Paris Hilton has got her own clothing lines, fragrances, records, books, legions of fans and much, much more. And now she can count a motorcycle racing team among them.

That's right, the celebrity heiress has launched her very own MotoGP 125cc team. The venture is called SuperMartxé VIP by Paris Hilton, and takes its name from the dance party series of the same name in Ibiza. The event organizers are sponsoring the team, and when they approached Hilton with an endorsement deal, she was apparently so excited that she bought into the team as a part owner as well.

The starlet won't be riding the bikes in the races, but is contracted to appear at five of the races on the calendar for the upcoming season, which will feature eighteen races from Qatar to Indianapolis, England to Japan and everywhere in between.
