Injured Cristiano Ronaldo has been resting his crocked ankle - by going on a bender at an LA club.
The Manchester United striker, recovering from an ankle operation, splashed out more than £10,000 on wine, vodka and bottles of Cristal champagne after arriving at trendy nightclub Villa with two friends.
Ronaldo and his mates were met by the four models, who sat with him at a private table in one corner.
As the booze flowed, the 23-year-old got into the party spirit. He even threw his crutches to the ground and tried to dance on his uninjured foot - although it turned into more of an ungainly shuffle. So he ripped open his white shirt instead - as the models squealed with delight.
The Portuguese star has angered Man Utd fans by angling for a transfer to Real Madrid. But at Villa he was tapped up by one of the world's most famous clubbers, Paris Hilton.
Pouting Paris pushed her way through a bevy of admirers to flirt with him. But Ronaldo, who split with girlfriend Nereida Gallardo earlier this week, gave her the brush off. One clubber said: "Paris saw Ronaldo and immediately slithered past the dozens of women trying to get his attention.
"Then she climbed over one of his mates and planted herself next to him. She was flirting with him but he wasn't interested. He was just happy drinking. She looked a bit put out."
Clubgoer Katy Mitchell said: "Paris's cleavage looked amazing. Whatever bra she had on was doing the trick because she looked way curvier than usual.
"And she was making herself even more busty by pressing her arms together as she flirted."
Ronaldo flew to Los Angeles on Tuesday to attend sports awards. His first port of call was a steak restaurant in West Hollywood, where he drank four glasses of red wine.
Ronaldo and friends then headed to the club, where he drank a number of vodka and sodas before switching to Û800 bottles of Cristal.
As the night wore on Ronaldo ordered more bottles of champagne before trying to dance. The clubber said: "He put his crutches on the floor and got up next to his table.
"He was clearly wanting to dance but because of his injury it was more of a shuffle.
"At one point he ripped open his shirt. The girls loved it and were cheering. He looked quite drunk."
Ronaldo left after about three hours in a stretch limo.
Last night he was due at the ESPY Awards - where he is up for Best Male International Athlete.
