When Paris Hilton sat down with Larry King shortly after completing her 23 long days in the pokey, she recalled her jailhouse strip-search as "the most humiliating experience of my life."

Paris' birthday suit No. 1

Thankfully, at least to the multitude of revelers who packed Pure nightclub in Las Vegas Saturday night to help celebrate her 27th birthday, the spotlight-addicted starlet proved she wasn't suffering from a case of post-traumatic duds-doffing disorder.

Paris hooked herself into several garter belt-accented skanky skimpy getups, cavorting and carefully unzipping select lingerie items as she performed -- and we use that term generously (it was her birthday, after all) -- onstage with the Pussycat Dolls.

"Are you guys ready to get sexy tonight?" she teased the audience.

In video captured by the brave folks at TMZ, Hilton can be seen clumsily writhing around in a revolving champagne glass with a feather boa; clumsily writhing around on the side of the stage and against a pillar; clumsily running her hands over her assets; and clumsily baby-talking into a microphone while dressed up as S&M Barbie.

"This was all about being confident, being sexy and showing it and being a real girl," she tells Robin Leach's Luxe Life of turning the big 2-7 while wearing pleather- and crystal-encrusted bra and panty sets. "This was the best birthday I've ever celebrated."

Paris' birthday suit No. 2

Not surprisingly, Paris appears to have suffered some selective memory loss when it comes to her post-jailhouse pledge to use her fame for good, although if she needs a nudge in the right direction, she should consider devoting some time to the SPCA.

Just before the box-office-bombing "The Hottie & the Nottie" star shimmied for attention in Sin City (and supposedly swapped spit with a D-list starlet), the Los Angeles Department of Animal Services was paying her a house call over her furry menagerie, reports TMZ.

No, the visit wasn't prompted by another chomping incident involving her fed-up pet kinkajou, Baby Luv, or the recent kerfuffle over her cat Prada, whom she reportedly failed to reclaim after a maid dropped him off to be neutered on Jan. 30 (the slightly less frisky feline is now in a foster home, according to People).

Instead, a staffer tells TMZ the organization received a complaint about Paris after she told Ellen DeGeneres last week that she had -- hold on to your Snausages, people -- 17 dogs (seems that unless you're a breeder, you shouldn't have more than three).

"They keep having babies," explained Hilton, who was voted the worst celebrity dog owner a couple years back, "and I feel bad about giving them away."

(On the plus side, we can at least breathe a sigh of relief that Paris' pack of pups isn't part of some nefarious plot to make a Chihuahua fur coat a la Cruella de Vil.)

A horrified Ellen, perhaps still smarting from Iggy-gate and worried about blowback from Bob Barker, urged her to have her pets spayed and neutered, and she assured her they now were, but the host wasn't buying it.

"Well, two of them weren't," Paris admitted.

Anyhoo, when Animal Services showed up at Hilton's Los Angeles home on Tuesday, they discovered neither she nor her pets were there because the place was being renovated. They left a note with the maid.

Paris' people, however, tell TMZ that all her four-legged companions are now in the care of animal handlers.
