Prison-bound socialite Paris Hilton has been dropped by her record label after lacklustre sales of debut pop album "Paris" failed to impress music execs.

The 26 year old, who is heading to jail next week for a 23-day stint after violating her probation following a 2006 drink-driving arrest, is said to be devastated over the decision.

The company is thought to be disappointed after investing $250,000 in a video for single Stars Are Blind - which reached number 18 in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 charts - and a world promotional tour that brought in less that half a million record sales.

Hilton's second single Nothing In This World barely registered on the charts, reaching number 89 on the Billboard Hot 100 Pop Charts and the LP vanished after a brief appearance at number six in the Billboard album charts after selling 77,000 copies.

A representative for Warner Brothers said, "We are not expecting any new Paris Hilton material in the foreseeable future."
