I just posted this link on another thread, but thought it deserved it's own... so Paris is going back to jail, supposedly to serve out the ENTIRE 45-day sentence! I don't usually like to gloat about someone's misfortune, but the spoiled little princess deserves it. My sister was almost killed by a drunk driver when she was only 6, and still has medical problems because of it - so this isn't something I take lightly, no matter how famous you are. I'm also hoping this sends a message to the other pampered celebrities (and anyone else), who seem to think it's okay to put our lives in danger. Anyway, here's the story from Yahoo:

I flipped the news on (at home today).

I was yelling at the tv like a football game "go on, lock da b**** up!" lol

My neighbors probably think I'm nuts, not that this is new.

But, but then who will provide us with beauty and excitement to most of our otherwise mundane lives?

Gooooooood!

No more preferential treatment towards women and rich people! Now we can go back to being a fair and just society without all this faux equality BS that the most radical feminists seem to love

What I don't understand is why the news networks today treated this like it was breaking news. Give me a break! They sit there on the television talking about how the PUBLIC is obsessed with her. NO. I have news for them, it's THEM obsessed with her. The public is wishing they would talk about something else!

In a way you are right, but Americans want to see celebrities treated the same way as everyone else.

I disagree.

Americans love to see celebrities made an example of. Is it jealousy or bitterness? I really don't know.
