Personal details

Name: Paris Hilton
Born: 17/02/1981 (Age: 28)
From: New York, USA
Famous for: She enjoys the high life
Relationship status: Single

In a nutshell

Lovely, pretty Paris is one of our favourite celebs. She constantly seems oblivious to what's actually happening in the real world - and the real stuff doesn't matter anyway, so long as she's got her teeny little doggies and current BFF by her side...

Paris is the oldest of four children and, seeing as we never really hear from the others, the 'least shy' of the bunch.

After working her way through school (yes, she did actually attend!) Paris landed a job as a model, featuring in adverts for vodka and designer clothing brands. All seems to suit.

Of course being a model doesn't get your name in the papers, and Paris has slowly but surely chipped away at our fragile minds by featuring in a host of TV shows (MTV's 'The Simple Life' kicked it all off), starring in the movies (I mean, her character's murder in 'House of Wax' was possibly the only highlight) and generally becoming a daily feature in the tabloids.

Paris' personal life has more ups and downs than San Francisco and, quite frankly, it's hard to keep up. Of course, the thing we all remember - and may possibly have watched? - is her infamous sex tape. Made with then boyfriend Rick Salomon, the tape leaked online in 2003.

It would seem Paris is pretty much up for anything - from recording her own album to having the pick of friends - she won't be going anywhere soon. So it's more a case of TTYL. That's 'talk to you later', dweebs.

  • The police mugshot of Paris Hilton - used to being photographed in far more glitzy circumstances - is one of the enduring images of the decade. 
It came about in September 2006 when the hotel heiress and professional party girl was arrested and charged with drink-driving in California. 
Her licence was suspended and she was hit with a fine and 36 months' 
probation - but her troubles didn't end there. Just months later, in January 2007, Hilton was pulled over for driving without a licence - and the following month, she was held for doing 70 in a 35mph zone, again without a licence. Her daft behaviour eventually earned her 45 days in prison - but after just two tearful days in her cell, officials took pity on blonde Paris, and she was released under orders to spend the next 40 days at home wearing a tag - due to an unspecified medical condition.

HILTON BEGINS JAIL TERM

Socialite PARIS HILTON has begun her 23-day jail term early after turning
herself in to Los Angeles Sheriff authorities last night (03Jun07).
  The star, who was expected to start her time in jail tomorrow (05Jun07), was
driven to the city's Men's Central Jail to surrender to the L.A. County Sheriff
- miles away from the Century Regional Detention Center where she will serve
her sentence - in a bid to avoid the paparazzi.
  Earlier in the evening, Hilton attended the MTV Movie Awards where she
admitted she was "scared but being strong" as she faced her jail term for
violating her probation following a 2006 drink-driving arrest.
  The star rushed to her parents home after the ceremony, before being driven
to downtown L.A. by her lawyer Richard Hutton to turn herself in to the
authorities - accompanied by mum Kathy and sister Nicky.
  The hotel heiress will spend 23 days in the Lynwood jail, where she will
spend 23 hours out of 24 in solitary confinement. Hilton will be allowed to
shower, watch TV and use a phone during the one hour break from her cell.
  In a statement released by Hutton, Hilton says, "I am ready to face the
consequences of violating probation. During the past few weeks, I have had a
lot of time to think and have come to realise I made some mistakes.
  "This is an important point in my life and I need to take responsibility for
my actions. In the future, I plan on taking more of an active role in the
decisions I make. I want to thank my family, friends and fans for their
continued support. Although I am scared, I am ready to begin my jail sentence."
