Paris Hilton's ex is already chasing Lindsay Lohan - just days after they split.

Greek shipping heir Stavros Niarchos - who parted company with the stunning socialite earlier this week - is reportedly keen to hook up with the 'Mean Girls' star after they partied together in Beverly Hills last weekend.

An insider told America's People magazine: "He has been calling her all the time."

However, around the same time, Paris was seen getting close with Arizona Cardinals American football player Matt Leinart, at Los Angeles club Shag.

A partygoer said: "They seemed really into each other. He was very touchy-feely."

The sportsman's spokesperson denies he is dating Paris, while her publicist, Elliot Mintz, has played down romantic rumours, saying: "She knows Matt, she likes Matt. They are friends. I don't want to go any further than that. They have known each other a while."

Paris' break-up from Stavros comes just a month after she threw him a surprise 21st birthday party at her plush Hollywood Hills home.

One partygoer recalled: "They were inseparable that night, holding hands and kissing."
