Former Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker claims he "tongue kisses" Paris Hilton--not as a sign of affection--but simply as a greeting (Note: The above picture is of Paris and Travis greeting each other at Hyde in Los Angeles. Either Travis painted his face for Halloween or the syphillis he contracted is spreading much quicker than previously believed). Since Travis broke it off with his wife, former Miss USA Shanna Moakler, he's been a frequent companion of Paris:

He said: "Paris and I have tongue kissed before. It's not unusual for me to say hello to Paris and kiss her, but it's not like we are a couple or anything. When we see each other, we say hello. That's it."

If Paris greets her "friends" with a tongue kiss, how the hell does she greet her boyfriends? I imagine it's some combination of panties around the knees and ankles behind the head. She's classy like that. The story continues:

The rocker's affectionate friendship with Paris has wrecked his marriage to Shanna Moakler. The former beauty queen complained: "I saw pictures of him trying to stick his tongue down Paris's throat at the mansion. It was in very poor taste."

"Poor taste" is certainly an interesting choice of words considering the cake Shanna had made for her "divorce party" last weekend.
