Paris Hilton CDs doctored

Record chain HMV said Sunday it had pulled from shelves several copies of Hilton's "Paris" album that appeared to have been doctored by British graffiti artist and prankster Banksy.The doctored version includes a topless image of the celebrity heiress, as well as a picture in which she sports the head of a dog. A sticker advertises the album's "hits" -- "Why am I Famous?" "What Have I Done?" and "What Am I For?"Instead of Hilton's perky pop, the CD inside features 40 minutes of remixed music by a musician identified only as "DM."Banksy's spokeswoman, Jo Brooks, said the artist had hidden 500 copies of the altered album in record stores across Britain."They're very subtly done and do look like the original albums," Brooks said.
