Celebrity heiress Paris Hilton has been jailed for 45 days after being found guilty of violating her probation for a drink-driving conviction.

A Los Angeles judge ruled she must start her sentence on 5 June and has no prospect of an early release.

Ms Hilton told the judge she was very sorry and that she would “pay complete attention to everything” from now on.

The judge didn’t buy it either and told her she’d get 90 days if she didn’t show up for incarceration.

You have to wonder how many guys in LA will now be cross-dressing and committing felonies just to get a shot at Hilton’s ass behind bars.

So much for Tinkerbell Linux (See BeLow).
