) to relax with a shisha pipe after riding camels, watching belly dancers and having her hands decorated in henna.
The 28-year-old star said she was "overwhelmed by the kindness" that she had been shown on the excursion and took to her Instagram account to share photos of the trip.
She captioned an image of her henna-decorated hands adorned with diamond jewellery: "We ate and enjoyed Hookah in the middle of the desert. The women gave us Henna, and we rode camels in the moonlight. The belly dancer was sensational. I'm overwhelmed by the kindness everyone has show us."
On another image of her feet covered in elegant floral patterns she wrote: "What a beautiful desert night."
Just a few hours later the 'Pokerface' hitmaker added a final shot of herself enjoying hookah and proudly displaying her newly-inked fingers.
She wrote: "No matter where I go this gypsy is a #monster4life. (sic)"
Prior to her night of indulgence, Gaga had lashed out at critics who had attacked her figure after she posted a photo of herself in a flesh-coloured swimsuit.
The singer hit back posting a further image of herself clad in the swimsuit with the caption: "#bodyrevolution Proud at any size, because the inside is what really counts. Plus, it's all how you pose! Just ask the supermodels! (sic)"
After receiving support from a fan on Twitter, she replied: "Id rather be fat than be shallow (sic)"
When another fan wrote: "I honestly can't imagine receiving comments about my weight everyday. How insulting and degrading. Also gaga is perfect so back off," the blonde beauty responded: "all day long every day, so what if I got a belly sometimes, sometimes I don't. There's people starving in the world. #whocares (sic)"

Professor Green considered suicide last year.
The 30-year-old rapper hit rock bottom and even contemplated ending his own life after he broke his leg in May 2013 when he was crushed between two cars and was arrested for drink-driving last November.
Speaking to the Daily Mirror newspaper, he said: "I was definitely in the situation where the thought of ending it [my life] crossed my mind. I didn't think about how I'd do it, but there were moments with the anxiety of it all, I wanted to get out of my own skin.
"The feeling of being uncomfortable in your own skin is the worst you can have."
In March this year, Pro Green - real name Stephen Manderson - was given a 12-month driving ban after he pleaded guilty to driving under the influence (DUI) but claimed he committed the offence to protect his reality TV star wife Millie Mackintosh from a thief, who had just stolen his £40,000 Rolex watch.
The 'Never Be A Right Time' hitmaker, whose father hung himself in 2008, then attempted to gain control of his anxiety by seeking therapy and talking through his worries but he insists he now knows how to deal with the moments of emotional uneasiness by himself.
He explained: "I tried cognitive behavioural therapy, but it didn't work for me. I think therapy and talking is important and cathartic, so I've got a way of getting the feelings out. Sometimes it takes a little while, but now I've got the tools to get myself through it."

Taylor Swift flew out of Luton airport as thousands of passengers were evacuated after a bomb scare.
The 24-year-old singer was driven on to the runway and allowed to leave in her private jet at 4.11pm on Monday (08.09.14) while everybody else was forced to leave the premises after a passenger reported seeing a "vapour" coming from a piece of luggage.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Swift's convoy consisted of a white Porsche, a silver Mercedes van and a black Range Rover.
"It had somehow managed to navigate its way to a closed airport and Swift was able to board her flight."
Luton airport was closed for four hours from 1:15pm while armed police, the Army and emergency services rushed to the scene in Bedfordshire.
The bomb disposal team arrived at 4:30pm and used a robot to blow up the suitcase containing the worrying explosive, which turned out to be hair straighteners.
Passengers were allowed to re-enter the airport at 5:30pm, but many flights had already been cancelled and 10 planes had been diverted to London Stansted, Birmingham and London Gatwick.
A spokesperson for the airport said: "All of the arriving flights were suspended.
"However, there were three flights on the ground that were permitted to fly. Two of them were commercial."
A representative for Taylor said: "She wasn't making her way to a commercial flight."

Iggy Azalea has denied claims she recorded a sex tape with an ex-boyfriend.
TMZ reports that a top Hollywood porn boss has claimed that he'd seen footage of Iggy with one of her ex-boyfriends - something the 'Fancy' singer has strenuously denied.
Speaking on Twitter, she said: "Obviously I've seen the news feed today and I just want to say I don't have a sex tape."
Iggy added: "We should want to protect our women and I really hope that America will follow Europe and their laws to better protect peoples privacy and fundamental rights [sic].
"And on that note, I'm off to get a manicure peaaaaaaceeeeeee outttttt *drops the mic*."
Earlier, Vivid boss Steven Hirsch told TMZ that the video could prove to be even more popular than the sex tape that helped make Kim Kardashian famous.
'Kim Kardashian Superstar' showed the reality TV star having sex with her ex-boyfriend and music star Ray J.
However, Iggy's representatives have dismissed suggestions that it is her in the video and have threatened to pursue legal action if it is released with her being named as the star.

Nicole Kidman says her children keep her feeling young.
The 47-year-old actress has two daughters, Sunday, six, and Faith, three, with her husband Keith Urban and she feels energised by them all the time.
She said: "There's something true about their life force. Children keep you young, they keep you engaged and they bring joy ... It's like we always dance at Keith's shows - Sunday and Faith are there and we'll be dancing side stage."
Nicole and Keith, 46, have been married now for eight years and she claims the secret to the success of their relationship is that they always make each other their number one "priority" in their lives.
In an interview on UK radio station Magic FM: "We stay really tight, we're very, very close. We have friends, but our priority is each other - we both grew up with parents who are like that."
Even though Nicole and Keith are often forced apart due to work commitments they make a rule to always speak to each other at least 10 times a day.
The 'Before I Go To Sleep' star added: "We're crazy. We'll speak 10 times a day. After nine years together we're both so grateful to have somebody that we not just love but who we like as well. It's a great combo. We all know what it's like to love someone and not really like them."
