Paris Hilton: Benji Madden Romance "Not a Hoax"
Friday March 14, 2008
Paris Hilton and Benji Madden attend a press conference for her new show on MTV "Paris Hilton's My New BFF" at a private residence on March 13, 2008 in Los Angeles, CA.
Paris Hilton is speaking out for the first time about her overnight romance with
Benji Madden.
"I'm really happy!" she said during an interview on
Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show Friday morning. "I feel very safe and secure. He's a great guy.
"He's been my friend for a couple of years now, and we're really happy," gushed Hilton, who said Madden was by her side during the 8 a.m. telephone interview.
She said it was his idea to wear the matching '
BM' and '
PH' rings. "That was a very special present I got," Hilton said. "He's really sweet."
She also said her parents approve of the relationship. "They're really happy for me!"
Madden's twin brother,
Joel, is dating Hilton's BFF
Nicole Richie, who recently welcomed daughter Harlow.
Throughout the interview, Seacrest teased her that their romance was just a spoof for
Ashton Kutcher's new E! prank show (Hilton recently staged a scene with a guru for the show).
"This is not for
Pop Fiction," Hilton insisted. "It's not a hoax!"
Hilton and Madden first
made their relationship public on February 21, smooching at Hollywood hot spot Villa.
