Heiress Paris Hilton has denied allegations that she was paid 1 million dollars to party with mysterious billionaire Jho Low in St. Tropez.

Rumours were rife that the big-spending Malaysian was paying Hilton to have her lounge topless on his yacht and spray champagne with him at spots including exclusive club Les Caves du Roy.

But Hilton’s representative denied allegations.

“They are friends. Jho has invited Paris and her sister, Nicky, out to St. Tropez as friends. He has not paid her in any way, although he is extremely generous,” The New York Post quoted Hilton’s rep as saying.
