I’ve been following the Paris Hilton story since it first broke that she would be doing some time. Not electronic monitoring. Not community service. Not work release but actual jail time for violating her probation. While I am not rejoicing in her going to jail, I feel satisfied with the judge’s decision to make her do time. If any other ordinary citizen breaks the law, we suffer the consequences. So, why does Paris think she’s so different? Because she’s Paris Hilton, of course.

She’s the celebutante who is “famous” for doing nothing. Since the Simple Life first came out, I have rolled my eyes at the stupid antics she’s orchestrated to remain famous. I shook my head when her sex tape got leaked to the public. I asked myself why is Paris constantly strutting the red carpet and calls herself a “Hollywood starlet” when she’s only made one film, the House of Wax, in which she plays herself. I cried in horror when she made her “singing debut” and released her album. Maybe it’s her “I’m better than you” attitude that initially polarized me from the beginning, but over the years, it’s become more than that. Paris Hilton is a racist, has no morals, lacks intelligence, and has gotten on my nerves since I first started hearing about her. I have wished she would just go away, like much of the public. Now, it looks like we’ve gotten our wish…at least for 45 days.

What annoys me with Paris is that she refuses to accept any responsibilities for her actions. She messed up, not her publicist. So instead of saying, “I broke the law. I didn’t do what I was suppose to do, and now I have to face the consequences of my actions.” she blames it all on her publicist! Last time I checked, Paris is a grown woman…at least in terms of her age. I mean, she is 26 years old, believe it or not. If Paris relied on her publicist to take care of her legal problems, then it’s her fault for “not knowing she didn’t have a suspended license,” not her former publicist.

The problem is, she’s a spoiled rich girl who thinks she can buy or talk her way out of anything. Rumor has it that there is a free Paris campaign addressed to the Govinator: a two-page letter so he can get Paris out of her jail sentence. If Arnold was smart, he’d stay out of this. I mean, this is a judicial matter. Paris does not deserve any special treatment according to a MSNBC poll. She broke the law, and now it’s time for her to pay like an ordinary citizen. Like many, I’m sick and tired of celebrities getting lean sentences and breaks. They have enough people coddling up to them. The judicial system should not bend in favor of celebrities because they’re rich and famous. If any ordinary citizen was in the same boat, we would have been nabbed by the system long ago. Paris just needs to “woman up” and accept responsibility for her mistakes. She broke the law, and now she has to pay for it, at last. If Lil Kim and Martha Stewart had to do some jail time, then Paris Hilton should, too. She’s no better than those two celebs, and she’s certainly no better than the rest of the population. Instead, Paris got away with violating her probation several times before it finally caught up to her. Now she’s crying because she’s being treated unfairly. Um, you mean like an ordinary person, Paris? Welcome to the real world.
