HOTEL heiress Paris Hilton tried to tackle soccer hunk Frank Lampard after
spotting him at a post-Brit Awards bash.
The millionaire party princess, 24, pursued the Chelsea and England midfielder
across a string of London venues.
It looked like she might be making a cheeky bid to persuade the free-scoring
footballer to play the field.
But Blues star Frank, 27 — who is engaged to long-term Spanish girlfriend Elen
Rives — cleverly dodged the challenge and eventually gave her the slip.
Blonde Paris first clapped eyes on the Premiership pin-up at the crowded Warner
Music party, held after Wednesday’s Brits in a grand private home close to
Kensington Palace.
She danced her way through a crowd of fellow partygoers to make her pass.
True gent Frank, who has a daughter with Elen, happily chatted away and even
gave Paris a phone number before leaving the bash.
But he instantly became a marked man as the American began visiting a selection
of other parties in a bid to track him down again.
Paris — who split from her Greek shipping heir boyfriend Stavros Niarchos just
last month — first popped into Nobu Berkley for the Universal party with
pint-sized pop legend Prince.
She then sampled Kanye West’s Cristal champagne-popping celebrations at Movida
before finally ending up at the EMI knees-up in the swanky Baglioni Hotel.
There she climbed on a table to dance in the darkened club — and to get a better
view of the guests.
And with just minutes to go until the final whistle blew on the party, Paris
made her second move on Lamps.
She purred: “Hi, you’re here, that’s so hot.”
Then she pulled out her diamond-encrusted Blackberry and tapped in his name to
check that she had input the correct telephone number for him.
Frank plastered a grin on his face as Paris stroked his arm, then said: “Stay
here, I won’t be long. I’m going to the toilet and I’ll be right back.”
But after she cleared the area, Lamps gave her a final red card, grabbing his
mates and sprinting 20 yards to the door.
