MUMBAI: Hotel heiress, movie actress, reality television star, model, author, perfumer, nightclub impresario and style icon Paris Hilton will add "pop diva" to her résumé with the release of her self-titled debut album for Warner Bros. Records on 22 August.

Hilton collaborated with several top-notch producers to give her club-ready dance pop an urban edge, including hip-hop's reigning hit-maker Scott Storch (50 Cent, Beyoncé), Jonathan "J.R." Rotem (Rihanna), and Dr. Luke (Pink, Kelly Clarkson). 

She also worked with songwriting heavyweights Kara DioGuardi (Gwen Stefani, Christina Aguilera, Ashlee Simpson), Billy Steinberg (Madonna, Cyndi Lauper), and Sheppard Solomon (Natalie Imbruglia), as well as rappers Jadakiss and Fat Joe (on Fightin' Over Me). Grammy-winning engineers Tony Maserati (Black Eyed Peas, Beyoncé) and Serban Ghenea (Kelly Clarkson, Justin Timberlake, Pink) mixed the album, which was recorded over the course of the last year in Miami and Los Angeles, states an official release.

From the bona fide hit single Stars Are Blind, which is currently at number 16 on Billboard's Pop chart, to the club banger Turn It Up to the infectious I Want You, Hilton's debut flaunts the knowing pop smarts of her idols Madonna, Gwen Stefani, and Blondie's Deborah Harry, adds the release.
