Rod Stewart has defended Simple Life star and socialite Paris Hilton.
The rocker described Hilton, who is friends with his daughter Kimberley, as a "polite" girl who is treated badly by the press.
"I always found Paris to be extremely polite, at least she is when she's around me. She's a very nice girl, I think sometimes she gets a bad rap," Stewart told WENN.
"She enjoys her publicity. [But] she'll grow out of it I think too. When she finds the right guy in her life she'll get everything in perspective and leave the press alone, and the press will leave her alone hopefully."
