Gossip & News about Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton released from jail: US heiress Paris Hilton has been released from jail in Los Angeles after serving 24 days for violating probation on a driving ban.

Hilton’s parents Kathy and Rick arrived to pick her up shortly after 0800 BST.

Reporters were camped outside the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, California since Monday.

The 26-year-old, sentenced to 45 days on 3 June, was released early due to crowded jail conditions and time off for good behaviour.

She is scheduled to appear on Larry King’s CNN talk show on Wednesday.

The network has said she will not be paid for her appearance, which has replaced a planned interview with filmmaker Michael Moore.

Hilton was briefly freed on medical grounds earlier this month but was sent back to jail by a court.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department had not revealed what time the reality TV star would be released.

Her West Hollywood neighbours, however, are reportedly bracing themselves for an influx of paparazzi and TV crews.

WildStarz: Paris Out of Prison Already … WTF???: ”
It has been confirmed that Paris Hilton has been released from the Los Angeles jail to serve the remainder of her sentence confined to her home. Steve Whitmore of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s office said Hilton had been ‘reassigned’ but he declined to identify her medical condition for privacy reasons. [Herpes?]

‘My understanding is that she’s confined to her home with a monitoring device, she cannot leave that facility,’ said Whitmore. ‘She will fulfil the remainder of her time confined to her home.’ That means Paris will have a new cute ankle bracelet to show off for 40 days. What a wimp.

UPDATE:
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Paris Hilton’s medical condition was purely psychological and that she was in peril of having a nervous breakdown, and that’s why she was released early this morning. Psychiatrist Charles Sophy visited Hilton in jail yesterday and the day before. We’re told after Sophy’s visit yesterday, word was passed to the Sheriff that Hilton’s mental state was fragile and she was at risk. If your wondering who Dr. Sophy is…well Dr. Charles Sophy is a Beverly Hills psychiatrist that had a role in the Michael Jackson molestation case in 2003. Hmmmm…”

mediabistro.com: FishbowlLA: “Paris Hilton Gets Low Scores for Trust, Aspiration, but Appeal Rating Climbing

Paris Hilton turns out to be more appealing than we thought. According to Davie Brown Entertainment, a Los Angeles-based marketing agency, her recent sentence hasn’t hurt her too much:

Since last February, her appeal, influence, notice, and position as a trendsetter and endorser actually improved, albeit only slightly, among consumers

Head of DBI Talent, Jeff Chown, (and yes, that’s the correct spelling), said, in an understatement, that her aspiration level dipped after the whole jail thing:”

The World Claps Its Hands as Paris Hilton Gets Cage Sentence at That Other Blog - The Latest Gossip, Box Office and Entertainment News: “Karma is such a bitch. Celebrities tend to think that they rise above the allowed limits of the law simply because they’ve got money and usually get to skip a line or two here or there. What’s worst about this case though is that Paris Hilton is not even a real celebrity - she only gets away with it. She’s an idiotic dumb blonde who believes she’s better than others because of her family name. With that being said, what doesn’t surprise me is that she is getting caged for committing the ‘crime’ she is most known for - being a stupid idiot and allowing herself to be surrounded by stupid idiots.Anybody who can spell the name Einstein and who’s serious about themselves and their so called ‘careers’ would never put such sensitive issues as knowing the status of their license on the hands of the enablers publicists.Elliot Mintz gets laid off and apparently takes the blame for what happened. That is fucking hilarious. She’s a spoiled little girl who has other people run her life for her and all she does is smile and talk like an absolute idiot.

I’m so glad that the law finally caught up with her insolence. It had just gone too far. It’s also good to see that she was made into an example.”

CBC.ca Arts - Paris Hilton sentenced to jail for probation violation: “Hotel heiress and celebrity socialite Paris Hilton has been sentenced to 45 days in jail for violating probation related to a reckless driving case.

Hilton, 26, must go to the Century Regional Detention Center, Los Angeles County’s jailhouse for women, on June 5. She will not be allowed any work release, furloughs, use of an alternative jail or any electronic monitoring in lieu of jail, Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer ruled after a hearing.

The judge ruled that she was in violation of the terms of her probation in her alcohol-related reckless driving case.

Hilton had said she was unaware her licence was suspended, and thought she was allowed to drive for work purposes.

She said that when an officer who stopped her in January made her sign a document stating her licence was suspended, she thought he was mistaken and did not actually look at the document.

‘I’m very sorry and from now on I’m going to pay complete attention to everything. I’m sorry and I did not do it on purpose at all,’ she told the judge before he announced her sentence.

ABC News: Stars Not Living Up to Paychecks?: “Overpaid, Underperforming Celebs

All those frustrated with the million-dollar paychecks celebrities take home should be pleased that The American, a new business magazine, compiled a list of overpaid, underperforming stars. These celebrities rake in major moola for what seems like a meager amount of work.

No doubt Paris Hilton deserves something for her attempts to sing and act, but $7 million? According to The American, that’s what the party-hopping princess takes in. At left, Paris Hilton waits to sign autographs at the Chicago Midwest Beauty Show in Rosemont, Ill., March 4, 2007. “

TeenHollywood.com - Hilton’s Laundry Basket To Be Auctioned: “A laundry basket which belonged to hotel heiress Paris Hilton has so far failed to attract bidders on internet auction website eBay.

The clothes hamper was taken from the socialite’s West Hollywood home and according to the site’s post is ‘in excellent condition… No DNA found inside, but maybe you have a better investigator’.

Hilton’s spokesman was shocked by the bizarre sale, telling PageSix, ‘I just cannot think of a single thing to say.’
