Celebrity Justice
Paris to TMZ -- I'm Just an Ordinary Inmate

Paris Hilton has sent a message to TMZ -- she ain't no one special in the pokey.

A rep who visited Paris today said Hilton wants TMZ to know she's being treated like any other inmate, emphasizing she's getting no special breaks.

We're told Paris is spending time reading "The Secret" and "The Power of Now." She's also reading lots of "fan mail" that has been sent to the jail. She says most of the letters are favorable and it's helping her. She's written responses to some of the letters.

421. For quite some time, the TMZ website has been inundated with hypercritical postings regarding Paris Hilton and her family. These postings have outweighed any of the unprejudiced, constructive comments, or information serving the public interest; by a very long chalk. They have consisted, for the most part, of irrelevancies, assumptions, unadulterated poppycock, hypotheticals, and salacious smut.

Amongst this public onslaught, a few objective postings featured a catalogue of “facts” detailing the progression of events from the original apprehension of Paris to the legal proceedings, her non-compliance to judicial matters of form, et cetera, and finally to her incarceration. Although these “facts” cannot be denied, as they are on the court records, police files, and in ‘public information’, they are only part of the proceedings.

Public opinion is deduced from editorial controlled media reports. Media reports, for pragmatic purposes ( amongst others ), omit publishing entire proceedings; as in the Hilton case. Unpublished facts underpinning the basis of the judge’s final decision of law ( i.e., the conviction and sentence ) included the entire proceedings between the defence and prosecution, admissible medical or psychiatric evidence, and in all probability, pre-sentence reports, with recommendations, et cetera. These factors of the proceedings were quite conspicuously absent, subsequently public opinion was formed from only the limited known “facts”.

Paris was then incarcerated, after which some anomalous circumstance occurred shortly afterwards, that brought an additional wave of public abuse against her, the district attorney, and the sheriff. Those bent on assassinating the characters of others, in these circumstances, ought to refer to Article Four, Sec. 2, l.519-21, and Amendments, Article Five, ls. 645-646; of the The Constitution of The United States.

The American judicial procedures, I believe, would be based upon equitable principles and rules. And if any irregularities occur – as appeared to have happened in the Hilton case – the American jurists would be more than capable of letting justice be served - calmly and objectively - without any unnecessary scurrilous outbursts from an hysterical sector of the public.

Paris Hilton has been incarcerated for a misdemeanour, and for failure to observe an instruction of law. She did not commit a felonious crime; there was, fortunately, no victim, yet the apparent magnitude of public condemnation was grossly disproportionate to the offences. When are the anti-Hilton campaigners going to recognize that this matter has been dealt with, and move on to their next celebrity?

423. paris hilton has probably not learned her lesson. she was drinking and driving which could have killed somebody.she is going to go home to that mansion of hers soon and will eventually forget any lesson that was learned. who knows how long she was actually driving drunk and im sure her family thinks she is above the law.she will not be pretty forever and will have nothing to offer people when she turns 50 and the age lines apprear.she will always be rich but won't be smiling,the way she is now.she is a very bad example for young girls and im glad justice was served.i have a feeling that sherrif baca tried to let her out,cause of who she was and i think that he should be in jail too.lets see other inmates get let out for similar reasons. paris hilton must really think that all these fans that she has are dumb.people are blinded by fame, money,celebrity and beauty.paris hilton probably thought that she would completely get off. lets hope when she gets out that she does something decent for the world.

429. To #421 - Jane

For Pete’s sake -- enough of playing the “jealousy card!” There are a number of celebrities who actually have more money than Hilton, and are also very attractive – but both inside and out – and we respect many of them. Have they made mistakes? Absolutely, as have we all. But these individuals share two very important elements that Hilton does not: Talent and character. They have not had to resort to shallow commercialism to gain “stardom.” Actually, unlike Hilton, stardom was never their objective.

We are tired of her tedious media exposure. There are far more interesting people and more important events to both read and learn about!

430. To Father Maximiadis

I am greatly concerned that your comments seem to “play down” what is really going on here. Many of us who are not fans of Hilton do not “judge” her in the ways you seem to imply here, nor are we jealous of the Hiltons’ economic status. The facts speak for themselves. Hilton presents herself as a “role model” for our youth. This is a position she has gone to great lengths to place herself in through her obsession with the media, etc. This causes many of us great concern.

What Hilton did in driving recklessly on two occasions while her license was suspended, and intentionally violating the various terms of her probation is only part of our concern.

The fact that she did not accept blame for her actions and appeared to attempt to manipulate the legal system is quite serious. Let me explain why: Our family lost a 16 1/2 year old young lady -- a beautiful, bright, energetic person with much to offer the world – to a reckless driver who was clearly at fault. The driver of the other car, like Hilton, tried to manipulate the legal system in the way we see Hilton doing now. Hilton – and others like her – must being to accept responsibility for their actions. To do otherwise is a travesty.

We will not address Hilton’s other lifestyle choices, although many others have in very unflattering terms. As for our opinions of Hilton, they are based not on looks or economic status, but on character…or, in this instance the lack thereof. To accept Hilton as a role model for our youth is really quite unacceptable, if not ludicrous.

431. First of all, why the hell do you judge Paris Hilton like this? Why do you people just OVERJUDGE her completely? She is not a plastic Barbie doll, she’s not a robot. Paris has feelings, just like all of you…most of you. And she is celebrity. Do you think that it’s fair that she gets picked on the most? There are heaps and heaps of other celebrities to pick on, why Paris?

I, myself, am a big fan of Paris. You might have heard this before, but you WILL hear this again – PARIS HILTON IS MY IDOL. Yes, Paris – I hope you can hear this, because I really want you to know how every single day I look up to you. How every single night when you were in jail that I prayed to god that he would make a miracle happen, how every minute of my time when I was supposed to be doing my homework I searched all of the internet for your email address so I could write to you. I guess this website was my last hope.

And I’m not just stopping there. You see, I don’t care about the things people tell me about Paris; I don’t care what my parents say; I don’t care about the bad things she has done…you just have to accept her as a person. She is a human being, and she is very pretty, and I don’t care what people say about her being ugly…because she isn’t. If you want to hear REAL bad insults about this poor girl, go to www.howtokillparishilton.com I find this website extremely offending and the only times I visit it is when I have to yell and shout back at all the haters and tell them how good Paris is, and how they are so wrong about her.

I heard that Paris cries after reading all your stupid, nasty comments. Seriously, why do you do this to her? It’s so rude. I knew that if I read that people were calling me names I would cry, too. Go pick on someone else.

Paris, I am really glad you are out of jail, because I, with all my heart, believed that you never deserved to go in there in the first place. I hope you are reading this, and I hope you understand how much I love you as a celebrity and how I want you to be very successful in your life, which you already are and will continue to be. If you want to email me (I’m sure you’ll be busy, but just in case) I would love to hear from you, of course I would! Email to cute_sugar_sweet@hotmail.com

Because no one has the right to disrespect and offend you in this way.
And you’re a really good singer – I don’t care what people say, you are. I like the way you sing. You have a nice voice and you don’t shout in your songs. The band that really annoys me with their songs is 30 Seconds to Mars. How can you listen to all that shouting? Seriously, you have to be the best singer there is. I like your Pop songs. My favourites are Stars are Blind; Nothing in this World and Jealousy. Simple life is awesome, your dogs Tinkerbell; Bambi; Harajuko Bitch and Tokyo Blue are adorable. And I never knew you did so much charity work…you’re amazing. Keep up the great work; I will support you for the rest of your life!
Love, ♥♥♥ Vicki

432. Vicki, please enlighten me. Please tell me of all the charity work paris does.

Oh, and go clean your room, it's almost bedtime

433. From some of the fans postings, one would think they knew Paris personally and was a real good BFF of hers. But I doubt that very seriously. Paris has no idea who they really are and could care less, except to get a fawning fan letter from them which will once again make Paris think that because Vicki thinks she is some of talent, looks and talent, then it must be true.

One fan stated that "Paris cries after read your stupid nasty comments" huh! Yeah right. Her parents shield this girl from anything derrogatory so she will still believe that the whole worlds thinks of her they same way they do, as the "American Princess" (almost threw up typing that!).

Paris has no clue as to just how real people feel about her. (Notice, I said real people, as those of you who are "fans" do not live in the real world, but some kind of made up Barbie type fantasy world - you call it Hilton World).

No, we do not hate Paris because she is rich and can play with the "big dogs".

As a matter of fact, it we really do not hate Paris the flesh and blood. Nor do we resent her.

However, our feelings are one of absolute disgust at what she represents and how strongly she is sucking in many young innocent girls to believe that the way she lives (a shallow existence at best) is just exactly how they want their lives to be.

So, let us go over just how Paris lives and then come back and tell you this is how you want to live:

1) from the day she was born was told on a daily, if not hourly basis, that she is destined to become the American version of Princess Diana.

2) was never, ever, ever disciplined for anything. In fact, every thing she did, from her first "NO" to her first bowel movement was thorougly praised, each and every time she did/said these things.

3) her every day was consumed with things like shopping at the elite stores, never, ever anything less.

4) learned very, very well from her parents how to manipulate every one around her. Learned early on just how money was "made" (if you can call it made - certainly not earned) - anytime there was a desire for a party for anything (and every little thing) you were to call a famous restaurant/night club/hotel/casino and put your name in at all of them to see who would fork up the biggest bucks for the honor of you holding your party at their place (gawd, had to pause to rush to the bathroom and puke!)

5) revel in attention like it was something that is supposed to happen to her from the first "wah" out of Momma's womb (my goodness, the truly rich and famous people truly seek privacy - not unwarranted publicity!)

6) have meaningless sex with every rich guy that would drool over her (and contract some really nasty sexually transmitted disease that is uncurable, only treatable - something to live with for the rest of your life.

7) video tape yourself in various acts of sex - and now they are all over the internet for all to see.

8) party at any club that is willing to pay for your presence - and party hard and every night

9) never ever have to clean up after yourself, there is always someone else to pick up those dirty clothes (except for panties - none to be seen anywhere in your place of residence) you just remove and drop on the floor where you stand

10) never learn how to cook even the simplest things, like boiling water.

11) always have a body guard around you at all times, and I do mean at all times.

12) because your parents tell you that everything you do is cute and never, ever tell you when you have really done something wrong (cause they tell you that it was cute) you never learn the difference between right and wrong. HOWEVER as you grow up, it is just human common sense to see for yourself some of the basic rights and wrongs - like no one has to tell you that if you kill someone else that is wrong or that if walk into a bank and tell them to give you all their money, that that is wrong. These are the biggies, but there are even some of the small ones that you would realize on your own. NOW you are grown but you feel you are not meant to have to abide by even those little ones that in your heart you know are wrong, cause you got money.

13) every time you do something that your parents have told you while growing up was cute, but now in the real world you find you have done something that those awful other people say is wrong and want to punish you for it, your Mommie and Daddie go to these awful people and say "hey, how about a few big ones and then you can tell Paris you made a mistake and she did not do anything wrong".

14) quit school long before your senior year in high school and then have no job skills. So, Daddy, so others will think of you as responsible and respectible, creates a line of perfumes and jewelry so you and sis will have something with your name on it (but, you won't have to lift a finger to do one single thing, except to put on pretty clothes and prance out to get your pics taken so you can say, this is your company) and can say you do work for a living (ok, now I have a big bucket on the floor beside me cause I just can't keep from puking at the drop of a hat with this sickening truth). But, now because your name is getting out there cause of your money and fanc for a good time, you can sell yourself (actually sell your soul) to companies with products they want associated with you (for the love of gawd, I cannot fathom why). But you are still not lifing your finger except to sign your name to some legal paper (do you even read them, can you even read them - you could be selling off your unborn babies for all you know) and dress pretty to get your picture taken.

Well, that is exactly what Paris' life is like. While all you fans are seeing the glamour and money in her life, you are not seeing the lack of morality and ethics in her life. And believe you me, those two things mean more in life than anything else Paris does have in her life.

I would not trade my lower middle class lifestyle for her lifestyle for anything in the world. Cause I am honest, law abiding, truthful, compassionate, respectful and always think of others before myself.

Nope, the Hiltons or any other rich person could come up to me today and offer me any amount of money to come and lead their lifestyle and I would not. First off, I did not EARN it (a word Paris knows nothing about). Secondly, I really like living a life where I can go anywhere and not be hounded by the press. And I know that in the end, all the material things in the world mean squat.

When I reach the end of my days, I have something to bring to the everafter with me. Integrity, honor, truth, belief in the almighty God (not the kind the you believe in on Easter, Christmas, any religious holiday or when you are in trouble),

And our God does not take kindly to those who come to the pearly gates and all they have to offer are their worldly possessions. That does not buy your way into heaven.

Oh I am ever so happy to be sitting here in my little 1800 sq ft 1950's house in a dairy community on the outskirts of the Los Angeles area, only recently put in central a/c (had window unit before), driving a late model Honda with no radio (also own a 6 yr old minivan), husband retired, me going back to work at 59 to have medical coverage.

Nope, I would not trade one day of my life for any of Paris'. I do not desire to have her money or fame. I like my life, like who I am and do not fawn (nor ever have) over anyone.

While no one else here who comes to comment gives an inkling of their age, I would suspect that the fans are from 15-25. If you are a fan and older than that, then you really, really need to get a life. Step out of your pretend world, get a real job, find a group of friends who are not shallow.

And I would also suspect that many fans are from anywhere but the Los Angeles area cause they really have not a clue about the shallowness of a lot of the celebrities out here.

I had the opportunity to do Rodeo Drive one day several years ago. My sister was out from the South and through her work, she had contacts that had their office building just a few blocks from Rodeo Drive. She wanted to go in and meet these people. So I drove her in. She thought it would be great to do Rodeo Drive. I told her, I would take her in, but no way was I at all interested in doing/seeing the Rodeo Drive crowd. While she was in with her business contacts, I walked all around, but purposely avoided Rodeo Drive.

Could careless about seeing/spotting anyone famous. Could care less what Rodeo Drive was like. Could care less about drooling over all those over priced goods that are up for the rich (and really snotty and stupid-for-overpaying-for-designer brand goods people).

Do I follow Paris' every article in the newspaper/media? No. I came to TMZ because I am outraged at California/Hollywood's stupidity in turning a blind to the rich and famous out here. Drunk driving should not be a simple fine/slap on the wrist. It should be dealt with firmly and with a goodly amount of time in jail at the first offense. Paris was lucky. She has never been involved in an accident where someone got hurt, or God forbid, killed. And she could well go through her life driving under the influence and be so lucky.

BUT she might not be so lucky if she continues to DUI. And she needs to come forward and admit admit each and everything that she did wrong that lead her to the point where she was sentenced to jail.

I stand up and applaud the Judge for his good sense to (as you fans so blantantly put it) make an example out of Paris.

It was about time that someone was made an example of so the party crowd out here would sit up and take notice and hopefully deter them from doing the same.

And if it was some who should be held up as an example, who better than Paris. After all, her days in jail were days spent wasting away her life, just as her days at home, she is wasting away her life.

Get a grip people. The real world is about responsibility, accountibility (a word that the Rick Hilton family has not a clue), and kindness to all, regardles of color, religion or background.

Should I ever pass Paris on the street, I am sure to her I would be just a bad fart. To me, she is a human being just like everyone else. However, it is her lifestyle and her personality that is a real travesty.

As to her wanting to do good and perhaps starting some kind of charity in her name - there you go. Just something else so her name will get out there for the public to see. If she really means what she says that she is changed and wants to do some good, then she needs to NOT start a charity, but work WITH a charity. And not just hosting money making parties. I mean realllllly working with them. If it is a cause related to diseases, then she needs to go out to the hospitals to see people with the disease. She needs to go to the homes of these families and see what it is like to have to have all your finances drained to pay for medical treatment.

If it a cause for animals, say humane society, then she needs to go out 3-4 times a week to human societies in the great Los Angeles are and outskirts and go in and volunteer her time to clean out the animal cages and provide a few hours of companionship to these poor animals.

Whatever cause she takes up, her time should be well spent, not just giving or going to parties for fundraising. She really needs to WORK for the cause. And do it without any media at all. Do it discreetly and totally undercover. I do think, though that it would be good after she has fully become embedded in the cause, to have one very respectible magazine/newspaper/network station (you notice, I said respectible!) do a piece about her charity. NOT a piece about her and her charity.

I know this is long, but I really hope everyone who comes here reads it. There is some really relavant and important messages in it.

434. I feel sorry for Paris she has no idea what life is really about, and how
could she with the all the attention she gets just because of her name
it's sad she'll never have a private moment.
