Well, the good news is Paris is back in jail.

How obsessed a nation are we that the media gave almost constant converage to this particular topic when there is so much more going on the the country and the world.

She should never have been allowed out of jail in the first place (has anyone heard if the sherriff faced any consequences for letting her out?) And it is about time a celebrity actually had to face jail time in a real jail - not some swanky "rehab" center that caters to the rich and is basically a country club. Someone previously mentioned that if she wanted to drink and party she should hire a driver. I totally agree. Every time she drove drunk she risked killing herself or someone else. And just how many offenses for dui did she have before actually landing in jail not to mention she was also driving with a suspended license??? Any regular, non celebrity person would have been put in jail by a second offense. She called Barbara Walters on the phone and said she has changed - is reading the bible and other spiritual books while in jail and is now a different person. She now wants to "stop playing dumb" claiming that being dumb was all an "act" and wants to now contribute something to society. Well she drove drunk several times so to me that does not say she is smart. I guess time will tell whether she has learned anything from this adventure. I just wish the judicial system was a little more equitable - everyone was treated the same with no special treatment for being rich and famous.
