RIGHT ON. Exactly. The reasons that non-celebrities shouldn't drive drunk are the same exact reasons that celebrities shouldn't drive drunk. The consequences need to be the same. Isn't it that simple?

She literally could have killed somebody, on more than one occasion, and she blatantly behaved as though the rules just don't apply to her because she's fabulous PARIS, by continuing to drive under a suspended license (and may have blown off a court appearance too, though I don't follow this at all carefully, so I could be wrong on that detail). She just obviously thought that her money and her lawyers could get her out of anything, and it's high time we proved her wrong.

Wouldn't the public be OUTRAGED if she, or another privileged celebrity, actually killed someone driving drunk? The fact that she did not is pure & absolute LUCK. I admit this is a personally touchy issue for me, but honestly: Think about that.

It's only luck that someone was not killed. A human life, or multiple lives, could have ended because of her apathetic irresponsibility, families could be grieving unbearably without any hope of ever having their son/daughter/mother/father/sibling/spouse back, and people are worried that she doesn't have a pillow for a few weeks?

Shiver, for one and only time in your entire spoiled-rotten-to-the-core life. Shiver.

Tell it baby! I couldn't have said it better!

She needs to see a shrink after 36 HOURS? Oh, poor Paris, she's in a cell all by herself and all she gets are a pillow and three blankets. Boo freakin hoo. She's lucky she's not in the general population, then she'd REALLY need a shrink.

Bitch is born into more money than all of this board will see combined in their entire lives, and what does she do with it? Becomes a spoiled attention whore who flaunts the law, and then when she is punished for it (and rightfully so), she has to call a freakin shrink.

GMAFB.

Why is this funny to you? I wonder how long you'd last in jail.

I'd last longer than 36 hours!

And I've spent time in the pokey, it wasn't that bad. And I didn't even have my own cell.

So yeah, I think it's hil-freakin-larious!

At least the girl is making her own money instead of living exclusively off of her parents. If I was rich, and famous for it, hell yeah I'd try to make a career out of it. I mean, she's no Ivanka Trump in her chosen career path, but she's doing things.

A self centered entitled bitch that is famous for being a rich daughter of a famous daddy.

That just sounds like jealousy to me. Anyone who hates her for this reason sounds jealous. Yeah she is famous for being rich, partying and being in a sex video but so what.

BTW I did not mean that endangering the lives of others was minor. I compared her crime to more serious crimes such as rape or murder. While driving drunk or on drugs is reckless it lacks the mens rea to be as serious as rape or murder. When there are rapists in my country getting sentences to 2 years for rape and then getting out early on parole then yes I think it's over the top to send her to jail.

Yes and no..she is making her own money..but not for anything she's actually done. LIke Stella McCartney or Sophia Coppola who yes, have a name but also work their ass off and have TALENT. Paris wouldnt have a dime if her last name wasnt Hilton.

Call me a bitch all you want..but damnit...it's the truth

Okay, well chew on this. Nicole Richie was fucked up on pot and pain pills and was busted driving the WRONG way on the freeway and yet she still has her license and is driving around. Do you think that's fair?

Let's be happy that she's seeing a shrink rather than ridicule her for it. Mental health is health too, so please don't discriminate against receiving it. This very well might be the first time in her life she's being counseled by someone other than a PR person, her enabling mommy and daddy who see no wrong in her actions, her party animal friends who likewise have no concerns for anyone else's safety, etc. Perhaps a shrink can help her realize that this was nobody's fault but her own, and maybe, just MAYBE, she'll take responsibility.

She's making her own money now but so what? She doesn't need it and she's doing at the expense of her self-dignity. And, as mentioned above, if her last name wasn't Hilton, she wouldn't even have the chance to have a TV show, so she's even less than worthless. The only way she can make money is by living off her parent's name (and money, which put her into a position to have a PR person, etc).

Why not do something that benefits other people? Charity work? Philanthropy? Instead of making money by making a complete fool of yourself, and lapping up the attention.

Would you hire a PR agency to get your name into the press at every chance? Would you make a complete ass of yourself to get media attention?

I'm MORE than ok with partying your ass off and having fun, I just don't think it's something to be famous for.

How many American soldiers died today? How many Iraqi civilians? How many people were murdered? How many more were slain in the genocide in Darfur? And this bullshit was the top story? Jesus. Who fucking cares.

As would I. I'd like to say I'd use my money and power for good, but in reality I know that if I was born into that life I'd be a spoiled little cokewhore who'd party all the time and do stupid shit and probably end up in rehab. I used to party like that and I didn't have the billions of dollars... with an untapped money supply I'd be absolutely out of control.

I have mixed feelings about this.

It seems LA is notorious for coddling celebrities that fuck up. And while I do agree that Paris is fairly useless and talent-free, I don't think that will directly impact if she becomes a repeat offender.

I also met her, back when I was dancing in New Orleans in 2003. She's nice, but dumb as a brick.

A lot of people out there do dumb shit because they don't think they will ever have to face the potential consequences. Celebrities more so. In this case I think the punishment fits the crime but it might not do much good overall.

Yes, there are more pressing news stories. But they're "depressing". Americans love some good Schadenfreude.

See now if I was insanely rich and from a well known family, I'd be SO well behaved. I'd have enough respect for my family name not to drag it through the mud. But that's just me ;D

Well I dont like drugs and I dont think that would change if I were rich. However I would not work and I would shop, travel, have long lunches with friends all the time.

Would I live off daddy's money? Damn straight.

I know it's not totally the same, but this thread is starting to sound just like the initial thread about Paris when the news of her jail time first came out. And that thread was long and nasty. Let's not go there again.

I just watched "The Queen" last night. Food for thought. Compare the life of Princess Di to Paris Hilton. Diana was born into the aristocracy, a hell of a winning lottery ticket in & of itself, and then got the ULTIMATE title: she married into the royal family, and not just some branch of it, but the direct line to the throne. Literally a PRINCESS. If that's not an excuse to kick back and just enjoy a "ludicrous cocoon of privilege" (to quote the film) for the rest of your life, I don't know what is.

Whatever you might think of Diana's personal problems, she did an incredible job of bringing attention to all kinds of philanthropic causes, and worked very hard at it. I vividly remember her doing work for AIDS charities back in a time when AIDS was absolutely terrifying to the general public. She was notably photographed holding an African baby with AIDS back when people were still asking if you could get it from a handshake. And that's just one example.

So NO. Somehow, miraculously, there ARE ridiculously wealthy people who actually manage to not waste their fortune on being 'spoiled little coke whores'. Diana definitely DID enjoy her money, too; I'm not saying she lived any sort of ascetic life - but look at all the other things she did. She was courageous, and an incredible mother by all accounts, and worked hard for what she believed in. She made it clear that she really did care. She set an example, not only for her own children, but for the entire world.

In comparison? Just one example. (http://fametastic.co.uk/archive/20060314/668/paris-hilton-didnt-pay-for-elton-john-party/)

I never, ever considered myself a "fan" of Princess Di, but if this is her counterpart in the public eye today? A sad state of affairs.

I, too, think it's a farce that this story gets so much attention when there is so much suffering elsewhere in the world. This? Balanced against Iraq? Somalia? BUT. Having different sets of rules and standards for wealthy and privileged people is part of what's wrong with the world in the first place. (Absratct, I know, but that's my opinion.)

Likewise. I'd probably turn into a spoiled little princess and I'd definitely hit Chapel Street with a vengeance on a weekly basis (as well as getting a bunch of surgery). I'd spend a lot of money on my friends though. I already do, during periods of flushness.

I don't think I'd start doing drugs either- I'm just not interested in throwing my brain cells and health away, and I doubt that money would make me stop caring about my health.

When there are rapists in my country getting sentences to 2 years for rape and then getting out early on parole then yes I think it's over the top to send her to jail.

People CAN dislike someone without being jealous of them. I would certainly rather work hard for my money than have it all handed down to me and act in such a way that I deem completely disrespectful to her family and family name. As I said before, she is best served as an example of what not to do. Its not my fault there are people out there willing to give her the time of day just because they will eat up every little thing she does. For what fucking reason? Better to ignore her and let her slip into nothingness. If you call that jealousy, then so be it, that doesn't change the fact that she is a spoiled little self centered undeserving bitch.

So you didn't mean that vehicular homicide caused by being drunk at the wheel is as bad as murder. While one may be pre-meditated, you are seeming to say that killing someone with your car isn't in the same league as murder. While murder may be considered the bigger crime, neither are tolerable in the least.

Plus all these arguments saying how so and so didn't get jail time for what they did which is obviously worse than poor little Paris...

They all should have gone to jail too, THAT is the true injustice. The fact that these rapists and murderers are only getting 2 years and getting out early (which NEVER made sense to me) is an injustice. Not that Paris was going to the special needs section of a federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison. Though I have a feeling considering past exploits she might enjoy that portion of it. The fact is, we shouldn't be arguing whether or not Paris should go to jail, the bitch deserves it. We should be arguing why everyone else is getting treated so leniently, and now wiith her recent release after only a few days, Paris herself is getting treated more leniently than she deserves.

Her recent release from jail is only proving that the rich and "famous" get special treatment. I mean come on, if they didn't, what would the late shows talk about? If Britney, Lindsay and Paris were gone there'd be no stupid people to make fun of anymore.

Yeah, I've kinda already done that with stripping. In my families eyes anyway. They'd much rather me be a jet-setting party girl (which I'm working on ;D ) than someone that grinds on cock for money.

Well, Daddy's money came in handy after all. She got out early to serve the rest of the 40 days in "home confinement" with an ankle bracelet. Because of a mysterious "medical condition" (coughcough-daddy-paid-them-cough).

My dad has an interesting theory that the local Republican leadership (or possibly even Democrat) sprang her so that the media would keep on covering Paris Hilton instead of the amnesty bill. It's a possibility.

No she didnt kill anyone with her car though did she?
No culpible driving causing death is not ok but she did not kill anyone. She did something irresponsible and stupid.

I just dont understand how u can put so much energy into hating a woman that u know nothing about.

Yes she was born into wealth and priviledge, she cant help that anymore than someone can help being born into poverty.
What do u expect her to deny her wealth and go live like the rest of us? What for?

Nobody dislikes her for being rich. There are plenty of very wealthy people who don't get this kind of disrespect. Its because she thinks her money makes her better than everyone, better than the law, and means her life is worth more than others, so it doesn't matter if she endagers others lives. Its not her money we hate, its the attitude it gave her.
