PARIS BACK TO HER HARD-PARTYING WAYS!

Paris Hilton may have claimed that the 23 days she recently spent in jail for a probation violation had made her a new woman who wants to make a difference for the less fortunate, but it was the party girl of old who OK! saw celebrating into the early morning hours at Hollywood's Les Deux nightclub on July 6 - racking up a bar tab of $16,000!Partying like a rock star with a crowd of friends, including her sister Nicky, the 26-year-old celebutante drank, danced and canoodled, all while a mob scene of curious club-goers surrounded her booth, trying to catch a glimpse of the infamous blonde.'Paris went in to party, and party she did!' an eyewitness tells OK!. The Simple Life star, her 23-year-old sister and several other girls were all dropped off at a rear entrance of the club by the hotel heiress' bodyguard/driver. 'Paris was dancing away on the black-leather cushions of her booth, along with her friends and Nicky,' another witness adds. 'She looked really happy to be free from the confines of that tiny jail cell.' And Paris wasted no time in getting wasted, both sources tell OK!. She ordered and downed two shots of Jaegermeister within her first 10 minutes there. They were followed by four Screwdrivers, vodkas over ice with orange juice and two shots of Grey Goose vodka; and toward the end of her stay, two shots of Patron tequila, with lime wedges on the side.'By the time Paris got ready to leave, she was pretty drunk,' the eyewitness tells OK!. Toward the end of the night, she was sitting on the top edge of her booth, making-out with a dark-haired guy who was sporting a couple days growth of beard. While they kissed, Paris was holding up a brown fedora hat, and they were kissing behind the hat, so people couldn't see. But still, sitting up high like that on the back of her booth, with 200 people clamoring to watch her every move, if she was trying to be coy, it didn't work!'Paris' party, however, was nearly marred by violence. At 1:50 a.m., an obviously inebriated customer sitting less than 15 feet away from Paris shook up a bottle of Cristal champagne and sprayed it all over the crowd! 'Some of the Champagne got on Paris, Nicky and their friends,' the eyewitness says. A few of the guys there with Paris charged the man, but club bouncers raced in and escorted him out before a fight began. Photo: Wireimage.com
