:roll: Right , that's yet to be seen! Will be interesting to see if she ever serves one day of her sentenced 45 days for driving on a suspended license (was it DUI?) and violating her probation.

I smell another reality show in the making. :roll:

Oh, I think she will serve every second. Maybe she will get a cool prison tatoo.

this is what "hot" is?

Hilton pleaded no contest in January to reckless driving stemming from a Sept. 7 arrest in Hollywood. Police said she appeared intoxicated and failed a field sobriety test. She had a blood-alcohol level of .08 percent, the level at which an adult driver is in violation of the law.

She was sentenced to 36 months probation, alcohol education and $1,500 in fines.

So she was driving recklessly, while loaded -- drunk driving is some of the most indulgent, dangerous and truly criminal behavior we have in our society. So instead of being grateful to get a second (or third?) chance, two other traffic stops and failure to enroll in the mandated alcohol education program landed her back in court -- and this why she's going to jail.

As Ron White said, "You can't fix stupid." At least she'll have 45 days to think it over.

whatever will she do without her cell phone and her bentley ?

i saw on tmz where another "star" from lost got sentenced to the same prison for 60 days for dui, and only served 2 hrs then they set her free due to "overcrowding" - i am guessing the same thing happens to the poor little rich girl.

No, seriously, I read that the judge was some kinda pissed that she showed up late to court and her mom was acting out in the courtroom. I think this is going to 'stick'. :lol:

According to the AP, "Hilton, who parlayed her name and relentless partying into worldwide notoriety, must go to jail on June 5 and she will not be allowed any work release, furloughs, use of an alternative jail or electronic monitoring in lieu of jail, Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer ruled after a hearing."

I say throw the book at her. She's one of those people whose 15 minutes of fame should have been up a LONG time ago.

Ditto.
It could be the best thing that ever happens to her.

Paris' Jail Stint Likely to Add Allure
May 6, 2:55 PM EST

By Sandy Cohen
Associated Press

LOS ANGELES -- Paris Hilton is so pampered she doesn't read her mail.

"I have people who do that for me," she told a judge.

Legal documents and traffic citations elude her.

"I just sign what people tell me to sign," she testified.

Facing a 45-day jail sentence _ and perhaps her first brush with accountability _ could be a reality check for Hilton. But regardless of how she handles it, it may make her more popular than ever.

"It will actually increase her star appeal in a very sick and demented way," said longtime publicist Michael Levine. "There's a segment of our society that's somehow engaged in the soap opera that is Paris Hilton, and this a very compelling plot line in the soap opera."

A judge ordered the socialite to report to a county jail in suburban L.A. by June 5 to serve 45 days for violating the terms of her probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case. Her attorney has said he will appeal.

That only prolongs the publicity, said Roger Gillott, whose public relations firm, Gillott Communications, specializes in crisis management.

"If she wants to put this behind her and come off looking remorseful or repentant, then she should just serve her time as quietly as possible," he said. "The more she protests, the more she claims she was innocent and doesn't know what she's doing, that she never reads her legal papers, the more she portrays an image of someone who doesn't pay close attention and thinks they are above being held accountable."

The 26-year-old hotel heiress, who parlayed her party lifestyle into worldwide fame, told the judge Friday that she didn't have time to talk with her attorneys about her probation. That dismissive attitude is part of her appeal, said veteran publicist David Brokaw.

"The premise of her fame is being naughty," he said. "This is a career move for her. It simply fuels the fascination. She can only win with this."

Some celebrities have fared well after a stay in the graybar hotel.
Martha Stewart started a TV show after her stint behind bars. Robert Downey Jr. rebounded with a recurring TV role that led back to the big screen. Others, including Bobby Brown, Heidi Fleiss and Fatty Arbuckle, weren't as fortunate.

Bad behavior means big publicity for Hilton, Levine said, noting that she wasn't maligned when her homemade sex tape surfaced on the Internet. Instead she became more famous than before.

"This is a girl who has total disregard for the rules of our society," Levine said. "And she's been rewarded for it."

Time behind bars isn't likely to impart any lessons for Hilton, said West Hollywood psychologist Jeremy Ritzlin. Jail time doesn't equal rehabilitation and the club-hopping Hilton would need extensive therapy to make lasting changes in her life, he said.

"It's going to make her very unhappy because she's not used to this. She couldn't buy her way out of it," he said. "But one 45-day trip to jail is not going to change her behavior."

Hilton's plethora of professional pursuits _ which include a namesake perfume and handbag line, a fledgling music career and a starring role in the reality show "The Simple Life" _ can probably survive 45 days without her.

"Production for 'The Simple Life Goes to Camp' wrapped in early April and will premiere Memorial Day," as planned, the E! network said in a statement. "We wish Paris all the best as she deals with this difficult time."

Hilton's fans filled her MySpace page with words of support over the weekend. Her spokesman, Elliot Mintz, declined to comment.

Now if she was smart, she would talk the Discovery Channel into doing a 60 day show on her from jail. "Life Behind Bars." You know that more people would tune into that trainwreck than the NBA Playoffs.

Paris = Parissite. Name one thing she has accomplished on her own to make any contribution to society. She's a member of the lucky sperm club. She has the same thing all trust fund babies have in common, her filthy rich parents conceived. I believe she thought she was above the law, by her birthright and blood lines.

I hate when she says how hard she's worked. :bang: I avoid the tv when she's on anymore. And would someone please save her poor little dog.

:lolabove: So true! Can you just imagine the poor criminal that must share any space with her in "jail"? On the brighter side, she can take the strip search and turn it into another video.

"I told the truth," said Hilton, according to Reuters (and as was first reported by TMZ.) "I feel that I was treated unfairly, and that the sentence is both cruel and unwarranted. I don't deserve this."

Hilton, however, did foretell of her punishment in an interview she gave beforehand to Harper's Bazaar, for its June issue. "I think I get in more trouble just because of who I am," she says, as reported in Monday's New York Daily News.

"The cops do it all the time," she is quoted as saying. "They'll just pull me over to hit on me. It's really annoying. They're like, 'What's your phone number? Want to go to dinner?' "

Despite her current legal woes, Hilton says that police rarely write her up. "They just pull me over, and the paparazzi, of course, take a picture," she complains. "All the time. I have so many cops' business cards."

See I don't think that's believable. She doesn't eat. :biggrin:
