MANILA, Philippines - Paris Hilton is suffering a new bout of cellphone drama. The heiress-turned-TV star reportedly lost two mobile devices on a flight to the Philippines for a visit to promote a hotel resort.
Television footage showed Hilton combing through a bag looking upset while she was surrounded by airline staff at the Manila airport late Sunday after arriving from Dubai.
Manila radio station DZBB reported that airport and airline authorities are investigating.
In 2005, hackers gained access to Hilton's Sidekick cellphone and famously splashed the private mobile numbers of her celebrity friends on line.
The latest loss apparently didn't leave Hilton completely cut off - she greeted fans with a tweet "I love you" in the local Tagalog language.
