"Screwed" is a song by Paris Hilton from her debut album, Paris, written by Kara DioGuardi and Greg Wells. It was planned to be the debut single from the album, with a version being leaked in mid-2004, but plans were scrapped as the album was retooled and legal issues arose. Since then, the song has been continuously rumoured to be a single. Hilton claims that the song is about a girl who is in love but knows that her lover is not her soulmate.

[edit] Song information

"Screwed" was planned to be Hilton's first single. It was leaked to the internet in August 2004, and a remix by Alex G leaked in early 2005.

The song was also recorded and planned for release by Haylie Duff. Hilton and Duff went through legal battles for the song in 2005.[1] Unfortunately for Duff, Hilton got the song.

Due to the early leak of the song, Hilton has since chosen "Stars are Blind" as her first single instead.

Hilton re-recorded the song in 2006. The version that appears on the album has a different arrangement to the leaked version, with a more 80's-influenced rock sound to it.
