Jailbird Paris

Paris Hilton is doing time in the big house, that’'s the big news this week. Apparently, she has been convicted for DUI while on probation for an earlier offence. Obviously, the paparazzi is having a field day with her at the courthouse, what with her making a personal appearance together with her parents and lawyer.

I’m pretty sure no one wants to do time in the slammer, whether it's a real prison, lockup, county jail or Alcatraz, but more so for a celebrity like Paris. But as they say on the streets, don’t do the crime if you can't do the time.

Which makes me wonder, with the parole and all and being filthy rich, couldn't her parents have gotten her a chauffeur? No, really, think about it. She probably has a bodyguard (not to mention a small entourage) so why not a driver? So she can go anywhere without driving. It's not like she is us, who have to drive everywhere ourselves and pay for petrol and toll and all.
