Do You Sort Of Feel Bad For Paris?

Yes, Paris Hilton did some bad stuff and that's why she's in jail. However, do you think the media is being too hard on her? Everyone makes mistakes and that's hard enought to face, but she has the whole country fighting against her. Once she gets out, people will be slamming her from all sides. That's hard enough for anyone.





What happened between her and the system, should be left between the two of them. Yes, she may have screamed and cried, but ulitmately the legal system made the final call. Not Paris.





She is just being shuffled back and forth. Do you think she is sort of a scapegoat for a corrupt legal system? Yes, she got out b/c of her celebrity status, but ulitmately the legal system let her go.





What do you think? Do you sort of feel bad for this girl? I would probably be crying my eyes out if I were in jail. I'm not rich or famous.





Do you feel bad for her at all?

Do You Sort Of Feel Bad For Paris?
I think she should stop acting like a spoiled rotten little brat and take responsibility for her actions.
Reply:NO.





This person craves attention. She gets paid between $7 - $10 million a year for doing NOTHING except show up at a society event wearing designer clothing, getting photos taken while trotting around.





She WANTED the attention, like it or not, she has got it for good OR for bad.





She has no choice but to SUCK it up now.
Reply:Hell no. She's had everything handed to her her whole life--overall, she's still way better off than most of us.
Reply:so what if she is famous and rich, she screwed up royally and is now paying the price. it must suck to be dragged back and forth but the guyhad no right to over rule the decision made by the judge. i have no sympathy for paris hilton she should be so lucky to have to hang in jail for 3 weeks. she should really take this time to smarten up and thank her lucky stars that she didnt kill anyone. it was her own stupidity that got her there : don't drink and drive what is her excuse for doing it? she couldnt get a chauffer or a taxi ? it was plain ignorance.
Reply:no she shouldn't be treated any different than joe public do the crime do the time
Reply:Sorry? For that spoiled little tramp?? I hope she comes out of prison with a teardrop tattooed on her face.
Reply:Nobody is making a fuss about the unknown drunk driver who was just sentenced to jail. Everybody wants equality until it is an inconvenience for them.
Reply:I don't fell bad for her at all. She is simply being treated like any other person out there, but her problem is that she has no common sense. Why do I say this? Well here's a hypothetical: I get pulled over driving erratically. I get a DUI. In a few weeks, when my DUI has had time to go through the system, I get a letter. This letter says that my license is suspended. RED FLAG!!! I realize that I can't drive until I take measures to get my license back. Even if I am a rich heiress who doesn't read my mail, then the person who does read my mail should let me know that I shouldn't drive. Well, say they don't, and I'm out driving. I get pulled over, and the officer explains to me that my license is suspended, and that I can't drive. I sign a written warning that says I am not supposed to be driving. I have my own copy of this warning. Well, I ignore it and keep driving, and then get pulled over again. This time, I get a ticket for driving with a suspended license. I have to go to court.





DO you honestly think that any judge is going to have sympathy for me? Do you think anyone else should have sympathy for me?? NO!!!!





The smart thing to do---the common sense thing to do---would have been when I found out that my license was suspended, to have someone else drive me. Especially if I were a rich heiress----Her family probably has a driver on their personal staff. Then she wouldn't have had any of these problems.





So, no, I don't feel bad for her.
Reply:Nope, I don't feel bad at all. She brought this all on herself. If she didn't want publicity she shouldn't have tried to become a star. She is not above the law just because she is rich, famous and blonde.
Reply:No I dont feel bad for her. She's getting a reality check. Just because she's rich and famous doesn't mean she can break the law and get off scot free. Ordinary people can't.





Its about time that girl grew up - maybe she will now
Reply:I don't feel sorry for her, but the media has many more important things to talk about and inform the nation about than another spoiled celebrity brat.
Reply:If she wants to play with the system, then she should be prepared to pay the consequences. Just because she is rich is no excuse to be exempt from the same laws and penalties that affect working-class people.
Reply:She VIOLATED PROBATION and needs to pay the penalty. In Indiana, she would be looking at 12-18 months.
Reply:1. DUI = danger to others = jail


Law is same for all.





2. For a celebrity, any publicity is good publicity.


She's not running for an office, she's trying to sell some CDs and T-shirts.





3. She's shuffled back and forth b/c she's tying to use her money and status to get out. If she wasn't a celeb, she'd be doing her time quietly





4. Media attention is part of being a celeb. She chose to be a celeb (not like she was born poor like Britney), so she can't complain.
Reply:She's lucky to have an opportunity to mature with the support of people she loves and who love her. I'd feel sorry 4 her if she didn't have a mom %26amp; dad %26amp; sisters %26amp; friends.





I am very against drinking %26amp; driving ... so my sympathy card isn't tallying up for her behaviors on this one. Especially since she is 26 ... a year older than when most auto insurance co.'s lower the insurance for maturity reasonings.
Reply:yes i do feel for her.


but you can't erase all the bad things you have done.


they are like a purple stain in a white shirt.


no matter how much you scrub it there's always going to be a mark there.


but seriously, some part of me doesn't quite forgiven what she has done. she is rich, she has lots of money. wealth that many people would die to have. she takes that for granted and mocks people just because she is so beautiful and rich. i bet she wouldn't even care if all the poor people died. maybe her experience in jail will change her to a better person.





because although a person may have looks and money doesn't guarentee she is a good person.


i rather be ugly and poor but have a smart brain and a good heart.





you are hearing this from a 13 year old.
Reply:no, i do not. just like everyone else says, she broke the law, she should be in jail. paris is a nothing. rich, yes. but she is famous for partying!?!?! what's up with that? i have 0 respect for her. what about the other celebrities (Martha Stewart comes to mind) that did their time quietly and with dignity? paris needs to grow up and learn from this. although i seriously doubt she will. we'll see.
Reply:nope!
Reply:I applaud the judge for his resolute. I don't feel sorry for her. She violated her driving ban.....it shows she thinks she's above the law. This jail term is to teach her and all other celebrities/millionaires that she/they is/are not above the law. Why the kicking, crying and screaming? it's just 45 days! If she has class, breeding and dignity, she should serve the jail term with remorse for her offense and move on with her life .......for the better hopefully.
Reply:No, she committed the crime. Most who get there probation violated have to see the remaining time behind bars.You can bet if you did this that's exactly what would happen.
Reply:um...........NO!!
Reply:no, she is not good enough to be a scapegoat for a "corrupt legal system"





if the legal system was really corrupt then she would still be out breaking more laws.





she deserves what she's getting no one forced her to drink and drive
Reply:everybody knows that she's a spoiled ***** anyways, so why bother asking?? she deserves what she is going through right now....nic richie didnt make all this raucous when she was sent to prison herself.. gosh, i hate paris...
Reply:I only feel bad that she got taken out of jail, just to be put back in, however she did deserve to go back into jail, since she could have killed people. The only reason it is unfair is that being taken back after being let go would be terrible! Celebrities are role models, like it or not, so they should be punished to the full extent of the law, to be an example. They choose the life they have and with choices come responsibilities!
Reply:NO I don't. I am sorry the system let her out in first place and then changed their mind...but she isn't any better than us "ordinary hard working" people who do work our butt off and aren't rich...we'd be in jail so she should be in jail.....have no sympathy for anyone who drinks and drives...its our friendsa and families that killed by those idiots.
Reply:Yeah, it's too bad she can't be a simple entitled worthless Celebrity Whore without all the darn negativity.
Reply:nope...she did the crime...so she can do the time





She shouldn't get off easy just because she's rich...YOU wouldn't.
Reply:I don't feel a bit sorry for her. She's a spoiled little rich girl that thinks she can do what ever she wants because of who she is. It's time she finds out what it's like in the real world.
Reply:hell no
Reply:I don't feel sorry for her because if you do the crime you have to pay the time. I think it's sad that they've bounced her around between prison and her home. She will make it through this and being a stronger person for it. I like Paris Hilton, but I don't like people who drive around drunk and can potentially kill my loved ones.
Reply:I don't feel bad for the fact that she got convicted, because yes, the law IS the same for all, or should be.... drunk and reckless driving is a very serious offense and it should be punished.





But I do feel bad for how the media and public is after her, showing her crying on television and all that. That is *not* part of her sentence, to be publicly humiliated. One could even argue it makes for a 'cruel and unusual' punishment. People who aren't celebrities aren't shown on the news and publicly ridiculed in addition to their jail sentences!!!
