Paris Hilton Watch

Concerned father Rick Hilton is desperately searching for someone to pay for daughter Paris’ “get-out-of-jail-party.” According to Hotel Chatter Rick has hit up Pure, The Hard Rock, and The Palms to pay a $50,00 cash fee, as well as pay for accomodations and flights(!) for a party for Paris’ release from jail!

Both Pure, and the Hard Rock have had the good sense to say no. The Palms has not yet given an answer.

Hey, here’s an idea! How about paying for it yourself, Dad?! After all, she is your daughter, you are rich! How about holding it at a Hilton hotel. Or, are those no longer good enough for you? The nerve of these people!

Poor Barbara Walters is actually proud of the fact that she snagged a jail interview with Paris Hilton! The National Ledger reports that Walters getting an interview puts her one up on Rosie O’Donnell, when it had been feared that O’Donnell would take many of “The View’s” viewers with her.

I don’t know, Barbara. I might have let Rosie have this one! Here is one of many of Paris’ amusing quotes from the interview:

“I used to act dumb … That act is no longer cute. Now, I would like to make a difference. God has given me this new chance.

In the first place, I have my doubts about Paris’ being dumb being just an act! And, if it was, it was never cute! And this stuff about wanting to make a difference? Well, we’ll see…

The Washington Post reports that Ms. Hilton is to have another day in court-today at 9:00AM! Apparently, prosecutors and Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer were more than a little upset at Sheriff Lee Baca’s decision to release Paris early. Seems His Honor had specified during sentencing that the heiress was not allowed to serve house detention! And the city attorney has filed a motion demanding that Hilton be returned to jail, and to show cause why Sheriff Baca should not be held in contempt of court! Paris is even getting the sheriff of L.A. County in trouble!

In another story, the National Ledger reports that Rev. Al Sharpton is equally outraged over Paris’ release, saying that it “…gives all the appearances of economic and racial favoritism that is constantly cited by poor people and people of color.” He cites cases of others who handled incarceration badly, and some who had medical conditions, who were not allowed to leave jail early. He also refers to several incarcerations he served himself, at least one of which had health concerns involved.

And Fox News’ John Gibson agrees with Rev. Al, saying:

In fact, when this little rich white girl gets her way by throwing a hissy fit it illustrates that celebrities and rich people can make things happen that others cannot.

I have to say that I agree with Rev. Al and Mr. Gibson on this one! I won’t make any predictions. You never know what the courts will do on this! But I, for one, hope Paris must serve out the rest of her sentence, just like any of us less fortunates would be forced to do!
