Paris Hilton proves yet again that she has the hardest working publicist in show business by getting arrested early this morning in LA for driving under the influence.
Paris used the old “it was just one drink” excuse.
Paris was arrested and taken to the LAPD Hollywood division, where she was booked. The officers who stopped the car did not know it was Paris Hilton until they approached the vehicle on foot. Police sources say she was cooperative. Paris had a passenger in the car — Kimberly Stewart, Rod Stewart’s daughter.
Nicky Hilton, her boyfriend, “Entourage” star Kevin Connolly and her publicist Elliot Mintz arrived at the Hollywood police station just before 2 AM PST. A short time later, Paris was released on her own recognizance and allowed to leave.
Mintz told TMZ that Paris had attended a charity event earlier in the evening as well as an Us Weekly magazine party. He said she had a single drink — a margarita — the entire evening and shortly thereafter she was stopped. She was asked to take a breathalyzer test when she was stopped and cooperated. She took a second test at the station.
TMZ spoke with Paris as she was driving home from jail, stopping for Parliament Lights cigarettes en route. She says she “regrets it occurred,” and adds that she has been up for 24 hours, having shot a music video all day. Paris says she had nothing to eat and no rest the entire day.
Looks like Paris isn’t going to cry her way out of this ticket. I’m sure this is as true as the story that some thief took off with all of Paris’ thoughtfullly chosen mother’s day gifts.
Paris is never going to admit responsibility for driving drunk. It’s all because she works so hard, doesn’t eat, doesn’t have time to just slow down and spend her time shopping at Kitson like a normal heiress.
TMZ has a video of Paris arriving home from the station. Her publicist comes out, gives the “one drink, she was tired” spiel, and reports that the breathalizer showed the “absolute lowest” reading that warrants being taken in. He does not get into specific numbers, though.
Paris backed her car into a Honda in a parking lot in mid June, and claimed that the paparrazi were to blame for her poor driving. Now she has no one to blame but herself, but will surely never take responsibility.

Are people really imprisoned for being a tiny bit over the limit if they aren’t involved in an accident? While DUI is obviously a bad thing it’s more of a fine type offence than a prison worthy offence. I’m sure money does rule the US, but I don’t think this is an example of it.
