LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Paris Hilton, the 22-year-old socialite whose unclothed exploits made headlines

last year, found new, fully-dressed fame on Tuesday.

The hotel heiress was named worst dressed woman of 2003 by Hollywood\'s self-appointed

fashion guru Mr. Blackwell, topping a list that included singers Britney Spears (news), Madonna (news - web sites),

Shania Twain (news) and Courtney Love (news).


Hilton leapt from minor socialite to most-talked about Internet

celebrity late last year courtesy of a private video tape showing her having sex with her one-time boyfriend Rick

Salomon.


The reality television program \"The Simple Life,\" in which Hilton and friend Nicole Ritchie

swapped their lavish life for a rural farm in Arkansas, completed the transformation.


\"Grab the blinders,

here comes Paris. From cyber disgrace to red carpet chills -- she\'s the vapid Venus of Beverly Hills!\" quipped

Blackwell.


Second place on the closely-followed annual list went to Madonna and Britney Spears, who Blackwell

dubbed the \"Kissin Cousins of Couture Crimes\" after their much publicized smooch on a music awards show last

year.


Country singer Shania Twain, in third place, was christened \"Calamity Twain\" for her \"buckled

bombs and country-fried kitsch\" while in fourth place actress Diane Keaton (news)\'s red carpet comeback, thanks

to the comedy \"Something\'s Gotta Give,\" was derided as \"dowdy, dumpy and frumpy.\"


Blackwell, a

one-time designer of gowns for Jayne Mansfield (news), Jane Russell (news) and Dorothy Lamour, conceded in a

statement that despite the many fashion fiascoes of 2003 \"unlike years past, coming up with 10 Titans of Fashion

Terror was much harder than usual.\"


Many of his perennial victims -- Cher, Barbra Streisand (news) and

various members of the British royal family -- failed to make it to the list.


As Blackwell noted \"if someone

like (Britain\'s) Duchess of York (also known as Fergie) can look fit and fabulous, hope springs eternal for us

all!.\"


The worst-dressed list was rounded out by pop star Jessica Simpson (news) (5th), singer Celine Dion

(news) (6th) \"a half-sequined scarecrow, half-gaudy acrobat,\" rap star Missy Elliott (7th), actress Melanie

Griffith (news) (8th), singer Courtney Love (9th), and actress Lara Flynn Boyle (news), who was derided for turning

up to an awards show dressed as a ballerina.


On the opposite end of Blackwell\'s sharp tongue were the

\"fabulous fashion independents\" of 2003, led by actresses Nicole Kidman (news), Jennifer Garner (news), Diane

Lane (news) and Salma Hayek (news), and talk-show queen Oprah Winfrey (news).

In her

\"Simple Life\" show she wore a lot of Juicy Couture which is very cute and very in style.

I

don\'t think \"Simple Life\" has made it here yet (I\'m sure it will), but Paris has worn some very sexy

clothes at times. She\'s also worn some shockers at times. She\'s lucky enough to have a body she can use to get

away with some of them and look great.
...a pitty she wears so much make up and is such a poser.

Her make up,

hair extensions and way too dark spray on tan is a bit much. She also doesn\'t seem to know when it is not

appropriate to wear some of her skimpier stuff, but she does have some great club wear.

If she subbed

for Christina, would anyone notice?

Getting out of a

car without panties takes technique though. She doesn\'t have it.

Give \'em both the same sunless
