Hilton Denies Leaking Richie Baby Shower Photos

Paris Hilton has denied leaking photographs of her friend Nicole Richie's recent baby shower party to the media.

The hotel heiress was a hostess at the November 18 "Wizard of Oz"-themed event, held at Richie and her boyfriend Joel Madden's Beverly Hills, Calif., home.

Early last week, several tabloids were offered photos of the party, but none could print the pictures because deadlines had been pushed forward due to the Thanksgiving holiday.

But some suspected Hilton of leaking the images, because she was in each one and they looked "set up" -- a charge Hilton denies.

Her spokesperson says, "Paris was a hostess of the shower, which a large number of people attended. Many of these guests were taking photos with camera phones ... there is no way she had anything to do with this."

Paris Hilton’s Hairy Situation

A report on online site, Famestatic revealed that socialite Paris Hilton was none too pleased with a salon bill of $1,400. The 26-year old heiress to the Hilton fortunes reportedly balked at paying the full price for having Dreamcatcher’s hair extensions added to her locks. Hilton had gone to The Salon in the Beverly Hills Hotel to have the extensions used in a new hairstyle – a lopsided fringe.

Hilton helped to promote the Dreamcatcher’s hair extensions and felt she should get them for free. A compromise was said to have been reached and Hilton ended up paying just half-price for the job.

Paris Hilton to 'Make Millions' Writing Prison Memoirs

By Angela Carson

What will Paris Hilton do once she shows up at the Los Angeles County jail to serve her time? One report claims that the socialite is planning on keeping a prison diary and once it is completed she plans to publish the memoirs and 'make millions' from her effort, the Sun UK reports. Would anyone even buy it? According to the report a source told the British newspaper that:

“There will be details of clashes with prisoners and disgusting meals." The source added, "She thinks this will show she is paying her debt to society.” That may be a poor argument to make.

The prison diary may be a bit boring. Earlier reports have noted that Paris will be spending her time at the Century Regional Detention Facility south of downtown Los Angeles. But she won't see much jail-yard action. She will be confined 23 hours a day to an 8-foot-by-12-foot cell that she most likely will share with another inmate, a police spokesman claims.

In fact she will be placed in a "special-needs" unit designed for such high-profile prisoners as celebrities, former police officers and public officials, Cathy Beers has reported earlier. What's to write about there?

'If Paris can party, she can also show up in court', says Zeta Graff

Washington, May 20 (ANI): Diamond heiress and sometime actress, Zeta Graff, who has filed out a slander suit against Paris Hilton, has lashed out at the socialite’s attempts to postpone the case claiming that she is ‘emotionally distraught and traumatized’ by her impending imprisonment.

Graff, who filed the 10 million dollars suit in 2005 alleging Hilton of spreading lies about her, said that if Hilton can party in the nights, then should be able to turn up for the trial.

"If Ms. Hilton was night clubbing on Saturday night, she should not have been representing to the court on Monday morning that she was unable to participate in the trial," E! Online quoted her, as saying.

"Ms. Hilton should be required to explain her actions and account for them. Under the law, even Ms. Hilton is supposed to be held accountable for her actions," she added.

Last week, Dr. Charles Sophy, a psychiatrist, who examined Hilton, testified in the court that the ‘Simple Life’ star isn’t in a condition to face a trial, and that forcing her to face the trial would ‘exacerbate her current mental condition’.

Judge Linda Lefkowitz postponed the trial date from May 21 to August 22.

Graff sued the 26-year-old for spreading vicious lies about her after the two indulged in an altercation at London's Kabaret nightclub.

According to reports, in 2005, when Graff saw Hilton and Hilton's then fiancé Paris Latsis, who was hooked to Graff, at the club, she went "berserk" after seeing them and tried to choke Hilton and steal her 4 million dollar diamond necklace. (ANI)

A whole 23 days for Paris Hilton

Thirty days in the hole? Hardly. Famed-for-being famous Paris Hilton will serve about half of her original 45-day jail sentence for driving violations and will be separated from the general inmate population. Thursday, based on those numbers, she dropped a pending appeal.

PH will spend about 23 days in a "special needs housing unit" at the Century Regional Detention Center in suburban Lynwood starting June 5 unless there's a change.

Her sentence was shortened after jail officials gave her credit for good behavior; several factors were included in calculating the credit, including appearing for her latest court date.

It's definitely an A-list jail. Hilton will stay in a unit that contains 12 two-person cells reserved for police officers, public officials, celebrities and other high-profile inmates.

Like everyone else in the 2,200-inmate facility, Hilton will get at least an hour outside her cell each day to shower, watch television, participate in outdoor recreation or talk on the phone.

Paris Hilton's Jail Term Cut For Good Behavior

Hilton will serve 23 days in a California detention center's 'special needs housing unit.'

By Shawn Adler

Known for a partying lifestyle and seldom far from a scandal, Paris Hilton isn't often recognized for her good behavior. But jail officials have credited good behavior, including the hotel heiress' appearance at her latest court date, for reducing Hilton's prison sentence from 45 days to at least 23, Los Angeles County sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore announced.

Hilton will serve her time separated from the general inmate population in a "special needs housing unit" at the Century Regional Detention Center in Lynwood, California, The Associated Press reported. These cells are specifically reserved for high-profile inmates — including celebrities, police officers and prison guards — who might otherwise be targeted by fellow prisoners.

As part of her rehabilitation, the 26-year-old socialite will get at least an hour a day outside her cell, where she can participate in activities including showering, talking on the phone and watching TV.

"She will do fine if she follows the rules," Whitmore said, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Hilton's latest legal trouble stems from an arrest for driving under the influence last September (see "Paris Hilton Arrested For Suspicion Of Drunk Driving"). She pleaded no contest, was sentenced to three years probation and subsequently had her license suspended. Hilton was pulled over three times during the period of her suspension, each time violating her probation. She was sentenced to 45 days in jail on May 5 (see "Paris Hilton Sentenced To 45 Days Behind Bars") for violating the terms of her probation.

Lawyers representing Hilton initially said they would appeal the sentence. Her attorneys had not commented on the reduced term as of press time.

0517 Staying In Paris Hilton

Daily Herald

Paris Hilton's pending jail stint is surely going to muck up promotional plans for the launch of E!'s "The Simple Life."

No one at E! will talk about it publicly, but so far they're keeping scheduled appearances in place for the scandal-scarred duo of Hilton and Nicole Richie.

As of Wednesday, Hilton and Richie were scheduled to appear on the June 6 edition of CBS's "Late Show With David Letterman." And Hilton alone is booked for "Live With Regis & Kelly" on June 7.

Insiders said the bookings were still set, but no one would be surprised if she bailed.

That's because, unless her appeal works, Hilton will be wearing prison threads by then.

"Production for 'The Simple Life Goes to Camp' wrapped in early April and will premiere Memorial Day, Monday, May 28, on E!," is all a network spokesman said in a statement. "We wish Paris all the best as she deals with this difficult time."

Hilton is facing a 45-day jail stay for breaking her probation agreement on an earlier DUI infraction.

"I am ready to face the consequences of violating probation," she said in a statement Wednesday.

Hilton off the social circuit and in jail poses problems for the people at E!, who were hoping this season of "The Simple Life" would get an audience jolt because it marked the reuniting of Hilton and Richie.

When the previous season of "The Simple Life" was shot, and aired on E!, Hilton and Richie were not talking. As a result, the two were not on camera together for much of the show. No friendship meant no joint interviews and little advance publicity.

This time around, the tabloid twinkies had made up and were expected to go hand-in-hand to the usual outlets. Recently, they appeared together in People magazine.

"The Simple Life Goes to Camp" follows Richie and Hilton as they lead a bunch of campers who want to become more health-conscious at a wellness camp run by Susan Powter.
