Paris Hilton has bought the plot next to Marilyn Monroe's grave to bury her pet goat. The 25-year-old has reportedly booked a plot in Hollywood's Pierce Bros Westwood Village Memorial Park next to her screen idol. It is also alleged that she has booked a gospel choir to perform at a private funeral at Los Angeles' International Church of Christ.

A source told Daily Star newspaper: "It's absolutely disgusting. Paris booked the plot for a 'Billy Hilton'.

"Everybody was very understanding because they presumed it was one of her relatives. But it has transpired that it's just an old goat. Normal people are content to bury their pets in the garden and be done with it. But not Paris. This is one of the most prestigious cemeteries in the world, it's not for animals. It should be reserved for superstars."

Hollywood legends Truman Capote, Dean Martin and Jack Lemmon are also buried in the cemetery.

The animal loving hotel heiress has many pets including two chihuahuas, a ferret, a monkey (that has bit her recently) and a goat called Billy.
