Paris Hilton Sentenced to 45 Days in Jail

Paris Hilton, the Hotel heiress and "celebutante" of the Simple Life was sentenced to 45 days in jail for violating her probation. Paris Hilton was given probation after an alcohol-related reckless driving offense earlier in the year.

Paris Hilton has been ordered report to jail by June 5. Paris will not be granted any work release, furloughs, use of an alternative jail or electronic monitoring in lieu of jail, or any other common "special accommodations" which celebrities often receive (www.forbes.com). Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer was the judge in the case.

"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," Paris Hilton plead to Judge Sauer before her sentencing (www.mlive.com).

On January 15, Paris Hilton was pulled over by a California Highway Patrol officer. The officer informed her that she was driving on a suspended license and she signed a document acknowledging that she was not to drive (www.forbes.com).

Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies also stopped Paris Hilton on February 2. This was when Hilton was charged with violating her probation. Paris was allegedly speeding and driving with her headlights off at about 11:00pm.

In court, Paris testified that she thought her license was suspended for 30 days and that she was allowed to drive for work purposes during the next 90 days, which was the time period in which the arrest occurred (www.mlive.com).

When asked about the document she signed in January acknowledging the suspension, Paris Hilton said, she thought he was mistaken and did not actually look at the document (www.forbes.com).

Paris had also failed to enroll in alcohol-abuse classes which were mandated by the court. Paris is one of a string of celebrities charged with alcohol-related infractions. She is one of the first recently to actually be sentenced to jail time.

Britney Spears left rehab on Wednesday after spending only one day there, according to reports, just a week after she spent the same amount of time at a different facility.

The television news magazine "The Insider" initially reported that Spears called a car service, walked out of the Promises Residential Treatment Centers in Malibu, Calif., and left the facility early Wednesday morning, far short of the usual 45-day stay.

Later, the TV show "Extra" and the Web site TMZ.com said Spears, 25, had left the center.

The troubled pop star and mother of two tried to get into a tattoo parlor before going home, but it was closed, "Extra" reported.

Spears checked into rehab Tuesday after a bizarre weekend that included shaving her own head and getting new tattoos.

Photographs showed a bald Spears on the grounds of the rehab center, smoking a cigarette and wearing a punk-rock style pink tank top emblazoned with the word "delicious."

Spears' manager, Larry Rudolph, told People magazine's Web site that Spears had voluntarily checked herself into a treatment facility.

Paris Hilton enters not guilty plea in Drunk Driving case

An attorney for Paris Hilton entered not guilty pleas on her behalf Tuesday to charges of misdemeanor driving under the influence.

Hilton, 25, wasn't required to appear in court.

She was arrested in Hollywood in September. Police said they saw her "driving erratically" and pulled her over for a field sobriety test.

The judge set a pretrial hearing for Jan. 23 and said the trial must begin by Feb. 23.

If convicted as a first-time offender, Hilton would likely face a fine, enrollment in an alcohol-rehabilitation program and a possible license suspension, according to prosecutors.

Hilton has starred with sometime-friend Nicole Richie in the reality TV show "The Simple Life."

Britney Spears parties with Paris Hilton, leaves underwear at home

They have already been dubbed "The Brit Pack": three girls, increasingly famous for making spectacularly bad choices, marshaling their collective brain power to navigate the booths and banquettes at Hyde or Spider Club or wherever it is they're drinking it off on any given night.

Paris Hilton, her frenemy Lindsay Lohan and newly separated Britney Spears: three party girls without a care (babies? what babies?), a high tolerance for alcohol or a good publicist.

In the past week, Spears who has a 1-year-old and 2-month-old at home has spent every single night partying with Hilton (and, occasionally, Lohan).

A quick study, Spears long absent from the scene, what with being married and pregnant and all has already picked up such "It" girl tricks as how to make sure your picture winds up everywhere.

Such as, don't wear underwear and flash your crotch while pretending you hate the paparazzi and tearfully begging for them to leave you alone.

After dumping Kevin Federline, Spears seemed like she was on the upswing: She cut her hair. She looked like she was bathing regularly. She celebrated her separation with some wholesome ice-skating at Rockefeller Center and even more wholesome shopping for chunky sweaters and beanie caps! at the Gap. She started recording her comeback album, working late nights at the Sony studios in Manhattan.

Then she took off for a Vegas weekend, where she reconnected with old friend Hilton, and then Lindsay Lohan started angling to get in on this power clique, which she eventually did, and now all is well and the trio go clubbing every night, smoking and drinking and having dance-offs.

Meanwhile, Spears and Hilton have been tapped to co-host the Billboard Music Awards at the MGM Grand on Monday, the New York Post's Page Six column reported.
