Paris Hilton & Stavros Niarchos
Paris Hilton and her boyfriend, Greek shipping heir Stavros Niarchos, have split, Hilton's publicist Lori Glass, tells PEOPLE. "I confirm that she's split with him.
They are no longer a couple. I don't know the exact day they split." Hilton, 25, and Niarchos, 21, began dating last year.
As for rumors of a possible relationship with newly drafted Arizona Cardinal Matt Leinart, "She knows Matt, she likes Matt. They are friends," Elliot Mintz, another publicist for Hilton, tells PEOPLE. "I don't want to go any further than that. They have known each other a while." Last month Hilton threw Niarchos a surprise 21st birthday bash at her Hollywood Hills pad. Some 100 guests turned out for the party, during which "Stavros did back flips into the pool and jumped from one end to the other," said a guest.
"Everyone gasped and begged him not to continue because his stunts looked dangerous." The happy couple were inseparable that night, holding hands and kissing. Niarchos was previously involved with Mary-Kate Olsen, whom he left for Hilton. For her part, Hilton was previously engaged to Paris Latsis, also a Greek shipping heir.

Keith Richards Released from Hospital
Keith Richards
Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards is rolling again – making "a speedy recovery" after being injured while on vacation, says the band's spokeswoman.
Adds Auckland's Ascot Hospital duty manager Geoff Sparks: "I can categorically confirm Mr. Richards ... is no longer a patient in this hospital. He has been discharged," reports the Associated Press.
Richards, 62, was flown to Auckland, New Zealand, last week for observation after sustaining a "mild concussion" while on vacation in Fiji, says the rep. Various news reports have said that Richards fell from a coconut tree, a Jet Ski or a combination of the two.
The Rolling Stones have not made an official announcement as to the cause of Richards's mishap but say that the European leg of the band's world tour would begin, as scheduled, on May 27 in Barcelona.

Sopranos Chef Lands in Hot Water
John Ventimiglia
Actor John Ventimigli – who plays restaurant owner Artie Bucco on The Sopranos – was arrested for drunken driving and cocaine possession on Monday near his Brooklyn home, authorities tell the New York Post.
The actor admitted to cops he drank four glasses of wine at a Manhattan eatery before getting behind the wheel of his 2004 Volkswagen Jetta and driving home.
Police say they observed Ventimiglia, 42, weaving in and out of traffic without the headlights on at 1 a.m. The police report described him as unsteady on his feet and smelling of alcohol. Prosecutors say his blood-alcohol content was .12 (the legal limit is .08)
Police also say that Ventimiglia had a plastic bag with cocaine residue in his rear pocket, reports the Post. He was charged with DWI, reckless driving, operating outside the lane, operating without headlights and criminal possession of a controlled substance at Brooklyn Criminal Court.
After his arraignment he was released on his own recognizance. Ventimiglia's lawyer, Benjamin Petrofsky, did not return the newspaper's call for comment.
In other Sopranos news, Louis Gross, 23, who plays Tony Soprano's muscled-up bodyguard on the HBO mob show, was arrested on Sunday for allegedly breaking into a home in Queens, N.Y., and burglarizing the residence, reports New York's Daily News.
Gross also stands accused of roughing up a downtown Manhattan clothing merchant in February after allegedly attempting to leave the store with a bag of clothes, says the paper.
"I don't know nothing," Gross tells the News. "I'm innocent. I'm always innocent." If convicted of the break-in, the actor faces a year behind bars, and 15 months for the store incident.
