Paris Hilton has decided to go from plastic cred to street cred, as she’s been busy getting ready to record her next album — which is going to be one of house music. While her debut album, which was a pop record and released in 2006, failed on the charts, Paris is hoping to hone in on a genre of music that’s being ignored, and then conquer it. That genre is house and according to Paris, she plans on becoming the “Queen of House Music.”

In order to get ready for taking on her new crown, Paris has been traveling the world. And while that’s not entirely unusual for the socialite, this time she’s been following big DJ names such as Afrojack and DeadMau5, hoping to gain some knowledge and experience working with the music. Last month, Paris tweeted that she was in France, working around the clock on “the sickest song with one of the most amazing producers.”

Paris has said that she hopes the album will be out by the end of the year but other than that, the details are few and far between. David Guetta was reported to be producing the album but Guetta’s record label has denied any such plans.

So why house music? Paris thinks it’s an area that hasn’t seen a lot of female talent. She wants to not only fill that void, but “become the most powerful female house music DJ of all time.” Hopefully her house album does better than her first, which became most well-known for having the artwork tampered with so that Paris appeared topless on the cover.
