Paris Hilton throws herself on Usher after bumping into him in New York... but he's not quite as excited



A shopping spree at is no big deal for Paris Hilton.



But running into Usher during a shopping spree is apparently a very big deal, as the socialite proved on Thursday.



The 33-year-old blonde threw an overjoyed hug on the singer, who appeared slightly less thrilled than she was, when she saw him outside Barney's in New York City.

Fancy seeing you here: Paris Hilton threw herself on Usher in an excitable hug when she ran into him outside Barney's in New York City on Thursday

Paris' face visibly lit up when she found herself face to face with the Climax singer after they apparently had the same idea about where to shop.



The hotel heiress threw herself on him with a giant smile on her face.



Usher politely returned the hug but appeared to be sporting significantly less enthusiasm than his blonde friend.

Is it over yet? Paris went in for the kill but her dog Peter Pan didn't look too enthused

Peter Pan - who is Paris' male chihuahua - was a reluctant spectator to the chance encounter, waiting dutifully by his mother's side whilst wearing a garment which read: 'I'm one sexy b****.'



Paris was decked out in all-white, with not a single hint of colour except for the hot red car she zipped around in.



A crisply clean sundress with cute capped sleeves was her cenetrepiece, whilst white-framed sunglasses and a white watch kept the colour scheme going.

Not too disappointed: The hotel heiress looked chuffed as she and her chihuahua - who wore an outfit saying 'I'm one sexy b****' - made their ay back to the car

She elevated herself high off the ground in bright white stiletto heels, and pulled her long blonde tresses back into an elegant half-up 'do.



Carrying her essentials in a white leather handbag, Paris made her way into the upscale department store with her beloved pooch on a leash by her side.



The destination of the day was Kitson, a stylish fashion and gift boutique, where Paris appeared to become lost in the array of interesting stock.

He knows how it's done: Peter Pan once again had to wait while his socialite mother posed for photos

A can of pepper spray took the leggy blonde's fancy.



She peered at the pink can designed for warding off predators by temporarily blinding them, but whether or not she purchased it is unknown.



Paris also seemed to appreciate a pair of pajama pants covered with prints of cats, even holding them up against her slim frame to check the sizing situation.

Taking her interest? The star appeared rather interested in the item, designed to fend off predators and the like when approached

She proved her reading capabilities by flipping through a book, before picking up an awkwardly large pair of cat-eye sunglasses.



In order to avoid any impulse purchases without first trying the product fully, Paris took a selfie whilst wearing the shades inside the store.



It must have been a successful shopping trip for the daughter of the hotel mogul, because she was later seen exiting with a shopping bag advertising Barney's.

Meow: She appeared to be particularly interested in a pair of pajama pants with cats printed on them

Perhaps not, Paris: The leggy blonde tried on a particularly unsightly pair of cat eye sunglasses

Over the past weeks, Paris has been living up to the cliche of the lifestyles of the rich and famous - first partying at the Cannes Film Festival in France, then heading to the Monaco Grand Prix before jetting off on a quick promotional trip to China.



On Wednesday, the former Simple Life star was present at the opening of Millions of Milkshakes in Shanghai.



She made her own milkshake named the Princess Paris Shake, and was joined by Zendaya and Chinese stars Xiaoming Huang and Angelababy.

How it's done: The socialite took a snap of herself wearing the enormous frames

Looking for treats: Peter Pan trailed along behind Paris in the upscale store, surely used to this
