Paris Hilton is baffled by rumors romantically linking her to oil heir Brandon Davis, insisting they are more like family than lovers. Hilton admits she was once Davis’ cousin through marriage, but the relationship has always been strictly platonic. She says, “Brandon used to be my cousin. My aunt married his uncle, so we were related for seven years and we’ve been best friends since we were about two. “We’ve been friends for 23 years. He’s like a brother. I’d never, ever, ever date him in a billion years.”
