Poor Paris... the price she must pay for being fabulous.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Letterman joked about it.

"She is going to be in a 12 X12 room with a toilet and a bed. There is also a small window, which is an upgrade at a Hilton."
 
I'd rather they force her to watch 'The Simple Life' marathon, Clockwork Orange style. Let the punishment fit the crime.
 
What is sad is that it made headlines - something about Paris is distraught! Oh, my! :rolleyes:

Well tough s**t. She violated probation, and she was probably given some slack because of who she is.

I don't know anyone who wouldn't be distraught about going to jail, which is basically a complete loss of one's independence.

I wouldn't say 'through the book at her', but she did the crime, now she's go to do the time.

I don't think her psychiatrist has been very effective up to now.

Why is Paris Hilton famous? There are plenty of other rich brats who don't get the attention that she does.

Because she's particularly hot.
 
She's not though, she's just extremely skinny.

If you like them rail thin and flat... sure.
 
They can't really lock her up with all the other inmates. They'd tear her apart like a skinny goldfish in a tank full of pirhana. Although that would make an interesting reality tv show. I bet Fox could make millions.
 
Her only real accomplishment is that she has proven that a person does not have to be poor to be white trash.
 
Let her go... she didn't know any better.

I agree with Huckleberry. If they put her in jail, she will be torn to pieces.
We have to use discretion... not just follow rules like unintelligent robots.
 
Where have you been? skinny = hot
When's the last time you saw a plus size model get any real attention?

No, I'd say she's mostly famous for being a bratty tramp. People watched her show for only one reason: it was funny to watch her be a bratty little *****.
 
I'm sorry but she is skinny, I like female athletes myself.

Does ANS ring a bell? She was a pretty meaty lady, and she got more press than Paris. I'd take the Serena Williams type over Paris any day, though Anna Kournikova is cute and hot. Maybe the hottest ticket in the UK is the page 3 girl Keeley Hazell (spelling?). She's slim, but she's got a couple of things going for her.
 
Well, it seems Paris has served her sentence. The original length of her sentence was supposed to be over 40 days. That was reduced to 20 something days. Now she has been released after spending only 3 days in jail.

Oh, I'm sure she has learned her lesson. :rolleyes:
 
What! Seriously. What!

Paris Hilton is not a model citizen and will suffer the consequences for her actions.

But these comments I read here and elsewhere are gross. It's disheartening to see damn near 99% of the population judge her so unfairly. Leave her alone.

I see and hear the People pointing their fingers at her, stroking tiny violins. They amass a gang of judges to pronounce her lower than all. And each time this happens, I roll my eyes, step up to the podium, and challenge the hater.

This woman has been held to ridiculous standards, like most celebrities and politicians. Whenever I dig a little bit, nearly every last human being who pronounces her a slutty little b**ch isn't any better at all, and often times quite worse for certain past actions. Has she become the opportunity for the guilty to pass the pepper?

She is not so evil or vile to warrant any ill words. Not a one! This "spoiled" woman works for a living. She produced her own television show that lasted more than one season. What's more, this program had her work with the public, and come into their homes. That's courageous.

Oh, people will point to her sex videos and purport that she released them intentionally, for publicity. So she's a slut. Or her lifestyle of superthin encourages other girls to live the unhealthy and dangerous lack of appetite. So she's a menace. Even her perfume: she never invented it, she has no right to have her name on it. She's a fraud.

They never stop, always looking for something to pounce on.

Leave her alone.

You don't have to throw her in a maximum security prison full of murderer's and rapists. There are plenty of prisons that are a lot more comfortable.

Not exactly - she was released to house arrest. She'll wear a tracking bracelet and can't go ouside her house for more than 1/2 hour per day. I don't agree with it either, but it isn't quite the same as being released outright.

Have you ever watched said television show? People base their opinions of her primarily on her conduct on that show, and her behavior is sub-human. Seriously, if her last name were not Hilton, with her attitude and work ethic, she'd probably be a crack whore.
 
Yes. I've watched it, thoroughly. And she's completely in character. It wouldn't be a television show if she didn't portray herself so. "The Professional Life?" Watch the Apprentice.

As for her work ethic, dude! She is extremely rich. She doesn't need to work. Yet she does. She acts, sings, entertains. And I hear that's hard work, less you want to judge all of our entertainers. Working when someone doesn't need to, that says a whole lot. I know lots of employers who would love to see that kind of attitude.

Dear Mallignamius,

Thanks for the support, but I think you can stop now.

Love, Paris

When you're under house arrest in a huge luxurious home that would be considered a resort by my standards and with a staff of servants. I would LOVE to be put under house arrest in her home for a few weeks and be catered to and pampered.

10-4. She pouted and they let her out, only to "serve" her time in luxury. "Jeeves, I'll have the filet mignon with truffles and steamed asparagus for dinner with a bottle of Mouton Rothschild 1945." If she had been an ordinary citizen, she'd be doing her time. Who says the US is a democracy? We are oligarchy ruled by the wealthy, who do not have to submit to the rule of law.

Yeah, but with her?
 
Deaf with sarcasm.

Oh look! A gilded butterfly!
 
I think you're all quite capable of declining judgment. I also think there's a greater sense of respect you create thus.
